@JLG: Nate was actually a part of releasing 2 amazing records this year Converge's AWLWLB (mentioned previously) and Old Man Gloom's 'NO'. All this love is making me get all weepy! 
- 
^i wanna see your list 
- 
me too! 
- 
Not in any particular order, but here is a preliminary list of what has stuck with me from this year… Converge - All Love we Leave Behind 
 Joyce Manor - Of All Things I Will Soon Grow Tired
 Old Man Gloom - No
 Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d. city
 Neurosis: Honor Found in Decay
 Blut Aus Nord - 777 - Cosmosophy
 Pig Destroyer - Book Burner

 Vattnet Viskar – Vattnet Viskar EP
 Cheap Girls - Giant Orange
 haarp - Husks
 Dragged Into Sunlight - WidowmakerTop Three 
 Pallbearer - Sorrow and Extinction
 Ab Soul - Control System
 Witch Mountain - South of SalemFavorite re-release 
 Kid Brother Collective - Highway Miles. This one's kinda special, was randomly given this CD at some show quite a few years ago and it's always stuck with me. Great album by some dudes from Flint, MI. One of my friends (http://www.lansingscene.com/lprecords/) decided to re release it vinyl, plus I get the chance to see them play in a few days! It's also streaming at punk news I believe for those interested…My best discovery of the year goes to the LA Gemstones: Pop and Rock Compilations. A whole bunch of great 60's pop and rock (http://crystalsphere1.blogspot.com/search/label/V%2FA%20-%20L.A.%20Gemstones) and then there's my guiltiest pleasure of the year, which is Ke$ha's Warrior. A little disjointed, but I think that about does it…

good list!

I just want to take a moment to say Godspeed, Mike Scaccia. Mike was the guitarist of Ministry and Rigor Mortis, and for a few years, he was the Gibson Guitar rep when I worked at Guitar Center. He died on stage last night. He was a super great dude, and had some great stories, and was a killer guitarist as well. Bummer. 
- 
for real???? awful news. so sad to read that. 
- 
Had a seizure in the middle of a Rigor Mortis show in Ft. Worth at a club called The Rail. Told the light guy to turn off the strobes and then collapsed. Unbelievable.  
- 
Just got my fix. 
  
- 
Oh gosh. I'm sorry ahead of time.

Can't stop listening to Devil Makes Three's self titled album. It goes straight into Do Wrong Right which doesn't disappoint, but it's not as good IMO. Listened to a lot of Megadeth today while at work. Nothing says programming like Dave Mustaine? Rounded out the day with Queen on the commute home. …Was a weird day some favs:

Tilts. These guys released one of my very favorite albums of 2012. A "restore-your-faith-in-rock-and-roll" album for sure. My buddy Andrew on guitar and vocals, also plays for Torche, who also released a killer album this year. I think they toured with Converge this fall if I remember correctly.
