Science, Not Fiction is the tenth studio album by English heavy metal band Orange Goblin. The album was released on 19 July 2024 by Peaceville Records. It is the band's first album to feature bassist Harry Armstrong, who joined after the retirement of founding bassist Martyn Millard in 2021. Reviewers noted lyrical content of a more serious nature than on the band's previous albums, with a focus on religion, science, and spirituality, plus a taste of sarcasm and a voice of reason among modern political discussions. The new lyrical outlook was inspired by singer Ben Ward's adoption of a healthier lifestyle.
