French band, self released an EP a few years back. The great, Trouble in Mind records picked them up and put out their first full length in 2018 and their next one comes out in January. I missed them when they came to town in '18 but I won't be making that mistake twice.
First Constellation release of the year is Waxing Moon by Rebecca Foon, out February 21. She has previously released two albums under the moniker of Saltland, consisting mainly of layered cello and vocals, but switched to her given name for this album of more personal songs wherein the primary instrument is now piano. Two tracks can currently be streamed, "Ocean Song" and "Dreams to be Born."
Absolutely stepping out to say my kid's album will be a top ten album for the year. Independent single drops in January. After it is released I will comment on what I think is one of the best sung verses ever. They have no idea how to replicate it. It is pure gold.
The Black Angels have a new album due out in 2020, no date set yet but several IG posts indicating they're working it. If it's half as good as Death Song I'll be very happy.
