Off with Her Head is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Banks. It was released via ADA Worldwide on February 28, 2025. Blending alternative pop and R&B, the album explores themes of identity, self-liberation, and emotional transformation, which Banks has described as her most joyful work to date despite its dark title. Lyrically, it centers on letting go of past versions of oneself and silencing inner negativity. The project was preceded by three singles: "I Hate Your Ex-Girlfriend" featuring Doechii, "Best Friends", and "Love Is Unkind".
The album received generally favorable reviews from critics. On Metacritic, it holds a score of 71 based on six reviews. Critics praised Banks's songwriting, vocal performance, and return to alt-pop and R&B roots, with The Line of Best Fit calling it "focused and commanding." Other reviewers noted the album's vulnerability, humor, and experimental elements, though some pointed to inconsistent songwriting and production.
