The Romance of Affliction. It was elected by
Loudwire as the 36th best rock/metal album of 2021. On July 19, 2022, the band released a music video for their cover of the
Saosin song "Seven Years". The song is featured on the Pure Noise compilation

Nothing,Nowhere, on September 5. On March 5, 2024, SeeYouSpaceCowboy announced its third studio album,
Coup de Grâce, set for an April 19 release. The band toured in support of the album with openers
The Callous Daoboys and Omerta; Roman Candle was also set to appear on the tour but was dropped following fan backlash due to domestic abuse allegations against former bassist Nico Borgia and the victim claiming Roman Candle knew of the abuse before the allegations became public. On January 14, 2025, SeeYouSpaceCowboy was announced as a supporting act for
Dance Gavin Dance's "Return of the Robot" tour. The tour announcement was met with controversy and backlash from fans of SeeYouSpaceCowboy due to Dance Gavin Dance's handling of former vocalist
Tilian Pearson, who was accused of sexual misconduct. Following the tour announcement and subsequent backlash, vocalist Connie Sgarbossa released a series of vague and cryptic posts on social media hinting at her dissatisfaction with the tour and her place in SeeYouSpaceCowboy, and that she may be exiting the band. This was later confirmed three days later as Sgarbossa shared a series of Instagram stories with the first story reading: "I appreciate everyone reaching out. SYSC meant the world to me too. I haven't fully processed what's going on but I am alive as of now." On January 24, 2025, it was announced that the band would not be touring with Dance Gavin Dance, with no further announcement of the status of the band. ==Politics==
