It's that time of the year where everyone posts their favorite albums of 2012 and I'm very proud of myself for keeping track of these releases throughout the year. My list is a reflection of my personal musical tastes and each and every album listed has been enjoyed multiple times. I do not follow any radio stations or DJs so this list is pure and not influenced by trends, fads, or whatever XMU or some of the other major music blogs will tell you was great this year.
