....given how many labels there are, and how many countries there are, it must be a huge number. I imagine a lot of good albums will be overlooked.

Exactly, OP.
For example, the new album Triboluminescence by Andy Summers, coming out later this month.

The numbers now must be tremendous! I know that back when I was a touring musician (many years ago, kids!), the majors each released about 15-20 new releases each and every week of the year, and on average, only one of those releases would spawn a hit single each week....sometimes more, sometimes less. The biz has always been a matter of "throw as much shit at the wall as you can, because we only need ONE HUGE HIT LP to pay for it all." That, my fellow players, is also exactly why musicians have been getting a contractual stroking since music has been being packaged and sold. The labels want to produce the most product they can for the least investment.
