The Record is the debut studio album by American indie rock supergroup Boygenius, consisting of Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus. It was released on March 31, 2023, through Interscope Records.

The Record received critical acclaim, and was awarded perfect scores by the likes of DIY, NME and Rolling Stone. It went on to top the charts in Ireland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, marking the first number-one album for all band members, and peaked at number four on the Billboard 200.

After releasing their debut self-titled EP Boygenius in 2018, the trio had since been working on their solo projects and had all released their respective albums—Little Oblivions by Julien Baker, Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers, and Home Video by Lucy Dacus—before performing as a group for the first time in 3 years on November 19, 2021. Rumours about a debut album from Boygenius began spreading in late 2022–2023, after the trio was spotted in a photoshoot together in November 2022 and after Boygenius was announced to be on the 2023 Coachella lineup on January 10, 2023.

On January 18, 2023, Boygenius announced the album, along with the release of three lead singles, “$20”, “Emily I’m Sorry”, and “True Blue”. On March 1, 2023, Boygenius released the album’s fourth single “Not Strong Enough”, along with an accompanying music video edited by Bridgers’ brother Jackson Bridgers. The song was sent to adult album alternative and alternative radio in the United States on March 13 and March 28, 2023, respectively. The B-side of the vinyl version of the record ends with a locked groove at the end of “Letter to an Old Poet,” resulting in the group repeating the phrase “waiting” until the listener lifts the needle.

The group will embark on two tours to support the album, the Re:SET Concert Series and The Tour. The band also performed “Not Strong Enough” on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and during Bridgers’ opening set for Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour.
