Most Anticipated Albums of 2026


Recommended Posts

New year, new albums! What are your most anticipated albums this year? Or who are you hoping will grace us with a new LP?

 

Confirmed, teased, or heavily rumoured:

Ratboys - coming up soon on Feb 6!

Courtney Barnett
Kiwi Jr
Big Thief - supposedly they had another album done when Double Infinity released, I am a believer

Kevin Morby 

The War on Drugs

This is Lorelei

 

Not confirmed but I'm hopeful:

Fleet Foxes - last year this was an 'overly optimistic' pick but now, I'm a believer, it's been 6 years, we're ready

MJ Lenderman 

Kurt Vile

Andy Shauf

Alvvays

The Beatles Rubber Soul Super Deluxe re-issue, or something

 

 

Overly optimistic me:

Pinegrove

Bob Dylan

Sufjan Stevens

Peter Gabriel just announced "o/i" (only slightly to be confused with 2024's "i/o", which will be released in similar fashion of one song per full moon.  
Whether it's just discarded tracks from the i/o sessions or really new music, I'm totally here for it.  I love i/o, and think that PG has gotten better with age.  
So I'm very much anticipating this one.  If there are shows along with it, even better.  If there's another PG with orchestra show anywhere on planet earth, I'm there.

Fingers crossed for a new Spoon album this year. It's been four(!) years since the last one. They have been confirmed recording for a while now and even put out a couple of new songs last year. I have to believe they're pretty close to the finish line.
