Blackbriar is an alternative metal band from Assen, the Netherlands. They have released two albums, four EPs, six singles, ten official music videos, one official lyric video and four acoustic live videos. In October 2019, Blackbriar joined Epica as official support during their Design Your Universe 10th Anniversary Tour.

In November 2019, Blackbriar was invited to play the aftershow for Halestorm and In This Moment at the AFAS Live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The band signed a contract with Nuclear Blast in November 2022.

The band shot the music video for Dianne van Giersbergen's first solo single "After the Storm", which was released on 14 February 2023.

The band's debut album The Cause of Shipwreck was released in April 2021 and received positive reviews. Metal Hammer Germany compared singer Zora Cock's style to Kate Bush in "Wuthering Heights" and Amy Lee in "My Immortal". The Finnish Tuonela Magazine wrote that the band distinguished itself by mixing "a healthy dose of Gothic imagery into their brand of symphonic metal" and called The Cause of Shipwreck "an album that not only significantly expands their sound but also solidifies it". Fellow rock musician Liselotte Hegt wrote that "Zora is almost like a siren, luring you into dark romantic scenarios, twisted fairy tales and ghostlike sceneries", and found that the orchestral elements on the album were present but not overpowering.
