10 Indie/Pop Albums To Look Forward To In 2019

2018 was a great year for the indie/pop scene. With the overwhelming amount of album announcements that have followed us into the new year, its no doubt that 2019 is going to be just as good. Here's just the tip of the iceberg:

1. Maggie Rogers - "Heard It In A Past Life"

Twitter

Maggie released her first full-length studio album in January and it is fantastic. She experienced a rise to fame about two years ago when Pharrell Williams noticed her song "Alaska," and she has been gaining exposure ever since. She is supporting Mumford & Sons on some tour dates this year.

3. Ariana Grande - "thank u, next"

Following the release of Sweetener in 2018, Ariana Grande immediately started writing again, with plans to release "thank u, next" in February. She has already released "thank u, next," "7 rings," and "imagine" as promotional songs for the album.

4. Hozier - "Wasteland, Baby!"

Twitter

It's been 5 years since we've gotten a full length album from Hozier. He graced our ears with his EP, Nina Cried Power, in late 2018, as well as a few other singles, but I am beyond ecstatic for another full project. It's been too long!

5. Billie Eilish - "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?"

Twitter

Billie Eilish has been releasing music since 2016, and 2019 will finally bring us her full-length debut album. She released "you should see me in a crown" and "when the party's over" in late 2018 as singles for the album, and just released "bury a friend" in late January with the album preorder. It's expected to drop in March.

Announced just the other day, "Social Cues" will drop in April as Cage The Elephant's fifth studio album, and the first one since "Tell Me I'm Pretty" was released in 2015.

7. The 1975 - "Notes on a Conditional Form"

Instagram

Following the release of "A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships," The 1975 announced their plans to release "Notes on a Conditional Form" in summer of 2019. Lead singer Matty Healy says the album will be "influenced by British nighttime culture" and that it holds "one of his best lyrics ever."

8. Tame Impala

Instagram

In January, Tame Impala announced that they were a headliner at this summer's Coachella music festival. Their instagram announcement was captioned "New year. New shows. New sounds." Tame Impala has not released a full length album since Currents in 2015.

9. Vampire Weekend - "Father of the Bride"

Instagram

At Lollapalooza in August of 2018, Ezra Koenig announced that Vampire Weekend's fourth studio album was done. This will be the band's first album release since Modern Vampires of the City's release in 2013.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
