New Releases

This week's big single, album and DVD releases all in one place, only on Official Charts

Welcome to your New Music Friday round-up, here to serve you the biggest music and home entertainment releases of the week.

On the singles front, Little Mix's Perrie finally delivers her debut solo single Forget About Us. Co-written with Ed Sheeran, who you could argue knows his way around a melody, Forget About Us sees Perrie bid farewell to a lost love with the breeziest of choruses, no bitterness. Wind those windows down and blast this from the front seat.

Training Season's over, don't you know? Friday night Glastonbury headliner Dua Lipa drops the latest taste of her upcoming third studio album Radical Optimism this week.

Ahead of her Coachella performances this month, Sabrina Carpenter follows up her first-ever UK Top 20 single Feather with a shot of Espresso. Meanwhile, Mimi Webb returns with brand-new track Mistake; the first lifted from her upcoming second studio LP. Can the song match the Top 10 success of Good Without and House On Fire?

Elsewhere, ZAYN releases second ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS album cut Alienated, as Tinashe unleashes new track Nasty.

Celebrating 30 years since the release of their iconic debut single, Oasis reissue 1994's Number 31-peaking Supersonic on brand-new physical formats; complete with a previously-unreleased early live recording. Meanwhile, Girls Aloud continue to retrospectively add their EPs to streaming; this time with Something Kinda Ooooh.

Following on from the excellent I Dated A Monster, CATTY proves revenge is a dish best served healed, on the shimmering electro-rock ballad Healing Out Of Spite, sounding like the best song MUNA or Carly Rae Jepsen haven’t put their names to.

Now, let's talk albums.

Leeds-formed four-piece English Teacher, comprising Lily Fontaine, Lewis Whiting, Douglas Frost and Nicholas Eden deliver their much-anticipated debut This Could Be Texas this week.

Whalley Range rock outfit James return with Yummy; their 18th studio album across a career spanning four decades. Could the record earn James a 12th Top 10 album next week?

Just a week after their first collaborative project WE DON'T TRUST YOU debuted at Number 2, Future and Metro Boomin are already back with follow-up WE STILL DON'T TRUST YOU. Yep, the trust issues are real. Meanwhile, LA rock legends Eagles release their career-spanning compilation To The Limit: The Essential Collection.

Manic Street Preachers reissue a 20th anniversary edition of their seventh studio album Lifeblood as Lifeblood 20; complete with previously-unreleased remixes across brand-new physical and digital formats. Lifeblood, described by the band as their 'most estranged album of all,' peaked at Number 13 on its original release in 2004.

And, finally, former Dire Straits guitarist Mark Knopfler releases his 10th studio record One Deep River on his own label, British Grove. To date, Mark's racked up 12 UK Top 40 albums, and a further four with 12 with Dire Straits.
