The British post-hardcore band Svalbard have released four studio albums, one compilation album, three extended plays, three split releases, eleven singles and thirteen music videos. The band were formed in Bristol in 2011 by co-lead vocalists and guitarists Serena Cherry and Liam Phelan with drummer Mark Lilley, whom they recruited after hearing him play at a rehearsal studio. The band went through numerous bassists before settling on Matt Francis in 2020.

Svalbard released its self-released its epynomous debut extended play in May 2012, followed by the Gone Tomorrow EP in February 2013. Their third extended play, Flightless Birds , was released in October of that year through Tangled Talk Records. Svalbard developed a relationship with Pariso after touring together in 2013, leading to the release of a split EP in 2014 and their signing to Holy Roar Records, owned by Pariso guitarist Alex Fitzpatrick, in January 2015. The following month, Holy Roar released Discography 2012–2014, compiling all of the band's recorded output up to that point.

Svalbard released their first and second studio albums, One Day All This Will End (2015) and It's Hard to Have Hope (2018), through Holy Roar. In September 2020, after Fitzpatrick was accused of sexual misconduct, Svalbard split from the label and signed to Church Road Records a week prior to its release of their third album When I Die, Will I Get Better?. The album brought Svalbard to the attention of Nuclear Blast Records, who signed the band in June 2022 and reissued their back catalogue. In October 2023, the band released their fourth album, The Weight of the Mask.
