Most anticipated 2011 Releases

[Diabolik]

Just saw that Within Temptation have a new one finally coming out. Cant wait for that. Even though the last one was just OK. Still an amazing live band.

 

[General Zod]

ASKA
Circus Maximus
Cynthesis
Darkestrah
Futures End
Graveyard
Jag Panzer
Manowar
Novembers Doom
Primordial
Symphony X

I would love a new Pyramaze disc, but who knows if or when that's going to happen.

Edit: Add Redemption (of course) and Voyager to my list. Had no idea new discs were forthcoming.

 

[Jasonic]

ASKA

This is a band I REALLY need to look into more.
George Call just left OMEN.
Wonder if that means ASKA will be more active in 2011.

Manowar

Is this confirmed, or just an assumption that they are due?
I haven't been keeping up to much on these guys lately.
Though their THUNDER IN THE SKY EP from last year was their best output in years in my opinion, so I would very much welcome a new studio release by these guys, as long as they leave off the filler.

 

[Jasonic]

Wow, when did this happen? And I see they already have a replacement.

Pretty recent. Within the past 2 weeks I believe.
I first heard it from Bob.

edit: forgot Morbid Angel was working on a new one. Don't have high hopes for it. Hoping to be surprised.
Maybe Detox will actually come out. Doubt it.

not a lot, honestly. Most of my favorite bands put out records this year.

Also, where should I start with Aska?

Check out the Avenger disc. I think it's their strongest.

I believe so.

Agreed completely.

Tool
OSI

I feel inclined to mention the Gojira EP as well. I read somewhere that someone decided to label them as "whalecore", which at the time I thought was totally retarded. However, seeing as the entire proceeds of this EP go toward an anti-whaling organization, I'm inclined to think this whalecore thing is only half retarded.

OMG use the return key!

 

[nomisofsiman]

Tool
Pain Of Salvation

Okay first, is this a guess Tool has a new one or confirmed?

PoS is having another album a year after their last?

I was gonna say the same damn thing.

I remember reading about the new Tool album somewhere. Also, its listed on Metal Storm as being released sometime 2011. However, I'm just as skeptical as you are. Gotta be optimistic though!

Road Salt 2.

Yeah, Tool is one of those bands that takes FOREVER to release new albums. I sure hope they do release one next year though.

Figured PoS's next would be part 2 to that. I just didn't think it would be released so soon.

 

[5150]

Don't forget the new Redemption!!!!!!!

 

[Prog_Please]

Also, the Mikael Åkerfeldt / Steve Wilson side project might be released in 2011. Steve Wilson hinted at it during an interview, but since Opeth is coming out with an album next year, the side project might be put off til 2012.
