Guest Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I totally gotta get on that Grabass Charlestons album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 This little guy right here is the best album of 2012. Its the Frozen Teens self-titled and its fucking great. FFO: The Marked Men, The Bananas, Shang-A-Lang, etc. I know Youtube sucks for listening to music on, but if you dig it even a little you can get it here.

GradedOnACurve Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Full-lengths Propagandhi - Failed States (Far and away the best LP of 2012 for me) Hot Water Music - Exister Minus The Bear - Infinity Overhead Luther - Let's Get You Somewhere else Anchors - Lost At The Bottom Of The World EPs (in no particular order) Gates - You Are All You Have Left To Fear The Stereo State - Crossing Canyons Cleave - The Circle Daylight - The Difference In Good And Bad Dreams Restorations - A/B There were good albums this year, but not many that blew me away. 2013 I think is going to be much better.
