Plum is the fifth studio album by American band Widowspeak. It was released on 28 August 2020 on record label Captured Tracks. Plum was recorded in the Catskill Mountains in the winter of 2019, and was preceded by four singles: "Breadwinner" in May 2020, "Money" in June, "Plum" in July, and "Even True Love" in August.
Metacritic summarised the critical response to Plum as "generally favorable."
Todd Dedman of Beats Per Minute wrote that Widowspeak's "sound remains a woozy delight, but with a more direct and purposeful feel to it," but felt that the title track is one of the weakest on the album.
Loud and Quiet wrote: "there's a rumbling, phantom thread in the strata of Plum that elevates their fifth effort to a vantage point above their previous releases," and compared Hamilton's vocals to Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star.
In a review for Pitchfork, Julia Gray wrote that Plum "doesn’t take enough risks to really widen Widowspeak's scope."
