Once the chillier seasons of the year have given way, May 2025 promises a plethora of fresh album launches. There’s something to delight everyone. Are you a fan of pop music? Your wish is granted. Prefer metal? You’ll find that as well!
Indeed, there are some significant new releases coming up as well. Sleep Token is set to unveil their newest album, and from what I gather, it appears to veer away slightly from the heavier metal genre. Perhaps the bonus tracks will make up for it.
Surprisingly, even the country singer Eric Church has a captivatingly titled album. The music on this record seems to have a vibe reminiscent of alternative rock, which might seem unusual for a country artist. But then again, Church is known for keeping us guessing.
