Top 10 Favorite Albums of 2012

10. The Seer - Swans.

9. Shields - Grizzly Bear. Indie Folk continues to progress and is slowly becoming my favorite genre.

8. Money Store - Death Grips. One of my fave hip-hop albums ever. An album that makes you wanna tear shit down.

7. The Heist - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis.

6. R.A.P Music - Killer Mike. Not a huge Killer Mike fan but in a very solid year for hip-hop, he stole the thunder early

5. Celebration Rock - Japandroids. My favorite Japandroids album by far.

4. Attack On Memory - Cloud Nothings. Probably my fave rock band out there.

3. Blunderbuss - Jack White. Jack White’s debut solo album did not disappoint.

2. Channel Orange - Frank Ocean. One of my favorite R&B albums of past whatever years. Ocean’s storytelling is unmatchable in the industry.

1. good kid, m.A.A.d. city - Kendrick Lamar. I love concept albums and this is one of the best concept albums ever.

“A mighty pain to love it is,
And ‘tis a pain that pain to miss;
But of all pains, the greatest pain
It is to love, but love in vain.” - Abraham Crowley

“When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.” - Henry David Thoreau

Can’t love anybody else.

Police singing about a hooker.

Probably my second favorite song.

Exquisite.

Hello, I’m Johnny Cash.

Here is your nightly tune from a great Turkish band, Pinhani. As Pierce ( @cardinalstudent ) stated earlier: “They are the most decent band in existence”.

I hope this is just the beginning of my story.
