Solace is the third album by the New Zealand post-rock band Jakob. It was released in New Zealand on September 11, 2006.
In comparison to the band's earlier albums, which focused more on melody and eeriness, Solace showcases a significant evolution towards a darker, heavier, moodier Post-Metal sound that is reminiscent of the work of such band as ISIS, Pelican and Cult Of Luna.
