So that nobody loses track: Here you will find a list (which does not claim to be complete) of the music albums released in May 2023.
Music is our job and your hobby – otherwise you wouldn’t be interested in the following list, we would say. The content is self-explanatory: Because new good, bad or irrelevant albums are released every month, we’re trying to give an overview. Of course, it does not claim to be complete, but hopefully it will at least include what we consider interesting/relevant enough for ME readers. And with that, the curtain rises for the new albums in May 2023 – the new releases in a chronological overview of their release dates.
