Ah, May 12, 2017 – another Friday – and another new music release date! The second music release date in May is top-heavy, featuring new albums courtesy of Harry Styles, Paramore, Zac Brown Band, and Machine Gun Kelly. Who’s got the most buzz?

After One Direction went on an indefinite hiatus, the four remaining members of the collective went in their own separate directions…no pun intended. Anyways, Harry Styles becomes the second member of the band to release a solo debut following former member Zayn. Fittingly self-titled, Harry Styles got a massive lift from promo single “Sign of the Times.” Styles followed up with a second single, “Sweet Creature,” quite the contrast to the promo single. Harry Styles is comprised of just 10 songs with no guest features.
