Harry Styles scores biggest global debut of his career with Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.

Harry Styles has stormed the charts worldwide with his new album Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally., delivering the strongest global debut of his career.

The record has already surpassed one million units globally, dominating charts across multiple continents and setting new milestones for the British star.

In the US, the album opened at number one on the Billboard 200 with more than 430,000 units, marking the biggest first week of the year and giving Harry his fourth consecutive solo chart‑topping debut. He extends his record as the first UK male artist — and only the second male artist overall — to debut at number one with his first four albums since Nielsen Music began electronically tracking sales in 1991. The release also delivers the biggest first‑week vinyl sales for a male artist in the US, surpassing the benchmark he set with Harry’s House.

Internationally, Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. has debuted at number one in 19 additional countries and is already the biggest‑selling album of the year in the UK, Australia, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, New Zealand, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Norway, Portugal, Canada and Spain. It also tops the charts in Denmark, Finland, France, Germany and Italy, and leads the Spotify Album Chart in the Czech Republic.

In the UK, the album becomes Harry’s third number one, shifting 183,000 copies in its first week — a huge leap from the 113,000‑unit debut of Harry’s House. It also claims the highest first‑week vinyl sales for a British artist this century. The record achieves a rare chart double in both the UK and Canada, with the album and the single American Girls simultaneously topping the charts. It marks the biggest opening week for a male solo artist in the UK and Australia since Ed Sheeran’s ÷ in 2017.

Across Europe, the album continues to break records. In Germany, it became the best‑selling album by a male solo artist in nearly six years and the top‑selling album by an international male solo act in nine years. Sales have doubled those of Harry’s House in Germany, Sweden, Austria and Switzerland, and tripled in the Netherlands.
