New Album Releases & Arrivals June 26, 2026

June 26 is the kind of Friday that reminds you why you check the rack every week. There are new albums from artists you've been waiting on for years, anniversary pressings of certified classics, a stack of Japanese imports that have been circling the collector conversation for months, and more Olivia Rodrigo and Kehlani variants than you can shake a stylus at. This one rewards patience.

The headline is Boards of Canada's Inferno — the Scottish duo's first proper album in over a decade — but the drop runs deep in every direction: 21 Savage, Roy Ayers, Jalen Ngonda on Daptone, Kehlani's self-titled, Alicia Keys at 25 years, and an absolutely unhinged haul of jazz, soul, and electronic material.

Here's every title from the first wave of the drop — shop the full June 26, 2026 collection here.

See You Friday

June 26 has one of the most genuinely diverse top sections we've had in months — a new Boards of Canada record, two Olivia Rodrigo formats, Kehlani's self-titled in two variants, three Roy Ayers albums at once, a Japanese city pop haul, and some of the week's quieter finds in Jalen Ngonda on Daptone and Charles Wright pressing that's been a long time coming. If there are records to prioritize before the week is out, keep an eye on:

  • Boards of Canada - Inferno (new album, first in over a decade)
  • Olivia Rodrigo - You Seem Pretty Sad For a Girl So In Love (Spark in the Dark Color)
  • Kehlani - Kehlani (Indie Exclusive Violet Marble)
  • Alicia Keys - Songs in A Minor (Indie Exclusive Crystal Rose)
  • Jalen Ngonda - Doctrine of Love (Indie Exclusive Clear)
  • Hiroshi Sato - Orient (Clear Green)
  • Charanjit Singh - Synthesizing (Pearlescent Color)
  • Anri - Heaven Beach (Clear Yellow) and Timely!! (Blue)

Whether you're after the headline electronic drop, a deep soul or jazz dig, or a collector piece from the city pop shelf, this Friday has the range. Browse the full June 26, 2026 collection and lock in your picks.

It's all in GOOD TASTE.
