Love in the 4th Dimension is the debut studio album by British indie rock band The Big Moon, released on 7 April 2017 by Fiction Records. The album was recorded at Eastcote Studios in London with producer Catherine Marks. The album was recorded across 12 days so the band could go with their first instincts musically. Prior to the album's release the tracks "Cupid", "Silent Movie Susie", "Formidable" and "Sucker" were released as singles, the latter of which being a re-recording of the band's debut single. The band is set to start a European tour to celebrate the album's release starting on 20 April 2017.

Love in the 4th Dimension was officially announced on 16 November 2016, when the single "Formidable" premiered on Annie Mac's Hottest Record. Despite this the track was actually the third single released from the album. The first single was the song "Cupid" released on 29 March 2016. "Cupid"'s accompanying music video was released a month later released on 24 April. It was the first song the band released after signing to Fiction Records. The track was described by front woman Jules Jackson as being about "when you really really want something or someone and you launch yourself into getting it - preening yourself, preparing, fantasising the blissful future, convincing yourself that you’re ready for it and you bravely throw yourself into a new situation - only to find that despite all that careful planning your nerves can still get the better of you." The second single released was the track "Silent Movie Susie" released on 26 July 2016. The track was premiered on BBC Radio 1 by Huw Stephens. It was described by Robin Murray from Clash Magazine as being "reminiscent of Elastica, or even elements of The Libertines". The third single released was the track "Formidable" which was premiered by Radio 1 on Annie Mac's Hottest Record. It was also released on a 7" vinyl on 13 January 2017 with the track "Hold This" being the B-side. Jules described the song as being about "being strong for someone who’s going through a hard time, and it's saying 'I'm here, you can talk to me, I'll be strong for you, you don’t have to hold it inside'. The fourth single released was the track "Sucker", a re-recording of the band's debut single originally released on 29 April 2015.
