Best Rock Album in 2012


Ok folks, let's get another one started. Best yearly thread for us rock fans.

Not really rock, but like Gotye "Making Mirrors" so far.

Cheers,

Richard_stacy,

Thanks for the Hiss Golden Messenger-"Poor Moon" recommendation. I had never heard of them. Called the album up on MOG and am really liking it. Need to order the CD I guess.
Frankie Rose - Interstellar is fantastic. She used to drum for Dum Dum Girls...she is quite tasty...sounds like the vocalist from The Cranberries without the warbling fronting an indie-rock band. Of course the album of the year is my band's album :-) If you like down-tempo electronic music, BASS and shoegaze stuff you might dig it. Here's a Spotify link if you do that sort of thing.

Larvae - Exit Strategy

I think that Kevn Kinney and the Golden Palomino's "A Good Country Mile " is a really strong release.
Synthfreek - Never know who's lurking on these forums! Love your stuff and been a fan for a while. I've got Monster Music, Dead Weight and of course the new record. Really like the direction you have taken, Exit Strategy is a great record. I played it constantly the first week I had it here, one of those that just walked into heavy rotation. Especially early morning or late late night...nice stuff.
