British metal force Sylosis will enter 2026 with their seventh studio album, The New Flesh, set for release on 20 February 2026 through Nuclear Blast Records. The announcement arrives with the title track, a fierce lead single that captures the band's renewed sense of intent.

Austin's roots-driven Americana rock outfit Uncle Lucius will release a new live album, Live In ‘25, on 21 November 2025. The project documents two sold-out performances at Texas landmark Gruene Hall, a setting that has shaped the band's evolution for close to two decades. The shows yielded a collection that spans the group's catalogue, includes four new songs, and salutes the long history of Texas songwriting.

Rising US heavy music duo The Pretty Wild have released their debut full-length album Zero.Point.Genesis, via Sumerian Records, with the record now available across all major streaming platforms. The arrival of the album follows a rapid rise over the past two years, with the pair accumulating more than 37 million streams and establishing a reputation for emotionally charged, genre-bending metalcore.

A new chapter in alternative folk and experimental rock has arrived, with Scott and Seth Avett of The Avett Brothers joining forces with Mike Patton, the ever-restless voice behind Faith No More and Mr. Bungle. Their project, simply titled AVTT/PTTN, brings together two distinct musical worlds, united by curiosity, kinship, and decades of mutual respect. Released through Thirty Tigers, Ramseur Records, and Ipecac Recordings, the album captures the creative spark that shaped this unlikely trio.

Squeeze will release Trixies on 6 March 2026 through BMG, delivering an album that predates every hit the band is known for. The record contains the earliest songs ever written by Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, conceived long before Cool For Cats, Up The Junction and Tempted shaped the band's legacy in British pop. These songs began life in 1974, years before the band entered a studio, and the story behind their creation offers one of the most unexpected turns in Squeeze's long history.

Chicago's long-running instrumental collective Tortoise have returned with Touch, their first new studio album since 2016, released today on International Anthem and Nonesuch Records across streaming platforms, following last month's vinyl, CD and digital download releases. The record finds the five-piece reconnecting after years spent in different cities, and pushing the band's wide-ranging sound into bigger, sometimes orchestral territory.

Sydney indie duo Clews have arrived at a new chapter. Sisters Lily and Grace Richardson release their debut album, What's Not To Love?, today November 12, a record born from years of upheaval, long-distance collaboration and a stubborn faith in love as a form of resistance.
