It’s Friday, and that means we’ve reached our final 2025 episode of New Music Friday. While most of the music internet is looking backward (including the latest episode of All Songs Considered<\/i>), we here at New Music Friday didn’t want to ignore the musicians who still had something new to say. After all, a critic favorite this list season is Cameron Winter’s Heavy Metal<\/i>, which came out … the first week of December last year.<\/p>\n

Each week, we welcome a member of the NPR Music Network of public-radio stations to the show. and this week’s guest is Erin Wolf of Radio Milwaukee. She joined NPR Music’s Stephen Thompson to discuss their five favorite albums out today, plus a lightning round of other worthy music.<\/p>\n
