Last Thursday, the Pentagon confirmed that US Army chief of staff Randy George would be suddenly leaving his role after two and a half years. It’s believed that he was fired by Fox News contributor-turned Trump advisor-turned secretary of defense Pete Hegseth, whose reason for ousting George remains unclear, especially as US forces continue waging war with Iran. Since news broke of his forced retirement, George has received praise and sympathy across party lines from veterans, political leaders, and friends. One of those friends just so happens to be Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan.

In 2026, a stunning new chapter for Plini will arrive, with the prolific Australian guitarist, composer, and producer today announcing the release of a brand new album, An Unnameable Desire, set for release on Friday, 24th April.

Across the space of 10 tracks, An Unnameable Desire blends staggering intricacy with moments of surging heaviness and billowing bliss, catapulting Plini‘s expansive dexterity and sonic diversity into even greater new heights.

Accompanying the announcement of his new album, Plini has also unveiled the album’s title track along with a charismatic music video. But, as Plini reveals, all may not be as it seems as we venture further down the rabbit hole for album #3.

“I picked this as the first single because it sets the tone/sound of the album without really giving anything away,” shares Plini. “I’m known as a guitarist, but this song doesn’t even really contain a guitar “solo”. Much like the video, it’s the whimsical first chapter of an adventure, and hopefully gives a false sense of security for what’s to come.”

Pre-order the album here.

Mixed by Simon Grove and mastered by Adam “Nolly” Getgood, An Unnameable Desire finds Plini joining forces with a horde of creative talent, with magic woven alongside Simon Grove (bass, auxiliary guitar, mixing, engineering and co-production), Chris Allison (drums percussion, additional drum engineering and co-production), Dave Mckay (piano, keyboards and synthesizers), A.J. Minette (string arrangement and production), Misha Vayman (violin) and Yoshi Masuda (cello), with additional production on ‘Ciel’ courtesy of Devesh Dayal, a guitar solo on ‘Ciel’ by Jakub Zytecki and harp on ‘After Everything’ by Emily Hopkins. Album artwork is designed by Patti Bai.

“Something I’m very happy about, after many years of making music and the “career” aspect of it becoming a whole lot more serious, is that the process hasn’t changed – still just me sitting in a room, tinkering on a guitar until I come across an interesting idea, and then following it down various rabbit holes until it starts feeling like a song,” shares Plini of his upcoming new album.

“The intention with this album,” adds Plini, “was to let that side of the process be as playful as possible, and then when it came to executing these ideas as finished songs, trying to expand the music in every direction possible: the heavier parts should be heavier, the pretty parts should be prettier, the hard-to-play stuff should be harder to play… and also in being as thoughtful and intricate as possible in relating the songs to each other through various themes and references. I hope it’s as enjoyable to listen to as it was to make!”

Renowned for delivering mind-bending musicality from all angles, Plini has previously released two full-length albums, 2016’s Handmade Cities and 2020’s Impulse Voices, alongside several EPs, singles, and contributing credits along the way. 

Nominated for Live Guitarist of the Year in 2018 at the National Live Music Awards, Plini has also previously toured alongside Sleep Token, Periphery, and Tesseract, and will embark on a huge world tour in 2026, commencing in Europe in late April.

Lilla Evening (Helfer Remake) by Sainkho Namtchylak feels like a collision between ancient expression and modern pulse. Her voice moves freely, raw and untamed, shifting between delicate phrasing and visceral outbursts that feel almost instinctive. The electronic production adds a steady, driving undercurrent, grounding the track without ever containing it. There is something ritualistic in the way it unfolds, as if tradition is being reshaped in real time.

It is intense, unpredictable, and deeply immersive, a piece that pulls you into its world and refuses to let go.
