Most exciting upcoming album releases:
February 27, 2026
On February 27, the music calendar fills up with dozens of major premieres, and among them, releases by global stars and cult bands stand out in particular. Among the most anticipated is the new album Deadline by Blackpink, once again drawing attention to the South Korean quartet that continues to hold strong positions in global charts. No less notable is the release of The Romantic by Bruno Mars, an artist long established as one of the leading pop performers of his generation. On the same day, alternative scene fans are awaiting The Mountain from Gorillaz, a project that for years has combined virtual aesthetics with musical experimentation. One of the key premieres is also Man on the Run (OST), a soundtrack associated with Paul McCartney, whose influence on global music remains immense. Special attention should be given to Solo Piano by Ludovico Einaudi, continuing the piano-driven path of one of today’s most recognizable contemporary composers. In the singer-songwriter segment, Hen’s Teeth by Iron & Wine is being released, while indie rock listeners are focusing on Nothing’s About To Happen To Me by Mitski.
At the same time, February 27 offers a wide range of genres — from metal to neoclassical and electronic music. The guitar scene is strengthened by Wroc from Paul Gilbert and From The Fade by Joel Hoekstra’s 13, while progressive rock fans are discussing L.I.F.T. by The Neal Morse Band. The electronic direction is represented by Dreams Of The Machine from the duo Tinlicker and new material from Carpenter Brut — Leather Temple. Heavy music enthusiasts will find in the list Paralyzed by Black Swan, The Great Satan by Rob Zombie, Where The Light Leaves by Varials and Transcend Into Oblivion by Necrofier. The European scene is represented by Lúa from Spanish songwriter Andrés Suárez and Luz by Antonio José, as well as Deja Vu ½ by German artist Clueso. This release day brings together artists from different generations and styles, confirming that the end of February will be truly intense for the music industry.
