Asylum on the Hill is a studio album by the American band The Felice Brothers. It was released on Dec. 15, 2023, as a "surprise" Bandcamp-only release. The album was recorded in a small church in Harlemville, New York that the band converted to a recording studio. The band has called the album "a collection of songs about magical automobiles, various deformities of the heart and mind, red geraniums that have grown monstrously large and powerful, and other such themes."[1]

The album was engineered, mixed, mastered, and co-produced by drummer Nate Wood, who is a duo partner with Felice Brothers' bassist Jesske Hume. Ian and James Felice wrote all the songs with the exception of "Spring Gazing," which was written by Ian Felice and Hume and features a poem by eighth-century Chinese poet Xue Tao. Ian Felice painted the album's cover art.[2]
