Dawn of the Brave is the fifth studio album by the German a cappella metal band Van Canto. It was released on February 7, 2014. The album contains nine own compositions and four covers.

Contents

For the first time since their debut album, there have been no guest musicians performing in any of the tracks. However, an ensemble of 200 fans were invited to record a choir for some tracks. In the album is included "Crazy Train" from Ozzy Osbourne but is not in the track list.

Two videos were released for the album: One for "Badaboom", which features the members and other invited people dressed as metal musicians such as Lars Ulrich and Tony Iommi; and another for the Annie Lennox cover "Into the West".

The album was also released in a special earbook edition, containing many pictures of the band and of the 200 fans who recorded vocals for the album, the regular CD, the bonus CD with orchestral versions and remixes of some van Canto songs and a bonus DVD with their performance at the 2011 Wacken Open Air.
