Your essential album release calendar.
While we flag up the best new vinyl releases for you on a weekly basis, it’s also nice to know a little further in advance what you might want to save your pocket money for.
What follows is a loosely curated list of forthcoming vinyl releases from across a range of genres, labels and artists we believe worthy of your time.
For the sake of concision, the list below includes only new albums. That means no 12″s or 7″s and only the odd exception when it comes to reissues and compilations. The calendar corresponds to UK release dates accurate at time of publication (early July), but the fluid nature of vinyl releases means some of these are liable to change. The list will be updated on a monthly basis.
