Trilogy: Dawn
Trilogy: Dawn is the sixth studio album from British alternative rock band InMe. The album was released in the UK on 4 May 2015 and was the first instalment of three albums in a trilogy. However, the second instalment, Trilogy: Sentience, as well as the third and final instalment, Trilogy: Quietus were never released. On 2 November 2018, InMe announced they would rather focus on their new album Jumpstart Hope and not on the second and third trilogy albums. This would also be the final album to feature Simon Taylor, before his departure from the band in October 2017.

The videos appeared on the band's YouTube page on 29 July 2015 and 1 October 2015 respectively.
The Trilogy
Frontman Dave McPherson states that the original idea to release three thematically linked albums struck him during the recording of the band's 5th album, The Pride, in 2011. Each album will have a different sound and theme. Trilogy: Dawn deals with the concept of birth, youth and childhood and is an alternative rock album.
