The first chills of fall have officially crept in, and with it comes a wave of new album releases. The biggest and most elusive record comes from Taylor Swift, who’s kept nearly every detail about the forthcoming Midnights under wraps. Swift’s quickly become a fall mainstay, with the cozy Evermore and Folklore, so get those cardigans ready.
For folks seeking out a big pop sound to carry them through the cooler days, we’ve got new works from Canada’s pop princess Carly Rae Jepsen, as well as alt-pop artists Tove Lo and Betty Who. Finally, those who were teenagers during the peak Tumblr era of 2013-2014 are truly in for a treat this month, with new records from tastemakers Arctic Monkeys, The 1975, Tegan and Sara, and Alvvays.

You put a gun to my head and told me to name a Taylor Swift song that would be very rude.
I think maybe there’s one called Red, is that true? Honestly I can’t imagine paying attention to her.
I’m sure you’ll be able to shake it off.
I thought I knew that one but it turned I’d got the title slightly wrong and it was a Florence and the Machine song.
And I can’t name a single song from dozens of popular artists. Your point is?
Being a big fan of the relatively unpopular “Another Day on Earth,” I am cautiously optimistic about the new Eno effort.
Other October releases I’m looking forward to:Fucked Up – Oberon (October 7)
Will Sheff (of Okkervil River) – Nothing Special (October 7)
The Black Lips – Apocalypse Love (October 14)
Dry Cleaning – Stumpwork (October 21)
Dead Cross – II (October 28)
Marlowe – Marlowe 3 (October 28)
A French radio station just leaked the unreleased Queen song a day early. You can hear it here.
