I've just got the 2015 calendar in my mailbox, and as always I was going to write the release dates in the slots for each day, so I went on DTF to find the new Release Date Calendar, and, weirdly, I didn't find it here! That saddened me to no end, I wanted to complain about it in every thread, but then decided to start the thread myself instead.
As Zantera is apparently slacking, I'll be doing my best updating the list this year (if you guys don't mind, of course). You can count on a lot of quite unknown releases being here in the calendar, because a lot of them usually appear in my inbox; but of course, a lot of albums will be missing, so that's where we all will need your help, guys: if you see some release is missing, or something new gets announced throughout the year, be sure to post any information you have in this thread, be that the album's name, the release date (exact or not exact, like month or even season), any news would be welcome. I'll try to update this thread as often as I can!
