The Hill is the fifth studio album by American country musician Aaron Lewis. The work was released on March 29, 2024 through The Valory Music Company.

Critical reception

Antimusic states "Featuring 10 tracks penned solo or with a close circle of collaborators/confidants, the set speaks to a time of upheaval in the wider world" going on to say that "it's raw in the purest sense of the Country-rock term - often backing his jagged-edge vocal with just a guitar, dobro and mandolin".

Lorie Hollabaugh of MusicRow describes the work as "A deeply personal set written from a lifetime of highs and lows" going on to profess that "it pairs Lewis’ iconic vocal rasp with a bare-bones acoustic sound, and features 10 tracks penned solo or with a tight circle of collaborators".
