Cage The Elephant is also releasing their new album on the same day. It will be a great day for me.


Kintzelmedia

Yes, cage is awesome too!!


niles_deerqueer

It’s my birthday and I’m a fan of all three artists


Steven2597

Oh? It feels like forever since they released Social Cues.


deadpumpkinnn

Yes!!! Matt had some... legal issues, so the band was on pause. They recently release two singles.


Steven2597

I had no idea about that, but yep, carrying a gun into a hotel would get you in legal trouble.


PlaneWorldliness5474

Having it out in a hotel lobby bathroom at that


goosegossage_

Three, actually!


sillygoosewave

Joywave the same day, alt music releases are stacked


Kintzelmedia

Just saw them Live in Minneapolis when they opened for two door cinema club, they were awesome!!


sillygoosewave

I saw them live in 2022 for the cleanse tour, and I truly wish they could open for TOP. Their sound meshes so well


Robeino

I've only heard one song by Joywave but I'll have to check that out too


sillygoosewave

I recommend Shutdown, little lies you’re told, and goodbye Tommy. They’ve got a good collection


Fragrant-Ideal-9393

Imagine this becoming the Barbenhimer of music


gaemouse

i couldn’t care less about billie eilish, but getting the new TOP on my birthday is the best gift i could ask for.


jotyma5

Trench came out on my birthday. It was the best birthday for me since I was a kid (29 currently)


OogaBoogaTypeBo1

Trench came out on my birthday too!!


Sacandaga

Birthday twin!


claystripe

I'm fine with multiple artists I like releasing the same day. Still, as a charts nerd, it bums me out just a little that Blurryface will be their only #1 album (freaking Star is Born, man).


ProfessorBeer

…who gets annoyed by music releasing? If every major artist coordinated releases so they didn’t drop on the same day we would be seriously deprived of so much music lol


raidenziegel

Why does that matter at all. My second favorite band Cage the Elephant is releasing the same day but why would I be upset about that? If it’s people worrying about streaming numbers then that shouldn’t matter


P3RS0N4-X

Cage the elephant is smaller than tøp by a considerable amount. Billie... is the only thing I see standing in the way of another #1 album. And that's what I and others were really hoping for.


Kintzelmedia

music will still be good, number 1 album doesn't do much but make the suits a little more money


EEF_D

Fun fact: my birthday is May 18th so within that span of 48 hours I not only get to listen to new TØP music, but I also get older.


Kintzelmedia

my sisters birthday too!


EEF_D

Aw hell yeah!


Immediate_Theory4738

It just sucks knowing that the #1 is so instantly snatched away. That being said it could happen with any date and they just happened to be unlucky. Would have been awesome to have Blurryface and Clancy both get #1 exactly 9 years apart though.


milkybrewn

Literally can’t wait for all of these drops.


Cydonian___FT14X

Yeah. TOP, Billie, & Cage The Elephant all in one day is gonna be awesome


banditobuster

I'm a big RKS fan too, though this last month or so has been tough lol.


Kintzelmedia

yeah the band has been going through some stuff for a few years unfortunately :/


Lookingout97

Remind me 38 days!


open-aperture96

I’ve counted like six artists I know in addition to TØP that are also releasing albums that day, everyone will be fine ;)


Positive_Alarm9577

Yes!! Im so excited. My school also lets out that day. It’s gonna be the best time ever


kodiakchrome

I’m also a huge Billie fan so getting new music from her has me excited!!! Plus all of the other artists I didn’t realize were releasing that day too. It’s been an amazing year for music so far but not amazing for my bank account haha.


Kintzelmedia

heard. bank account is angry at me for sure haha


superduperyer

crumb releases an album that day too!


Kintzelmedia

omg are you serious!?!?!?! I love them!!!


superduperyer

yes for real! i love the newest single they released which is the title track of the record!


TheRealFakeness21

NO FUCKING WAY DUDE I LOVE CRUMB SO SO SO SO SOMUCH


P3RS0N4-X

I was really hoping for another #1... My hopes are crushed, almost. I'm hoping the vinyl sales can make up some of the numbers... But honestly, that's unrealistic. Just watch imagine Dragons announce may 17th as well... 😑


Deep_Ad1777

Nah I think July/june

salmonthesuperior

Midnight May 17 I'm not sleeping at all I'm just listening to these albums on repeat


cargasjingle

i'm not annoyed by billie i love her and tøp 😍‼️‼️‼️‼️


MuchDistribution6336

Omg guys may 17th is gonna be a good day lol XD Pretty awesome that top and billie are releasing music this year ackk! And from the teaser billie released on instagram it sounds like it's gonna be FIRE


Ok-Emu-4899

I literally cannot wait


Kasmanian_devil

I love that people are upset about two musicians dropping music that same day. There are thousands and thousands of musicians and 366 days this year. The odds that multiple albums release the same day are pretty high


jotyma5

Yeah but when you consider the fact that most people drop albums every 2-4 years, it is kinda crazy how many albums are coming soon


exnihilio13

I am totally down!Two incredible artists in their own right and also two of the best live shows I've ever seen! Maybe there's a collab?


jotyma5

Stop


exnihilio13

Just sayin'...


VeshWolfe

These labels are going to do some data crunching and shift release dates. I would not be surprised if Clancy gets pushed back. Joywave might as well.


Kintzelmedia

I doubt Clancy gets pushed back, especially with it realizing the same date as blurryface 9 year anniversary I would imagine that date is pretty set in stone


Immediate_Theory4738

They could easily move the release date forward a week and secure the #1 but like you said it’s symbolic so the chances of that are next to none. I’d rather have the symbolic release date than the #1 though.


jotyma5

They’ve definitely already done all their number crunching. They don’t just make album release date announcements lightly
