We are only two months into 2019 and it has already suggested to us that it is going to be a great year for album releases.
Ariana Grande has already blessed us with her number 1 album ‘Thank u, Next’ and Bring Me The Horizon released ‘amo’, their first album in 4 years. With 2018 being such a spectacular year for albums such as Arctic Monkeys’ ‘Tranquillity Base Hotel And Casino’ and The 1975’s ‘A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships’, we cannot wait to see what 2019 has in store for us.
A lot of artists have already confirmed to us we will see new music from them this upcoming year, such as Foals, but many more artists have been rumoured to be working in the studio with no conformation of new music. Therefore, we are here to give you a brief insight into what we can expect in 2019, and from who.
