Hi 😀 Christmas is just around the corner, and we’re taking stock of some of the absolute best albums of the year, which we’ve gathered in a handy overview for you. You can even order them on vinyl and CD, if your collection could use a fresh new masterpiece. When it comes to Christmas deliveries, we unfortunately can no longer guarantee that packages will arrive in time for Christmas at this point. If you still haven’t found the perfect gift, our electronic gift cards are a safe bet. That way the recipient can explore our huge online selection at their own pace. If you’re ready to look a bit ahead to 2026, we’ve also put together a selection of popular new pre-orders for you. This includes a range of limited January reissues of classic rock albums, as well as vinyl editions of the last two albums Prince released during his lifetime. This marks the first time these two albums are officially released on vinyl. Dive into it all below ⬇
The music year is drawing to a close, and once again we’ve been treated to a wide range of exceptional albums from both new and well-established artists, spanning an impressive variety of genres. It’s been a year marked by phenomenal artistic comebacks from artists such as Deftones (their best album in decades?), Deafheaven, Lady Gaga, Lily Allen, as well as Pulp with their first album in more than 20 years, and hip-hop superduo Clipse with their first release in over 15 years. Other artists simply seem to continue their streak of truly outstanding releases, including Viagra Boys, Anna von Hausswolff, FKA twigs, Ethel Cain, Turnstile… and not least Geese, who appear almost untouchable these days. In the eyes of several music publications, they’ve delivered the year’s very best album with “Getting Killed”. That is, until a certain Latin pop star suddenly caught everyone off guard with a wild classical/pop crossover album unlike anything heard before — and by far the best-reviewed pop album of the year. Of course, we’re talking about Rosalía and the album “LUX”. An album that also happens to be the most in-demand vinyl release right now, and one we unfortunately won’t see repressed until some time in 2026. At the link below, we’ve gathered all of the above — along with many other albums that have been hailed as among the very best of the year. So if your record collection could use some new blood, you’ve come to the right place.

# Start Your Ear Off Right 2026
Start Your Ear Off Right is an annual January event that features a series of one-time reissues of acclaimed albums, designed to kick off the vinyl year in style. The main focus is on classic rock, but you’ll also find gems from other corners of the musical spectrum. In 2026, we can look forward to reissues from artists such as Rush, Cheap Trick, and The Monkees, along with a couple of highly sought-after film soundtracks on colored vinyl: Fight Club (on pink vinyl) and the nu-metal tinged soundtrack to the cult horror film Queen of the Damned (on red vinyl).

# Prince HITnRUN Phast One & Two
The final two albums Prince released during his lifetime are now being released on vinyl for the very first time. The endlessly prolific global icon maintained his remarkable creative pace right up until the end. Both albums were released in 2015, and the standard was, as always, exceptionally high. HITnRUN Phase Two in particular has since become something of a fan favorite within his vast catalog in the years following its original release. Out January 30.
