The Most Anticipated Music (Part One)

So far 2013 has been an incredible year for music with a lot of big name bands releasing new albums that have blown their predecessors out of the water. However, there are always those bands that you are just dying to hear new material from or perhaps they've been teasing us for a few months now but there's still no definite release date. Here's just a few of those that are guilty of the accused...

VersaEmerge

The success of their debut full length Fixed At Zero saw the band touring their hearts out for a couple of years before starting the writing process for album number two. July 2012 brought us the much awaited 'Another Atmosphere' preview EP which had three fantastic synth-heavy tracks and a StageIt performance with a further two tracks from the album. Now, in October 2013, the news that the duo are no longer on Fueled By Ramen and the uncertainty of when exactly we can expect the second album is beginning to die down but for the fans the wait is one of pure torture. 

Anavae

The UK's much needed alternative rock outfit have blown everyone's expectations out of the water the last couple of years. With every release so carefully thought out and the level of attention put into all they do it's safe to say that the bands second EP 'Dimensions' will grow their already large aermy even more. Roll on November 10th. 

Natives

Unless I missed something i'm 100% sure the pop-rock quintet were supposed to release their debut album back in September, but for reasons unknown it hasn't made an appearance. Their last two EP's have been popular and made for great gigs but we're all getting pretty desperate to hear a full album of Natives goodness.

Brand New

To me, and to a lot of other people, this band are absolute legends. When I saw them live last year it was like a religious experience. They truly are incredible. The intensity, the angst, the talent and oh, yeah their really annoying habit of being inconsistent just keeps me coming back for more. Tour announcements - actually, ANY announcement - is hard to come by from these guys and yet all us die-hards sit and wait with tears in our eyes, our tattooists on the line and watercolours in hand just waiting for another new album.
