The World Is to Dig is the 24th studio album by American alternative rock band They Might Be Giants, released on April 14, 2026. Prior to the album's release, the band released the singles "Wu-Tang", "Sleep's Older Sister", "Outside Brain", and "Overnight Sensation". Songs on the album explore multiple genres and musical styles. Many of the songs on The World Is to Dig were written and recorded in advance of the release of Book, the band's preceding album. As The World Is to Dig was recorded, They Might Be Giants changed earlier versions of the tracks to more up tempo versions. The World Is to Dig was completed in late 2025. The name of the album was inspired by the title of A Hole Is to Dig, a 1952 children's book by author Ruth Krauss. The album's cover is mainly a painting of Yosemite Valley, credited to after Thomas Hill.
