Bandcamp Daily's Summer 2025 Hotlist Spotlights Its Most Anticipated New Releases

Open Mike Eagle, Wet Leg, Kokoroko, Alex G, Susumu Yokota and more are all featured in the Summer 2025 Hotlist 

Published quarterly, the Hotlist tracks new releases that are generating the most excitement through fan pre-orders. The list features a range of genres and styles, from metal to indie rock, techno to hip-hop, with featured albums from the likes of Open Mike Eagle, Wet Leg, Kokoroko, Alex G, Susumu Yokota and many more. 

J.Edward Keyes, Bandcamp’s Editorial Director, said: “Working on the Hotlist is always a joy. It’s all about celebrating the records our community is truly excited about, and the selection this time leaves no genre unturned. It’s also inspiring to see the way fans are once again supporting the artists they love by ordering their new albums months in advance.”

This list showcases over 50 records that fans have added to their collections, and like every Hotlist, it’s not based on algorithms but real support from music lovers.
