V

V (Roman numeral for five) is the fifth studio album by English–American hard rock band Black Country Communion. Recorded in 2023 at Sunset Sound Recorders in Hollywood, California, it was produced by Kevin Shirley and released on June 14, 2024, by J&R Adventures. The album is the band's least commercially successful in both the UK and the US, peaking at number 58 on the UK Albums Chart and failing to register on the US Billboard 200 – the group's first album to do so.

Writing for V started shortly after the release of Black Country Communion's fourth album, BCCIV, in 2017. However, production was delayed several times due to the individual band members' busy schedules with other projects, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic starting in 2020. Recording eventually took place during the summer of 2023. Ahead of the album's release, the tracks "Stay Free", "Red Sun" and "Enlighten" were issued as singles between March and May 2024.

V received generally positive reviews from critics, many of whom praised the individual contributions of each band member, as well as the group's chemistry. Commercially, the album performed poorly in the US, failing to chart on the Billboard 200 or either of the main rock album charts. In the UK, V gave the band only its third top-five position on the UK Independent Albums Chart, as well as its first UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart number one since Black Country Communion 2.
