In this segment, we showcase the most notable albums out each week. Here are the albums out on November 28, 2025:
Pink Siifu, BLACK’!ANTIQUE; ONYX’!
BLACK’!ANTIQUE; ONYX’! is technically the deluxe edition of Pink Siifu’s fourth album BLACK’!ANTIQUE, which came out earlier this year, but it qualifies as a whole new album, like FKA twigs’ recent EUSEXUA Afterglow or SZA’s Lana. It features guest spots from Armand Hammer, Valee, and more. “This deluxe is an extension of all the things which represented BLACK’!ANTIQUE,” the eclectic rapper said in a statement. “If the original was chaotic this is more of the fun based in that chaos, the energy of the first half dialed in more, with a melancholy and dark atmosphere. EYE HATE to leave anything in the dust so this is also a polish of some of the music that first started the idea of Black’!Antique. It was made with the intent to sharpen and truly show that an artist should be one of one.”
Sega Bodega, I Created the Universe so That Life Could Create a Language So Complex, Just to Say How Much I Love You
Why say “I made an ambient album” when you can say I Created the Universe so That Life Could Create a Language So Complex, Just to Say How Much I Love You? That’s the title of Sega Bodega’s new album, and the eponymous track, slotted right in the middle, is appropriately spacious and moving. The features are intriguing, too: there’s a notable appearance from legendary folk singer-songwriter Vashti Bunyan on the opening track ‘Pipe’, plus two tracks each with Lucinda Chua and Maya Alkhateri.
PLOSIVS, Yell at Cloud
PLOSIVS – the underground rock supergroup composed of Rob Crow (Pinback), John Reis (Rocket From The Crypt/Drive Like Jehu/Hot Snakes), Atom Willard (RFTC, Against Me!, The Offspring, etc), and Jordan Clark (Mrs. Magician) – have a new album out. Yell at Cloud is the follow-up to the band’s 2022 self-titled debut, and it’s got a darker, claustrophic edge. After relocating to Winnipeg, the band wrote and “recorded at the No Fun compound while the the famous blizzard of ‘20 descended upon the city,” according to Swami, which led to power outages. “Most of what you hear on Yell at Cloud was recorded in the dark or by candlelight.”
These New South Whales, GODSPEED
These New South Wales have dropped their fourth studio album, GODSPEED. The follow-up to TNSW was produced by Ben Greenberg (Depeche Mode, Drab Majesty, Show Me The Body), whose work with bands like Ceremony, Institute, The Chisel, and Chat Pile helped push the album in different, often more punishing directions. “The album would sound completely different if he hadn’t happened to be in Melbourne at the exact same time that we wanted to record,” singer Jamie Timony commented, adding that the lyrics have “switched into a more empowered state. In some ways, it feels like the final chapter of a particular story. Now’s the time to step into your power.”
Other albums out today:
Equipment Pointed Ankh, Eggs a Little Late; Josh Freese, Just a Minute Vol. 2; Ikonika, SAD; Tulpa, Monster of the Week; The Saints, Long March Through the Jazz Age; Excide, Bastard Hymns; Felix Raphael, Do You; Shoko Igarashi, Kokoro no Kibi; Raica, If Not Now, When.
