New Mother is the debut studio album by American folk music act Angels of Light. It was released on April 5, 1999 via frontman Michael Gira's own record label Young God Records, immediately after Michael Gira disbanded his previous band, Swans. The album features contributions from various musicians, including violinist Hahn Rowe, Rasputina band cellist Julia Kent, drummer Thor Harris, composer Joe McGinty and ex-Swans members Bill Rieflin, Phil Puleo and Bill Bronson. The album contains versions of two songs that were performed live during Swans' final tour - "The Man With the Silver Tongue" and "Not Alone". The Michael Gira solo album Solo Recordings at Home contains an outtake from the recording session for this album, on the song "God's Servant", which was also released as a B-side to the accompanying single "Praise Your Name".
