Latest Western Music Releases [November 2025]

Love Who You LoveRomy

Romy – Love Who You Love (Official Music Video)

A new song released in November 2025 by Romy, known as the guitarist and vocalist of The xx.

Positioned as a symbolic final chapter to her solo debut album Mid Air, it carries a powerful message as a queer love song that says you can love whoever you want.

Co-produced with BloodPop and bandmate Jamie xx, it features a sound influenced by ’90s Eurodance and UK house.

It’s a track Romy has been nurturing since 2020, expressing gratitude for the sense of belonging that club culture has given her and solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community.

With its translucent melodies and uplifting beats, it embraces both longing and joy at once.

It’s the perfect song for anyone wanting to reaffirm the importance of loving authentically or to feel a sense of liberation on the dance floor.

MercenarySOEN

SOEN – Mercenary (Official Lyric Video)

The progressive metal band Soen, based in Sweden, released a track in November 2025 that serves as the second single from their forthcoming album Reliance, due in January 2026.

Formed in 2010 around former Opeth drummer Martín López, the group has earned acclaim for its distinctive blend of technical odd meters and lyrical melodies.

The new song centers on the themes of “inherited violence” and “the cost of conviction.” It incisively portrays how violence passed down from the past seeps across generations and how betrayal corrodes power, using the metaphor of a mercenary to sharpen its critique.

The interplay of Joel Ekelöf’s clear, airy vocals and the band’s weighty riff work yields a sound where ferocity and beauty coexist in striking balance.

It’s a release I highly recommend to anyone who wants to reflect inwardly on society’s distortions.

Destiny Arrives (featuring Weyes Blood)SPELLLING

SPELLLING – Destiny Arrives featuring Weyes Blood (Official Audio)

SPELLLING is the solo project of Chrystia Cabral, an artist based in Oakland, California.

Beginning from the bedroom and expanding through a fable-like worldview with choral and orchestral elements, she has established a singular form of art pop.

Released in November 2025, this work is a reimagined version of a track from the album “Portrait of My Heart,” featuring Weyes Blood.

Strings and layered synthesizers fill the space, and the moment when their two voices intertwine at the end is breathtaking.

Cabral’s dramatic delivery and Mering’s crystalline tone resonate together, radiating a majestic brilliance.

Highly recommended for those seeking music that is mystical and timeless.

PumpsSnow Wife

Snow Wife – “Pumps” (Official Music Video)

Emily Lian Snow, a Houston, Texas native who transitioned from a dancer to a singer-songwriter, performs under the name Snow Wife.

She’s gaining attention for a provocative sound that fuses hyperpop, Y2K bubblegum vibes, and the directness of rap.

Released in October 2025, this track celebrates self-stylization and bodily liberation through the symbolic item of heels.

Producer Slash Papi’s hard-edged synth bass and tight kick intertwine seamlessly with low-register, rap-sung vocals and razor-sharp hooks, vividly capturing the energy of the club floor.

It’s a must-listen for dance music fans who love to enjoy tracks alongside choreography!

The Crying GameStill Corners

Still Corners – The Crying Game (Official Video)

From Still Corners, the London-based dream-pop duo, comes a cover of a standard first introduced to the world by Dave Berry in 1964.

The original also drew attention through Boy George’s interpretation in a 1992 film, but here Tessa Murray’s breathy vocals—capturing even the slightest intake of air—and Greg Hughes’s hazy layers of synths and guitar wrap the resignation of lost love in an ethereal atmosphere.

Released to coincide with Halloween in October 2025, the track was distributed via their independent label, Wrecking Light Records.

It’s a single in line with the run of releases following the album Dream Talk, and a piece you’ll want to play on a dusky drive or during a quiet night.

The Wound and the Weapon (Feat. Guy Kozowyk of The Red Chord)Still Remains

Still Remains – The Wound and the Weapon (Feat. Guy Kozowyk of The Red Chord)

Still Remains, hailing from Michigan, made their mark in the mid-2000s with melodic metalcore.

With emotive, keyboard-forward arrangements and twin guitars inspired by Scandinavian melodic death metal as their weapons of choice, they went on hiatus in 2008 but reunited in 2011.

In October 2025, they released their first new song in 12 years.

Featuring The Red Chord frontman Guy Kozowyk as a guest vocalist, the track strikingly weaves together the band’s signature emotive clean vocal melodies with Guy’s ferocious death growls.

Its lyrics, depicting people who keep fighting by turning their scars into weapons, resonate with the band’s name and its theme of “what remains.” The song is a lead single from the five-track EP Spirit Breaker, and it’s one that every fan hoping for a resurgence of 2000s metalcore will want to hear!

Entwined (ft. Grimes)Sub Focus

Sub Focus – Entwined (ft. Grimes)

A producer who has led the UK drum and bass scene since the 2000s, Sub Focus released his new track on Halloween day, October 2025.

Featuring Canadian experimental artist Grimes, the song is a lead single from the November album “Contact.” Its lyrics, which explore human connection through the grand motif of outer space, leave a strong impression.

Starting with dreamy vocals and unfolding into shimmering synths and tight breakbeats, the dynamics showcase the latest form of the melodious drum and bass Sub Focus has refined over the years.

Balancing an epic worldview with floor-ready explosive power, this track is a must-listen for anyone who wants to experience the cutting edge of club music.
