The Ride Majestic is the tenth studio album by Swedish heavy metal band, Soilwork. It was released on August 28, 2015. It is the last album to feature long time drummer Dirk Verbeuren, who left the band in July 2016 to join Megadeth.

On December 5, 2014, Soilwork frontman Strid confirmed that work had begun on a new album when he posted a picture on Facebook of him listening to new demos.
