Anticipated New Releases – 2010

So I meant to do this ages ago, but work and school intervened like they always do (I’d add life, but those two are my life). Anyway, these are the albums I’m mostly looking forward to, culled from my personal lists and online lists. Ones I’m really looking forward to are bolded.

Of course, the best thing about modern music is the beauty of serendipity. So I’m hoping for a lot of random discoveries as well.
