The albums discography of Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue, consists of eleven studio albums, nine compilation albums, four live albums and eleven remix albums. Minogue's music career began as a result of her popularity in Neighbours, an Australian soap opera. Minogue based herself in the United Kingdom after signing with PWL, and recorded her debut album Kylie with Stock, Aitken & Waterman. The album sold over 5 million copies. Her 1989 album Enjoy Yourself produced two number one singles in the UK with "Hand on Your Heart" and "Tears On My Pillow", the theme from her film debut The Delinquents. Minogue's third album Rhythm of Love, released in 1990, marked a defining turning point in her career. The album showcased a more club-orientated sound, a highly sexual look and provocative music videos. Her fourth album Let's Get to It was released in 1991, followed by the compilation Greatest Hits. Having completed her contract with PWL, she signed to Deconstruction in 1993. Her 1994 album Kylie Minogue aimed to reinvent Minogue as a credible performer, distancing herself from her earlier work. Minogue's most personal and experimental album to date Impossible Princess was released in 1997. It is noted for its collaborations with Manic Street Preachers, and for all lyrics being written by Minogue.

After disappointing sales, Minogue moved to Parlophone and in 2000 released Light Years, it marked a return to her dance-pop roots, and revitalised Minogue's career. However, it was the 2001 album Fever, a number one in over forty countries, that gave her widespread international recognition. The album became the highest seller of her career. Body Language followed in 2003, and her second official greatest hits package Ultimate Kylie was released in 2004. In March 2005, Minogue was diagnosed with breast cancer, forcing her to postpone all recording commitments. In 2007, she resumed her career with the release of her tenth album X. Minogue's eleventh studio album, Aphrodite, was released on 5 July 2010.
