2012: A musical recap of sorts

Well, another year has come and gone. Do I really care all that much? Nah, not really. Either way though, 2012 left a decent share of good tunes behind for us to remember it by. My list is just that: a list. I'm not ranking it or writing a load of bullshit that no one cares about. If it's on here, it's good, full stop. Enjoy it or at least pretend to:

Anathema - 'Weather Systems'
Barren Earth - 'The Devil's Resolve'
Cannibal Corpse - 'Torture'
Dead Vertical - 'Perang Neraka Bumi' (War Hell Earth)
Deftones - 'Koi No Yokan'
Enslaved - 'RIITIIR'
Gojira - 'L'Enfant Sauvage'
Katatonia - 'Dead End Kings'
Meshuggah - 'Koloss'
Paradise Lost - 'Tragic Idol'
Poets of The Fall - 'Temple of Thought'
The Rasmus - 'The Rasmus'
Rush - 'Clockwork Angels'
Shining - 'Redefining Darkness'
Soundgarden - 'King Animal'
Stone Sour - 'House of Gold & Bones Part 1'
Swallow The Sun - 'Emerald Forest and the Blackbird'
Testament - 'Dark Roots of Earth'
The Wretched End - 'Inroads'

And that's it for me. I spent the rest of the year listening to tunes from 2011 or from when I was a kid. It wasn't the best year but it wasn't the worst either. Hopefully we'll have some good albums drop in 2013.

All the best,
BK
