Big week full of some of 2020's most anticipated releases, but also some absolute trash-looking albums as well.
Deftones, Sufjan Stevens, Idles, and Anna von Hausswolff are my big ones, plus Bendrix Littleton looks very interesting.
Oh, and thank god we finally have a Christmas compilation from Carrie Underwood in September.
