Yeah, you read that right. There are more than 325 albums, EPs and singles being released next week. Some are albums that were bumped from the spring. Some are trying to beat the upcoming long weekends and summer holidays. And some are probably leftovers from Record Store Day. Whatever the cause, it all adds up to one of the busiest weeks of the years so far. Mark your calendars and pre-order your favourites — but don’t blame me if things change at the last minute:
