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.

I love Rats Nest so I'm pumped for PDA. Only listened to Gila Monster/Converge so far

[–] rancidity9480@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

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.

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

[–] loug@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Wow nice! Definitely a blast from the past, i was listening to them and helloween when I started listening to metal.

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!

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.

Dragon goes insanely hard I really can't wait. I also hope they do another KEXP session maybe.

[–] Slated@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

God I hope so. Live on KEXP is ALWAYS good

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'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.

[–] mmin@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] zwubb@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] maniajack@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same, hoping it turns out good.

personally, I'm looking forward to the new album from George Clanton, I only recently found out about him and I've definitely liked what I've heard so far of his new album; I'm also looking forward to Act 3 from The Protomen, whenever that ends up happening (it's been over a decade since Act 2 came out IIRC, which is significantly longer than I've known about them, but I've gotten to be quite the fan of them over the years).

Personally really looking forward to Nothing But Thieves new album that will be out July!

[–] oryx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Off the top of my head, just Shining.

[–] CaptManiac@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

John Mellencamp’s forthcoming new album Orpheus Descending.

[–] Thavron@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Well, the brothers Gallagher said that an Oasis reunion would be in the works so I don't know if that meant a new album but that'd be great.

[–] neko_chibi_chibi@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I'm looking forward to Blakbriar's A Dark Euphony album coming out this fall. I really love their sound and Zora's voice.

[–] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] man_zonder_poespas@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That sounds like a wild combination of genres! Do you have any idea what their work process is like?

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

We have chatted and what I gather is they work incredibly quickly, with a focus on being decisive about ideas and arrangements. Find something that works and run with it - don't hesitate to scrap ideas that don't work. That kind of thing.
