[SteveO]

Well folks we're into the 10th month of 2012 so I was curious as to what albums have tweaked your interest so far this year ?

My favorite of the year is definitely:

ANATHEMA - Weather Systems (previously reviewed on MD)





Here are a few songs from this magnificent album:

I'll come up with a few, although based on online listens only

^ Hello my friend ! I also have only purchased a handful this year ! Combination of restricted funds (semi retired ) and lack of interest...(heard it all before syndrome)...lol

^ Hello my friend ! I also have only purchased a handful of albums from this year (restricted funds as I'm semi-retired and overall lack of interest..lol.. I guess it's the Heard It All Before ..NOTHING NEW HERE Syndrome ...lol). All of my listening comes from MD and on line streaming from Grooveshark(Canada's Spotify) and AOL...if it hits me I'll buy it !

i was just starting to compile my favourite new albums list for 2012 on the weekend....

things could change with a few of them over the next couple of months but Springsteen's one,Jack White and Angus Stone will certainly be there for me as will Dylan's one.

Heh, unlike you guys I have a ton of albums from this year that I love. I think I'm forgetting one or two. Its just been a great year for music, for me at least. Anyway, my top 10 so far:
1.
"Shape Shifter" - Santana

2.
"Six String Soldiers" - Frank Hannon

3.
"Driving Towards the Daylight" - Joe Bonamassa
4.
"Horizons" - Tetrafusion

5.
"All I Was" - Tremonti
6.
"Helen Burns" - Flea
7.
"The Projectionist" - Peter Anthony Red
8.
"Apocalyptic Love" - Slash

Though, 8 will most likely be bumped off and a few will have to be shifted in the coming weeks as 3 new albums that I'm really excited for drop. Been a fantastic year for music.
