It's a little early now, but once we get into 2015 there will be great albums to listen to. Some stuff already leaked or is available like Viet Cong's self-titled, which I've heard and liked. Anyway this is the thread for albums that come out in 2015.

Sun And Moon by Timbre

I'm only 5 songs deep, but hot damn. This record is likely to be a stunning masterpiece, unless there's some unexpected guest spot from Scott Stapp. But in all seriousness, this is in the realm of Joanna Newsom but with a bit of Son Lux fanfare. She also plays the harp. Doesn't have Newsom's unique voice or lyricism, but has a lot else to offer.

I'd honestly expect more than a few of you to place this in your top 10 for the year.

Kyoumei by Chatmonchy

My favorite Chatmonchy record in years, probably since Kokuhaku which is saying a lot. Exactly what you should expect from Chatmonchy and they feel like they are on full drive here with a fuller sound that elapses occasional synths. Bliss.

I've hears this. It's very enjoyable but it is overlong. It will probably be in my top 10 with more listens.

Yeah it's a bit long, but I guess that's what's to be expected from a double album that can be split into two parts

you guys also need far more Bill Fay in your lives

Looks like 2015's summer anthem is sorted, courtesy of Jamie xx and Young Thug. Yes.

This album is going to be so tight. This is a fantastic surprise. I wish the track was at least a solid minute long though, but that's hardly a complaint.

Also, the vinyl looks dope.

Oooooh, bright colours.

Anyway, will drop this off here in case it gets lost in the 'What album' thread:

Henry Blacker - Summer Tombs (2015)

Sludgey, kind of claustrophobia-inducing stoner rock, not too dissimilar to Kyuss at times, but punkier. Recommended to Rocky, Repo, Gowi, and maybe Saoirse (dunno, just a strange hunch based on nothing). Good shit. Not on the same level as Elder's Lore (which is a masterpiece), but definitely one of the stronger records of its kind that I've heard this year.

Yup 🤣

I probably won't buy it though because of it's lack of practicality. Having a 6-sided 40 minute album is just kinda silly.

Not for DJs.

When I first heard this I thought it was pleasant to begin with, but then the second half kicked in and it just became an entirely different beast. It's a stunning record, and it deserves far more attention than it's getting. I can see it developing a small passionate following over the next couple years.
