'''''Parallels''''' is the upcoming ninth studio album by American rock band The Signs set to be released on March 4, 2016.

The album was recorded between January and June of 2015 in Los Angeles and Malibu, California. The lead single "Parallels" was released on November 13, 2015.

Recording and production for ''Parallels'' took place between January and June of 2015 in undisclosed studios in Malibu and Los Angeles, California. Most of the writing and pre-production for the album took place whilst the band touring on the Forgetting Everything World Tour in late 2014. Despite having told the media that the band would be going on an indefinite hiatus from touring and recording music together, frontman Matt Flynn spoke about a possibly ninth album with Billboard magazine, saying "I think we have enough material to record three albums worth of music. These songs aren't just me this time. We have been contributing as a band should which feels great." The band concluded their Forgetting Everything World Tour in South America in January 2015 and secretly began recording ''Parallels.''

On November 11, 2015, the band announced that they would be releasing their single, titled "Parallels", along with the announcement of their ninth studio album and its details. On November 13, the band announced that ''Parallels'' would be released through Roadrunner Records on March 4, 2016. On November 16, the band announced a 2016 world tour with X Ambassadors and Awolnation.
