We are in the third month of the
year 2013. I figure that the flip side to making a list of my favorite albums
of the year would be to make a list of albums scheduled to come out within the
year that I’m excited about. Unfortunately, due to record label politics as
well as other problems, some of these albums may not come out in 2013 (or at
all).
Singers who have fallen victim to
release date pushbacks include JoJo, Missy Elliott, Michelle Branch, and The
Veronicas. Last year I wrote posts on both Branch and The Veronicas because
their albums were supposed to be released within the year. They’re still not
out. I hope that my excitement about an album doesn’t jinx it.
Here is my list of albums (or EPs)
that I am excited to hear. Some of them have singles or release dates or
sometimes both while others don’t even have titles yet. I hope to be on the
ball and give you updates when more information is available, but don’t hold me
to that. Without further ado, here is my list of albums I’m looking forward to hearing
in the coming year:
Utopia EP by Kerli (March 19)
Paramore by Paramore (April 9)
Nocturnes by Little Boots (May 5)
Saving Rock And Roll by Fall Out
Boy (April 15)
Don’t Look Down by Skylar Grey
(Spring)
Portrait of A Chameleon by Blake
Lewis (Spring)
Trouble by Natalia Kills
TBA by Demi Lovato
TBA by Bridget Kelly
The Electric Lady by Janelle Monae
Following
this post will be individual posts on each of the albums listed here. I will
try to include as much information as I can from album title, to first single,
to release date, and perhaps why I’m looking forward to the release of the
album. I shall be posting soon. I hope everyone reading this is doing well.
Feel free to let me know what albums you’re looking forward to getting your
hands on in the coming year or give me feedback on my posts.
