As of August 2024, Faithless have released seven studio albums: Reverence (1996), Sunday 8PM (1998), Outrospective (2001), No Roots (2004), To All New Arrivals (2006), The Dance (2010), and All Blessed , which was released in 2020. An eighth Faithless studio album, titled Champion Sound , is due for release in autumn 2024; it was preceded by two singles: "Find A Way" and "I'm Not Alone (Rest Well Maxwell)".

Faithless have sold over 15 million records worldwide. [2] They have scored three UK number one's: studio album No Roots, 2010 remix album Faithless 2.0 , and compilation album Forever Faithless – The Greatest Hits (2005).

In 2019, Faithless member Rollo Armstrong started a separate project under the alias R Plus, with some online streaming services erroneously listing Faithless as a collaborative artist on R Plus' releases. Rollo's sister, Dido has collaborated frequently with the band, including 2002 hit "One Step Too Far", which charted in thirteen countries.
