Looks like Menzingers is early favourite for album of the year

now, now? where art thou.

The new Jukebox the Ghost is so awesome. Just came out last month, but still, super awesome. I love Joe's list the most I think.

I dunno. I'm with the other guy. This has been the weakest 6 months that I can remember. I can't even make a top 10 since I don't even have 10 albums I like at this point.

Yeah, it's been a slow six months.

Friends - "Manifest!"

I could make an attempt and I'm really glad when the staff does it bc I usually find a few bands that I didn't know of before. I'm just used to having some amazing releases the first 6 months. Only ones that stand out to me are ETID and the Menzingers. I think the second half will be loaded though with gaslight, yellowcard, minus the bear, etc.

1. The Menzingers-On the Impossible Path




2. Right Away, Great Captain-The Church of the Good Thief
3. Of Monsters and Men-My Head is an Animal
4. Beautiful Things-Anthony Green
5. The Gaslight Anthem-Handwritten

Top Ten Songs

1. Mexican Guitars-The Menzingers
2. Fur Stop Caring-Right Away, Great Captain
3. Overbiter-Say Anything
4. Can't be Satisfied-Anthony Green
5. Emmylou-First Aid Kit
6. Amazing Eyes-Good Old War
7. One Foot-Fun
8. National Anthem-The Gaslight Anthem
9. Timelines-Motion City Soundtrack
10. Your Bones- Of Monsters and Men

I really enjoyed Every Time I Die and Motion City Soundtrack. Impending Doom had a great album as well.
