birdwell Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Dr. Dog - Be The Void still can't get into this album.....hands down their least impressive effort to date, this record goes on my biggest disapointments of 2012 thusfar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest realtalk Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 A lot of good ones, but still too early to say. King Tuff is gonna be top 10 of the year for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Just looking at what's on my computer: Cheap Girls - Giant Orange Black Breath - Sentenced to Life Torche - Harmonicraft Nude Beach - II Swearin' - S/T Merchandise - Children of Desire The Men - Open Your Heart Grasseaters - Congruent Behavior 7" And I'm listening to Treasure Fleet right now and I'm really digging it. Still gotta check out the new Mind Spiders (probs gonna listen to that next actually) and there's probably some album or 7" sitting on my shelf that needs to be mentioned, but I am being lazy right now.

Guest Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Also, there's a ton a shit I missed from last year that I didn't listen to until this year that is making me upset for missing it. Namely Brown Sugar's "...Sings of Birds and Racism" LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 OK, I looked through some of my records. I think the LP version of "The Blind Wink" by Tenement came out this year, so I'm counting it. Also, "Ugly" by Screaming Females. And that sick Big Eyes 7" and the Cheeky and Culo splits with Tenement. Also I'm totally counting Various States of Disrepair by Hickey.

konk Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I haven't spent enough time with Mind Spiders to make a decision yet. I need to use the download code. I wasn't impressed the first time though. Same with Mean Jeans. Best 7" is Masked Intruder easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTTS Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 What comes to mind: Horseback - Half Blood Black Breath - Sentenced to Life Sigur Ros - Valtari Unsane - Wreck Pigs - You Ruin Everything Ides of Gemini - Constantinople Wreck and Reference - No Youth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brevity Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Misser - Everyday I Tell Myself.... Stickup Kid - Nothing About Me EP Pentimento/Young English Split Citizen/Turnover Split Those are just off the top of my head. I agree with others that 2011 had so many amazing releases.

Guest Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Merchandise - Children of Desire Best record of 2012...I was saying this the day it came out, well before Pitchfork caught on, and I stand by my statement. Honorable mentions: Big Eyes - Back From the Moon 7" Hoax - s/t 7" on Painkiller NASA Space Universe LP Toys That Kill - Fambly 42 Crazy Spirit LP Dawn of Humans 7" Bi-Marks 7" ...and probably some more that I am too lazy to look up.

hobohunter48 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Hawthorne Heights - Hope Is it anything like Hate? I tried listening to it, but couldn't get through it. Haven't been a fan of anything they've done since Casey died. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP It's a lot more positive and pop-ier then Hate. I really like it, but it still doesn't have the classic hawthorne heights sound :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
