We may be almost half way through the year (how, please?), but 2023 still has a lot in store on the new music front.
Over the coming months we're set to see some huge new album releases: from the latest in Taylor Swift's series of re-recordings (Speak Now: Taylor's Version) to big musical comebacks from Kylie Minogue (Tension), Blur (The Ballad of Darren), Arlo Parks (My Soft Machine) and Niall Horan (The Show).
Oh, and who could forget the small matter of Noel Gallagher going head-to-head with Foo Fighters in what's sure to be one of the tensest chart battles of the year?
Let's take a look what we've got to look forward to, shall we?
