Website showing upcoming single / album releases?

pauseandplay.com

Pauseandplay is a US site, though. What else is available in the UK? This has been bugging me as well...

Anyone? What do you budding freelancers do to find out what's coming out?

metacritic (music)
brainwashed.com

both have long lists of upcoming releases on their sites

They're helpful thanks, but still US-based and more about indieish releases. I suppose I'm looking for a site which has a simple list of what all the major labels are releasing over the next few months in the UK. It seems odd that something so simple is proving so hard to find.

Bump again, someone must know of one...

This one is very good and does a great job with singles as well.

Previously, I updated my own sequenced forthcoming albums releases but due to time constraints I have switched to using rateyourmusic.com

however my music interests are more esoteric/ exotic/ experimental/ extreme:

(Interested to know where you stateside freelancers go; I feel like my old-school technique of checking on individual labels' upcoming-release lists isn't terribly efficient)
