Thursday Album Release Hype Thread: 6/8/17

4. Sufjan Stevens, Nico Muhly, Bryce Dessner, James McAlister - Planetarium
These days anything with the word Sufjan attracts attention and hype but I'm not sold on this one yet. A conceptual space album channeling Spiritualized the ceiling for this project is phenomenally high. But everything I've heard from and about the project seems to point to a more moderate level of success.

3. Katy Perry - Witness
If there's one thing Katy Perry wants to show off on Witness, it's that shes changed. And that's an exciting prospect for fans and anyone involved in music as an artist with her status is bound to influence following acts with whatever she does thats successful. Witness could prove that Katy Perry is on the cutting edge of pop music every time, or that she has lost her touch since Teenage Dream.

2. Phoenix - Ti Amo
Even though the singles have been hit or miss Phoenix has a quality standard. And it's not unrealistic to expect a solid effort from them this time around. At the very least we got a great title track out of it.

1. BROCKHAMPTON - Saturation
If you like Kevin Abstract, if you like alternative rap music, if you like any rap music, if you like music period, do yourself a favor and listen to Brockhampton. Fire singles have dropped one after another and all roads lead to an unstoppably good and revolutionary hip hop album. Don't miss it.
