The album Spendor and Misery by Clipping is awesome, it's an industrial hip-hop sci-fi concept album about a colony ship (I think?). The Breach and Wake Up are my favorites from it. Their EP The Deep is also pretty good, it's about an underwater society made up of the descendants of people who were pushed off of slave ships rising up to take the surface world back.
On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, there's Janelle Monae's Dirty Computer (although the sci-fi themes are a bit less out in the open). Her other albums take some inspiration from sci-fi as well
Edit: Oh, and how could I forget Knights of Cydonia by Muse
Yeeesss I was going to link to The Deep!
Just listened to "The Deep". I love it, I love the interspersed robotic speech, I love the tempo switches. The tempo switches remind me of "Idol" by YOASOBI (completely different songs, but it has sudden tempo changes and key modulations).
