 Topic: Our Anticipated Albums of 2025Posted: Yesterday at 10:15 |

What are some albums you are looking forward to that are expected to be released in 2025?
The big one for me that is included in PA that I know about is Swans' Birthing. There is no release date set yet that I have found but it already has been mixed and Gira was hoping for a fairly early 2025 release. Gira has said that it will be the last "big sound" Swans album, and then there should be a big ensemble tour by the end of the year. Here is a version of the song "Birthing" done in 2023 for BBC radio. Michaal Gira does not actually give birth during the set. Some other albums that I am interested in for 2025 releases are Squid's Cowards (set for February 7, 2025), apparently a Black Country, New Road album, and Richard Dawson's (not of Family Feud or The Running Man) End of the Middle. Anna von Hausswolff is set to release an album called The music from Atlas Song, but I have seen a bit of the live (a song originally off Dead Magic) and I don't plan to get the release. From https://atc-live.com/artist/anna-von-hausswolff/ "In August 2024, she [Anna von Hausswolff] premiered Atlas Song, a collaboration with choreographers Imre and Marne van Opstal, blending dance and live music in a groundbreaking performance. The music from Atlas Song will be released as an album in 2025." Not in PA: I have read that Joanna Newsom (was surprised she didn't get added to PA) is expected to release an album this year (that would be other most anticipated album now). Eartheater and Perfume Genius are set to release albums and am interested in those acts. I have read that Boards of Canada may finally release another album (purportedly a follow-up to 2013's Tomorrow's Harvest, but the same has been said over the past couple of years. Love to see it come to fruition. Steven Wilson's Overview I expect to make a splash at PA in 2025, but I never got very into his music. That might change.... EDIT: Jim Smith (Tim Smith's brother) of Cardiacs mentioned that Cardiacs' LSD might finally be released in 2025 (April) and had been mixed. The story of the album: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LSD_(Cardiacs_album) Cardiacs E.P. is being officially released (Alphabet Business Concern) on January 25, 2025. https://alphabet-business-concern.bandcamp.com/album/cardiacs-e-p Edited by Logan - Yesterday at 11:56 |

At the moment, the three that I am most anticipating are the new IQ album, the new Pattern-Seeking Animals album and the return of Mike Portnoy to Dream Theater.

yep with that in mind they have a bunch of European gigs lined up for next year across the UK, Germany, The Netherlands, Spain, Norway, Italy and Poland. The ones in February at the Met in Bury are already sold out. In addition they are also playing 2 gigs in Canada and also Cruise To The Edge as well as the New Day Festival next August in Kent. (they also have their traditional Xmas bash at Zoetermeer (Netherlands) this weekend and Islington the following weekend with maybe a first sneek preview of the new album for those lucky fans)

New Devin Townsend.
New Echolyn. New Live album by Riverside. New Ulver. New anything from any band that I like that hasn't released anything in a while...although, sometimes, they turn out to be disappointments.

I wouldn't be surprised if Neal Morse comes up with two or three new releases under different monikers!  Always tough to catch up with him. Some bands/artists on my list with highly anticipated new albums include Steven Wilson, IQ, and really hoping to see something new from Spock's Beard. Furthermore, it would be interesting to get something new by Mastodon or The Mars Volta. I would also like to see a newer, younger band rise to prominence with a progressive sound, doesn't really matter what genre that would be coming from! So hopes are high for 2025, as this year was full of tremendous releases.

Funny you should say that, I saw a post on Facebook from Neal today revealing that he's putting the finishing touches to a collaboration with former Genesis live drummer Chester Thompson.
