It's time for September's top 10 albums. Staying abreast of the month's highlights may help casual readers catch up on what they missed and explore these artists. I am not writing brief summaries of them; I am simply linking to the reviews. Inclusion here does not mean that these albums have been released this month, but it is a list of new or upcoming albums I have enjoyed the most. I have albums in my inbox that are not coming out til 2026, so I am normally way ahead of the curve in this regard. They are ranked in order of what I have listened to the most. This month, there is only a marginal variety for some reason. I was just listening to heavy shit, with a little industrial, death rock, and noise rock wedged in with death metal albums, which seemed the dominant force this month. So if you are feeling pissed or anxious, maybe you will find your new favorite among them. Here are the Top 10 albums of September.
