[zubinmoosa]

As Cities Burn - Hell or High Water

[thehereaway]

Tough one, i'd say either Grammatics - s/t or Castledoor - Shouting At Mountains. My full list of albums so far is here http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?p=44332202#post44332 202 but if i had to pick a favourite it would be out of those two.

[Charles777]

Thanks, dudes. I'll give them a listen tomorrow.

[ikikwe]

Shook Ones - The Unquotable A.M.H. It's awesome if you enjoy Lifetime, Kid Dynamite or what have you.

[Takk...Ros]

POS - Never Better
excellent choice, but I'm going with As Cities Burn so far (if I'm not allowed to pick Manchester Orchestra :-p )

[Charles777]

MO rules, but I ALWAYS hear about how great they are.

[KidRobot]

Animal Collective- Merriweather Post Pavilion

[undonesweater93]

Late of the Pier - Fantasy Black Channel

[zrac99]

Grey Britain - Gallows

[Wisher]

kevdev - brothers blood

[dumhed01]

The Dangerous Summer- Reach For The Sky
New Found Glory- Not Without a Fight
Green Day- 21st Century Breakdown (i know, kill me)

[myplasticyou]

silversun pickups- swoon

[nikaidoh]

POS - Never Better

This album gets better every time I listen to it.

Shook Ones - The Unquotable A.M.H. It's awesome if you enjoy Lifetime, Kid Dynamite or what have you.

Yes.

Animal Collective- Merriweather Post Pavilion

I don't know, definitely not Animal Collective's best album, and I don't think it's the best album of the year thus far, but still a great pick.



As for me, I'd have to say Manic Street Preacher's Journal For Plague Lovers, Japandroids' Post-Nothing, or maybe The Pains of Being Pure at Heart's eponymous LP. Bill Callahan's Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle however is at the top of my list currently.

[squared82]

mewithoutYou - it's all crazy! it's all false! it's all a dream! it's alright

definitely different than anything else they've released, but it's spectacular.

[Charles777]

Lots of music. I'll try to get to them all.

8-)

[Wisher]

This.

:) glad we agree

[popdisaster00]

Fireworks - All I have to Offer is My Own Confusion

[Bloodsucker II]

i cant decide on one...

As Cities Burn - Hell Or High Water

P.O.S. - Never Better

Oceana - Birtheater

I was really surprised by much I like Birtheater considering how I never cared for their older stuff but this new album is just really good.

[Charles777]

I doubt that I'll need any more recs... I have my hands full. I'm starting off with Never Better.

[yoyostring]

the new Emery is fucking awesome.

[MattRM]

Mansions - New Best Friends

[Bloodsucker II]

I doubt that I'll need any more recs... I have my hands full. I'm starting off with Never Better.

Great choice sir.

[Charles777]

Great choice sir.
Judging by the first two songs, this is really great

[Bloodsucker II]

Judging by the first two songs, this is really great

It really is. At the moment "Graves" is my favorite track of the album.

These were awesome. Moving on to this...

As Cities Burn - Hell or High Water

[Bloodsucker II]

Hell Or High Water is great. Have you heard any of ACB other work?

[ashcroft]

P.O.S. - Never Better
K'naan - Troubador
Mastodon - Crack The Skye

[Charles777]

I saw them a few years ago (my first concert), and they put on a good show. Didn't care for the music much though. I'm liking this album so far. Made Too Pretty reminds me of Incubus and I had to skip through Into The Sea.

[emopunkfan]

the new House of Heroes record is my favorite

Petty is awesome

[screamoutmyname]

I'll judge it by choosing the one I've been able to listen to most without getting sick of it... And that would be New Found Glory's Not Without a Fight.

[Charles777]

Petty is awesome
Okay, this can't be right at all. I'm listening to Petty right now, and it's a song I heard in a Tony Hawks Pro-Skater for the Playstation. I think it might be an Alien Ant Farm song. What the fucking hell?

Edit: Yup. I was right. This song was in the place of petty.

Where the fuck did you download it from if you couldn't even get the right track listing? I remember this song from Tony Hawks - great nostalgic moment for me right now.
