Indeed. I also hope we get the new Megadeth.

I believe Grave Digger are also working on a new album .

Megadeth
King’s X

Once again, still hoping for the new King Diamond we were told was coming three years ago. I'll take a new Mercyful Fate too, since there was talk about that too.

According to Dave Mustaine, the new album should be released next spring.

Angel Dust!

(again - it's soon getting to 20 years they've been on my list of most anticipated albums)

Unfortunately I don’t think we are gonna see the long awaited Dark Angel reunion album. Gene didn’t strike when the iron was hot! They had nothing but downtime for the past two years. Testament wasn’t doing shows or touring. Major missed opportunity!

And what’s up the the Coroner album?? Taking a long damn time doesn’t always make it better… Chinese Democracy is proof of that!

Looking forward to many of those! Especially Reckless Love as the latest is one of my favorite albums of 2021. Also really look forward to a new Ten album as everything I've have is phenomenal (sadly many of their albums are long out of print and I can't find the digital form available for purchase).

Speaking of which, have you heard Gary Hughes' solo album? Just got it recently and it's very good and more or less a Ten album under his name. It will be in my top list of 2021.

“Flood” (Former Tourniquet members)

Dark Angel is very unlikely. When Testament starts touring again, forget it… Gene had all of the past two years to focus on the recording

Funny thing is for me, I see all these new releases coming out and although I want to pick them up I always invariably end up filling gaps in my collection. Overkill is always an exception.
