Happy November! Now that the fall release season is in full
swing, it’s time to take a look at some of the new albums coming out throughout
the month.
There are a lot of big albums coming out in November. Sam
Smith, Taylor Swift and Maroon 5 will all be releasing their highly anticipated
new albums this month. Evanescence will be making their official return to the
rock scene as well. November will also see new albums from the likes of Morrissey,
Bjork, Noel Gallagher and more.
Vinyl Bay 777, Long Island’s music outlet, loves new music.
That’s why we’ve compiled this list of some of the most anticipated albums of
November. From pop to country to rock and punk, here are 11 albums to watch out
for.
1.
Maroon 5, ‘Red Pill Blues’: Following their 2014 album, ‘V,’ and two successful
stand-alone singles, Maroon 5 return with their new album, ‘Red Pill Blues.’ Featuring
collaborations with the likes of SZA, Julia Michaels, LunchMoney Lewis and A$AP
Rocky, the album continues the band’s stride further into pop music. (11/3)
2.
Sam Smith, ‘The Thrill of It All’: It has been
three years since Sam Smith crooned his way onto the pop scene. Now he’s back
with his highly anticipated sophomore album, ‘The Thrill of It All.’ The lead
single “Too Good at Goodbyes” has already been blowing up on Adult Contemporary
and Top 40 radio. Combined with the way people seem to faun over him, this
album could possibly top the Album chart next week too. (11/3)
3.
Evanescence, ‘Synthesis’: Evanescence are
finally back with a new album after nearly six years. ‘Synthesis’ re-imagines some
of the band’s biggest hits with a full orchestra. There are also two new songs
on the album, including single “Imperfection.” Evanescence’s music is already
dark, haunting and beautiful and such arrangements feel like they would be a
natural compliment to their sound. (11/10)
4.
Taylor
Swift, ‘Reputation’: Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated new album comes out
this month. The sound is a change of pace for the singer, showing off a “harder
edge” to the once country crossover superstar. (11/10)
5.
Quicksand, ‘Interiors’: Punk/metal band
Quicksand broke up in 1995 after the release of their album ‘Manic Compression.’
The band tried to reunite for a new album in 1999, but the attempt failed as
the band couldn’t see eye-to-eye. This makes the release of ‘Interiors’ even
more exciting, as it would make it their first new album in 22 years. (11/10)
6.
Faith Hill & Tim
McGraw, ‘The Rest of Our Life’: It’s surprising that country power couple
Faith Hill and Tim McGraw have not released a duet album together in the 21
years that they have been married. That changes this month when they release ‘The
Rest of Our Life.’ Both artists have had huge success individually and putting
the two together has the potential to be even more amazing. (11/17)
7.
Morrissey,
‘Low in High School’: Smiths frontman Morrissey is back with his 11th
solo album, ‘Low in High School.’ The album’s first single, “Spent the Day in
Bed,” has a uniquely mesmerizing new wave tune and an interesting take on the
politics and culture of the time. Hopefully the rest of the album will have a
similar feel. (11/17)
8.
Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, ‘Soul Of A
Woman’: It’s been almost a year since Sharon Jones passed away from pancreatic
cancer. Now the world will get to hear her final recordings when ‘Soul Of A
Woman’ is released this month. According to an interview with Daptone Records co-founder
Gabriel Roth in Rolling Stone, Jones never recorded anything unless she was
really feeling it, so chances are this album will be just as amazing and
soulful as her previous ones. (11/17)
9.
Fieldy, ‘Bassically’: The Korn
bassist hasn’t released a solo album since his rap project Fieldy’s Dreams put
out ‘Rock’n Roll Gangster’ in 2002. ‘Bassically’ will be more funk and jazz
inspired than that, focusing more on the basses he’s playing and where he’s
playing them. (11/17)
10.
Bjork, ‘Utopia’: Avant-garde songstress Bjork is
releasing her ninth solo album, ‘Utopia,’ this month. The album is supposed to
be a bit more upbeat than her last, 2015’s ‘Vulnicura.’ That is already
apparent with the album’s first single, “The Gate,” a calculated and
minimalistic song with ethereal and enveloping-ly orchestral qualities to it. (11/24)
11.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, ‘Who Built
the Moon?’: First Liam Gallagher released his album, now it’s brother Noel’s
turn. His band the High Flying Birds is back with their third album, ‘Who Built
the Moon?’ The album finds Noel reuniting with his former Oasis
bandmates Chris Sharrock and Gem Archer, who are taking over on drums and
guitar, respectively. (11/24)
November is gearing up to be one of the biggest months of
the year for new albums, as some of the biggest artists in the world have new
music coming out. These are some of the albums we think might be worth checking
out. Keep an eye out for these and let us know what album’s you’re excited for this
month.
