There's a lot of music I think worth talking about coming out today, and instead of making individual topics for each, I figured I'd make one for the week itself; maybe this could be a recurring thing to keep us discussing new stuff as it comes out? The album I'm most hyped for doesn't even get a spot on the front page of Metacritic, so I almost missed that it came out today...let me know if there are others I should list.

Does anyone else find this useful? I know no one's commented, but I figure everyone will do the actual discussing in the Albums of 2017 thread. I just figure a topic like this would be a nice reminder each week, but I'd like to get other's thoughts.

It is useful, so please do it if this isn't too time consuming ?

I feel like that

I also like this feature, Bluepanda. I try and keep track of upcoming albums I'm interested in, but I inevitably miss some. A thread like this would be a great reminder.

Keep it up.

I have to admit that I absolutely need to listen to Perfume Genius' new album. Actually, I still need to listen to Too Bright. I still sometimes play "Queen" and what a tune that is.
