First post on Lemmy…

What albums are you looking forward to this year/in the near future?

I’m excited for the new Queens of the Stone Age and KGATLW, and the 20th anniversary release of Deftones self titled

    The new King Gizz album might be shaping up to be one of their best, based on the singles released. (If you like their heavier side, at least)

    It’s out now but I haven’t heard it yet, the new Jason Isbell album.

    Based on the singles I heard I’m hyped for the King Gizz album. It sounds like it’s going to be a more mature rats nest.

    New Queens of the Stone Age out soon. I haven’t loved the singles but I will absolutely check it out.

    I’ve recently become obsessed with the Italian power metal band Ancient Bards. They have four albums out and a new one in the works. There hasn’t been any real updates in awhile, but hopefully it’s still planned to release this year.

      Need to check this out. “Ancient Bards” sounds like a Blind Guardian tribute band based on the name 🙂

    The new CMAT album, first couple singles off it are great, seeming like a slightly different sound for this one so interested to see how the rest are!

    It’s probably a bad sign for me that I can’t really think of any albums that I’m looking forward to. Most of the ones I was hyped for have already dropped. Aside from the new KGATLW, the only thing I’m hyped for is the Stop Making Sense 4k remaster.

    Then again, I’m pretty slow on the uptake when it comes to following music news. I very frequently only just learn an album is coming out only days out from release, if not on or after release

    I’m very excited for Dead Club City by Nothing But Thieves - I’m a sucker for a concept album and I’ve really enjoyed their backlist.

    “1972” by Green Day (or whatever they’re going to call it); set to come out in 2024.

    There’s a really underrated band I love called Savatage who are apparently releasing their first album since 2001

    “6661” by Kuollut & SIVERNOT out June 23. It’s promoted as Futuristic Witch House with Folk vocals. Kuollut is one of my favourite producers.

    We have a new Pearl Jam album coming up at some point.

    If it were a week ago, I would have said the new Extreme album. Now that it’s out, all I can say is if you like real guitar rock, give it a listen. It is SO. GOOD.

    Definitely looking forward to KGATLW. There’s also The Beggar by Swans coming out on soon on June 23, and I’m looking forward to The Harmony Codex by Steven Wilson on September 29. I do go in fairly blind to these albums though, so I’m hyped purely by these artists’ previous works.
