Best new/most anticipated albums of 2020
 

You asked, I delivered :D (nevermind that I just want one of my threads to get attention).

So, what's happening in 2020 that we're excited for? I haven't seen anything yet (or at least, anything that fits here). But we'll get into it.

Apparently The Cure got three albums in the works. And one of them is supposed to be an incredibly dark labor of love that was initially supposed to drop around Halloween, then was said to release before Christmas. As the weeks have progressed, it seemed increasingly unlikely. So next year maybe? Anyway, whatever they got cookin' sounds interesting and I'm really looking forward to it, even though I'm fully aware that at this stage they haven't really released anything exciting in many years and it might not be that good. But one can dream, right? Stranger things have happened.

Edit: All signs point towards the band getting really bitter, unless they pull a Kevin Shields and just drop it one of these days without warning.

Yooooo... this is usually a thread that my ass makes.

I’m super angry but I’ll get over it, carry on.

Kendrick Lamar

I'd like to think you're joking but with you it's impossible to tell

Nope, it's no joke. I don't dare start the thread myself anymore.

Anyway I'll copy/paste what I already wrote on the 2019 thread:

Oiseaux Tempete will release a new soundtrack album in January or February :

Haha! I had a vague recollection that he had seen his arse about it before and there it is. Bless.

In my defence we'd started the 2019 thread this time last year.

I’m joking this time...

Previously I was only half-joking. Very half-angry when it was taken from me by whoever that was (was it you?!)

Nah man I don’t come here enough anymore to really have a right to care. Hah.
