With the end of the decade rapidly approaching, 2019 has been an especially backward-looking year. Here at Stereogum, we examined the entirety of the 2010s this fall, then followed it up in December with our usual slate of year-end coverage. Now that we’re finally finished assessing the last 10 years and the past 12 months, it’s time to set our sights on the future again.

In keeping with tradition, our staff has assembled a list of the albums we’re most looking forward to in 2020. The countdown ranges from projects with officially announced titles and release dates to educated guesses based on hints, hunches, and privileged information. Not everyone mentioned below is guaranteed to release an album next year, but nothing here is a complete shot in the dark, either. We have our reasons.

Without further ado, we present the most anticipated albums of 2020. Have a look, then let us know which upcoming releases you’re looking forward to.
