Well, my favourite album of all time got some love here, so I can't complain. The Vampire Weekend s/t is also a worthy competitor, and it was nice to see an active thread for one so late in the chronology. I'm hoping for the same for 2013, which is an extremely deep and fantastic year. Really - there is some absolutely amazing music on the year, and if you're a modern music skeptic, you really oughta dive in.
