Factory Reset is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter and musician Tilian Pearson, released on April 23, 2021, through Future Friends and Rise Records.[4][5] The album serves as a follow-up to his third studio album, The Skeptic (2018). Similar to The Skeptic, the album was produced by Kris Crummett, who also performed drums, while Tilian performed guitar, bass, keyboards, synthesizers, and handled additional production. It was writhen and recorded at the musician's home recording studio in Los Angeles during the COVID-19 pandemic, while engineering was handled at Crummett's Interlace Audio Studio in Portland, Oregon. The album shares the same pop rock and electro-pop musical styles from its predecessor while including elements of progressive rock, electronic rock, trap, and dancehall.

The album's lead single "Dose" was released on December 11, 2020. "Anthem" was released as the second single on February 26, 2021. The third and fourth singles, "Is Anarchy A Good Hobby?" and "Caught In the Carousel", were each released in March and April, respectively. A remix of "Breathe" by Australian producer and DJ Mars Monero was released on February 11, 2022. A headlining US tour was scheduled to take place in February and March 2022, but was postponed to November 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
