    I forgot all about Smashing Pumpkins' new one. That one surprised me with how good it is.

    By the way, if you click the album covers in my first post there are links to my favorite songs from those albums if you're at all interested in listening.

    That's a shame. Not even Dinosaur Jr? I have a list of my top 30 from this year somewhere on my computer. Here are some links to stuff you and others might like:

    Ty Segall is cool and makes awesome garage rock type music.


    Japandroids is like fuzzy rock music. Kindof anthemy 80s post-punk stuff.


    Cloud Nothings have a similar anthemy 80s post-punk sound so if you like Japandroids you'd probably like Cloud Nothings.


    Kishi Bashi has a good song that is in some commercial, i'd be surprised if you weren't familiar. You should recognize it starting around 50 seconds:


    but if you like indie rock bands with like a 70ish bluesy sound to them, you should definitely listen to Dr. Dog cause they rule and I think you have a good chance of digging them:



    there was also a few real good hip hop releases, some of which were released as free mixtapes if you want links.

    I have too much time on my hands.

    Sorry MO I meant to click reply and I clicked edit by mistake. That is why it shows I edited your post....

    anyways...

    I understand that, to clarify, I liked the new Matchbox 20 album this year but most of the time I still listen to 90's grunge.... Referencing our mutual like of the smashing pumpkins but neither of us have their new album. Hope that clears it up

    Thanks MasterShake!!!

    Their support tour for Oceania was amazing. They had the same guy who did The Wall big screen graphics for The Who's recent tour do a big orb above the stage. During Tonight Tonight during the encore it played the original 1920's movie the music video was based on. Horrible audio on this, but you get the point:



    My friend actually ran into their new bass player Nicole Fiorintino the day of the show at some restaurant. Lucky *******.

    They sound a lot like Arcade Fire or even early Pixies stuff to an extent. Pretty good, I like it.

    My top 5, in no particular order. I dont expect anyone to agree with me so dont bother pointing out how much the music I like sucks.

    The Black Keys - El Camino (came out December 2011 but I consider it a 2012 album.


    Sheepdogs


    The Heavy - The Glorious Dead


    Alabama Shakes - Boys and Girls


    Soundgarden - King Animal


    If I think of more I guess I will add to this

    Black Keys and Alabama Shakes are definitely up there for me. I'll add StoneSour, Jack White, Bruce Springsteen, Frank Ocean.

    That's my non-metal list

    Everyone seems to like the Jack White album, I will have to give it another listen because it was probably the first one I didn't like from him (or his bands)

    It grows on you. After the first listen, I thought it was decent, but after the next few, I found myself playing it over and over again.

    They are ok. They remind me of early Pumpkins if that is what you are getting at.

    In my opinion...HELL NO. It's not a bad record, but Chris Cornell hasnt had his 90's range for about 15 years.

    It probably falls somewhere between Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and even a bit of his Zwan side project. It has a lot of synth guitar walls and good bass lines. This is one of my favorite tracks from the album:

    no, it isn't quite the same but its a solid album. I seen them play earlier in the year and they did a 26 song set, Cornell may not have the range he once had but he is still a very, very great singer with a very strong voice.
