Upcoming album releases: 6/2/2026

February 6 stands out in the music calendar, bringing together releases from artists across a wide range of genres — from progressive rock and extreme metal to pop and electronic music. Among the most prominent releases are Illenium — Odyssey, a new studio album from one of the leading figures in contemporary electronic music, as well as Laura Pausini — Io canto 2, which continues her reinterpretation of well-known material. Significant attention is also drawn to Mayhem — Liturgy Of Death, a release from a band that has remained one of the central names in Norwegian black metal for decades. On the same day, new albums from Joji — Piss In The Wind and Nick Jonas — Sunday Best are released, making February 6 particularly important for the pop and alternative audience as well.

The rock and metal scene is especially expansive on this date. Big Big Train — Woodcut adds another chapter to the British progressive rock band’s discography, while the return of Karnivool — In Verses is among the most anticipated events for fans of alternative and progressive metal. The heavier spectrum is further represented by Kanonenfieber — Soldatenschicksale, KMFDM — Enemy, Induction — Love Kills!, Tailgunner — Midnight Blitz and Wolverine — Anomalies. The release schedule is complemented by new albums from Clawfinger, Danny Bryant, and Joe Bonamassa — B.B. King’s Blues Summit 100, alongside records by Ensanguinate, In Aeternum and Epinikion, covering various approaches within heavy music.

The alternative and indie segment on February 6 is equally substantial. Silversun Pickups — Tenterhooks and Ratboys — Singin’ To An Empty Chair attract fans of modern indie rock, while Ulrika Spacek — Expo continues the band’s experimental direction. In pop and related genres, releases include Ella Mai — Do You Still Love Me?, MiSaMo — Play, Hundreds — Sirens and the solo album Jay Buchanan — Weapons Of Beauty. The electronic scene is represented by Daphni — Butterfly and Golden Hours — Beyond Wires, while more niche and independent releases arrive from Dream Nails, Sophia, Dirt Buyer and Wicked Smile. Overall, music releases on February 6 shape one of the most diverse and packed weeks of the season, offering listeners a broad selection of notable albums from 2026.
