As we say goodbye to 2014 and finalize our year-end lists with the best music from the past 12 months, we’re also looking head and gearing up to start the process all over again.

Below lists all the upcoming releases expected in the inaugural month of 2015, including new albums from Belle & Sebastian, the Decemberists and the highly anticipated reunion album from Sleater-Kinney – and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

These forthcoming releases are undoubtedly a sign of great things to come in 2015. So maybe in another 12 months from now, we’ll be polishing our 2015 year-end lists featuring some of these very releases.
