"The Cost" is the sixth studio album by The Frames, released in Ireland on Plateau Records on September 22, 2006. The album was released worldwide on ANTI- on February 20, 2007. The album exhibits a sound more like that of "For the Birds" than their more recent album "Burn the Maps". The Frames' line-up for The Cost features Glen Hansard on guitar and vocals, Colm Mac Con Iomaire on violin and keyboards, Joseph Doyle on bass guitar and backing vocals, Rob Bochnik on lead guitar and Graham Hopkins who played drums in place of the Frames' regular drummer Johnny Boyle. It was recorded in Black Box, France by Stephen Fitzmaurice and David Odlum with assistance from Fabian Lesure. The front and back covers feature photography by frontman Hansard of oak leaves, accompanied by a handwritten inscription reading: "Ni identitat permanent, ni idea de persona, ni d'ésser vivant, ni d'un temps d'existencia" (which is Catalan for "Nor permanent identity, nor idea of a person, nor of being alive, nor of a time of existence"). The album is enigmatically dedicated to "Multi (the ghost)".

Three songs on the album have been released before on separate productions. "Rise" featured on the B-Side of the 2001 Single "Lay Me Down". Both "Falling Slowly" and "When Your Mind's Made Up" appeared on the 2006 album "The Swell Season" released by Glen Hansard and the Czech pianist Marketa Irglova. All three of these songs have been reworked for the album.

A deluxe edition of the album was released on the US iTunes Store on May 13, 2008. It included three extra tracks - "The Blood," "No More I Love Yous," and "This Low," as well as the music videos for "Falling Slowly," "Sad Songs," and "The Side You Never Get To See."
