One might be able to tell we are getting a bit closer to the holidays with all the September album releases. The summer gets heavy with them, but nothing like the early fall. Record companies know when people are ready to buy.
At least, there is a lot for every kind of music lover. Maybe too much. You might have to thin your Christmas list down in what to ask for. (Or, you know, stream less at work.)
There are some big hitters in September, too. Ed Sheeran has a new release. So does David Byrne. Plus, if you love britpop, the latest Suede will be released. You will want to grab that one. Everything set to be released is below (and the artist is listed first, followed by the album name).
Full album releases for September 2025 has a lot for everyone
September 5

Sheeran's most recent work will probably be the global hit, but Twenty One Pilots, an overrated alt-rock band that somehow has a huge following, might follow close behind.
