Newly Sentient Being is the eleventh live album by American experimental rock band Swans, released on October 2, 2026, via Young God Records. Young God's press release for the album described it as the final record in the "big sound" era of the band which began with their 2010s reformation. It is a recording of a November 28, 2025 show in Berlin, during the Birthing tour. The album contains three entirely new tracks, one from Birthing with compositional revisions, and one from The Beggar. Physical releases of the record contain a DVD of the performance directed by Marco Porsia and Peter Harton. At 160 minutes in length, it is the band's second longest official release, coming in behind Live Rope, which runs for over three hours.
