Latest Western Music Releases [November 2025]

MercurySub Urban

Sub Urban – Mercury (Official Music Video)

Sub Urban, whose 2019 signature track went viral and made him a leading figure in dark pop, has released a new single in October 2025 that portrays the distortions in human relationships eroded by technology.

The track ambitiously uses mercury as a metaphor to express the lingering sense of surveillance that clings to the body like spyware and the fear of having one’s identity stripped away by AI.

Its meticulous sound design—four-on-the-floor kicks, shoegaze-style synth processing, and chamber-pop-inspired strings—is another highlight, further distilling the artistic vision he deepened on the June 2025 album “If Nevermore.” It’s a must-listen for anyone who resonates with the suffocating mood of the digital age.

PrivateThe Neighbourhood

The Neighbourhood – Private (Official Music Video)

The Neighbourhood have made a full-fledged comeback for the first time in about five years, stirring up major buzz across the music scene.

Known for coloring the 2010s with their dark-toned sound that weaves together monochrome aesthetics and R&B-infused emotion, they dropped three advance tracks all at once in October 2025.

The standout among them is this piece, reportedly born from an iPhone Voice Memo.

Whisper-close vocals and a minimal track dominated by sub-bass brilliantly capture the conflicting emotions of wanting to keep a secret relationship while feeling guilty about it.

Their skill in using sonic negative space to portray the delicate shifts of a heart wavering on the boundary between public and private is truly impressive.

Their comeback album, (((((ultraSOUND))))), is slated for release in November 2025.

This is a track we especially recommend to anyone struggling with the distance in their relationships.

Released in October 2025, this track is a powerful piece themed as a response to his critics.
