The 11 Best Albums of 2012

It’s the end of the year.  2012…and we survived.  Unless some mad Mayan rises from the grave in the next three days and turns us all into zombies and the inevitable Irwin Allen disaster picture.  Anything’s possible.

So here are my top pics for favorite albums of 2012.  It’s really a toss-up between Jack and Corin.  I went with Corin in the final coin flip because I find myself going back to the record more than JW.  It’s honestly the strongest thing she’s put out since the heart of the Sleater-Kinney years…if not better in some ways.

Now it’s your turn.  Send in your top album pics for 2012 and I’ll compile them in my super 111 best album list that I’ll post about a week from now.

Remember it doesn’t have to be twenty.  It can be any number of albums you liked.  Just post them in the comment section or email me.

Have a great new year!
