12.18.12 | List isn't ranked, although 1 and 2 are my two my favourites. |
Keyblade
12.18.12 | oh man great list jamie. thought i was the only one who thought the void was probably beardfish's best. great to see witxes and hidden orchestra.
also, think i'm gonna check out mirroring now in full now. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Thanks bro. |
evilford
12.18.12 | sweet, looks like some interesting stuff on here. but haven't been able to keep up with new stuff this year :/. what would I like here Jamie? |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Sup ford, I can definitely see you digging 1, 8, 13, 15 and 32. |
evilford
12.18.12 | awesome I'll check em out thanks. also checked a couple of your thrash recs good stuff dude |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Sweet, glad you liked 'em. |
evilford
12.18.12 | will be checking the rest too. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | m/ |
Keyblade
12.18.12 | def check out 1 ford |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | You're welcome bro. It's a really good album. |
evilford
12.18.12 | agreed on that! |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Cool, enjoy the rest of your vacation. |
TheNotrap
12.18.12 | Sweet JT. I need to check most of these, specially A Life Within A Day, Thick as a Brick 2 and Viljans Oga. Hybris is very interesting so their last one should be enjoyable as well. |
Satellite
12.18.12 | i've heard of exactly 2 of these
good list |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Hey Notrap. Yeah I'm sure you'll like Viljans Oga. I also think you'd dig 32.
lol thanks Satelite. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Honorable mention: Alabama Shakes - Boys & Girls. Would have included it but forgot. |
greg84
12.18.12 | Great list, especially no. 1. You missed Torche's Harmonicraft and some other stoner rock releases. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Thanks Greg. Heard some of that Torche album but it didn't really do it for me for some reason. Might give it another listen at some point. |
KILL
12.18.12 | first list ive seen with clockwork omg |
greg84
12.18.12 | Harmonicraft is the best stoner rock of the year imo, even though Greenleaf come close. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | I'll give it a proper listen at some point and see if my opinion changes.
Sup KILL |
Jethro42
12.18.12 | sweet list, JT. Lots of stuff I have on my own end of the year list. Just realized I forgot #14 |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | Thanks Jethro. Apparently Crippled Black Phoenix have recently released another album this year, haven't heard it yet, need to give it a listen at some point. |
menawati
12.18.12 | great stuff, got a lot of my best of 2012 and will check out what i missed |
omnipanzer
12.18.12 | *feature five |
evilford
12.18.12 | nice feature!!!!! |
Gnocchi
12.18.12 | Almost expected Rush to fill up 5 spaces on here JT. |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | "great stuff, got a lot of my best of 2012 and will check out what i missed"
Yeah, new we'd have quite a few in common. Definitely check out the ones you haven't heard, I can see you digging most of them.
Hey omni |
JamieTwort
12.18.12 | @Ipod: lol no, Clockwork Angels was definitely one of the highlights of the year but there's been lots of other great stuff too.
Thanks for the feature mods. |
Lambda
12.19.12 | Nice! Check out Gatling - Beforemath |
SgtPepper
12.19.12 | You have really excellent taste here, man m/.
I've been jamming 20 again recently, such a good album. |
MisterTornado
12.19.12 | m/ list with an unexpected amount of bient, repskt |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Thanks guys. |
menawati
12.19.12 | best 2012 list so far along with greg84's |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Thanks mena, will you be making one at some point? |
menawati
12.19.12 | maybe in the new year, still not sure what i'd put on it really and i'd be stretched to find more than 20 |
DrGunther
12.19.12 | Great stuff, looking forward to checking plenty of these out. Didn't even know Colour Haze had a new one out either. |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | There's plenty of stuff on here I'd think you'd enjoy seeing as you like a lot of psych and stoner stuff. 6, 8, 13, 15, 17, 18 and 32 should all be right up your alley, along with the new Colour Haze of course. |
DrGunther
12.19.12 | Cheers Jamie. Had some of those on my radar already, and got hold of 32 yesterday (not heard yet). I'm giving that Lo-Pan album a spin right now on your rec, and liking it!
Not enough hours in the day to keep up with all this stuff unfotunately... |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Glad you're liking Lo-Pan. Hope you like 32, easily my favourite EP of the year. |
omnipanzer
12.19.12 | Great list JT but I hated 21. ;-) |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Thanks omni. Really? I found it really enjoyable, surprisingly so actually seeing as I'm not ususally into that kind of ambient. |
omnipanzer
12.19.12 | I don't know if you got it from the same list I did but I thought the Thriftworks album was way better. |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | I got it quite a while ago, think Captain rec'd it to me actually. I'll check out Thriftworks at some point and see how it compares. |
Keyblade
12.19.12 | ah, think that was my list omni. damn i loved witxes. thriftworks was pretty sweet too. |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Ambient doesn't ususally hold my attention as much as that Witxes album does. Dunno what it is about it but I really like it. |
Keyblade
12.19.12 | dude jamie you should check out venn rain - cymatic cymbols...i think you'll love it. |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Cool, I'll check it, thanks. |
omnipanzer
12.19.12 | "I got it quite a while ago, think Captain rec'd it to me actually. I'll check out Thriftworks at some point and see how it compares."
It was free on bandcamp: http://jatlas.bandcamp.com/album/rainmaker |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Thanks Captain.
@omni: Cool, I'll download it now. |
omnipanzer
12.19.12 | Well worth the price mate. ;-) |
Nagrarok
12.19.12 | Great list Jamie, The Void will likely be at the top of mine as well. Clockwork Angels has excellent material but the production bothered me to a point where I haven't been listening to it as often as I might have liked to otherwise, which is a shame.
I don't think I hold them in quite the same regard but, 3, 5 and 6 were definitely great. But then there's also 7, 10, 12 and 13, which are some of the albums I've been coming back to most this year. Anything among the others that you'd particularly recommend? |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Thanks Nag. I'd recommend checking out 9, 18, 22 and 26. 23 is worth checking out too, although not an essential Gary Moore album by any means but it's a great listen for any Hendrix or Moore fan. |
Jethro42
12.19.12 | ^I take good note myself |
JamieTwort
12.19.12 | Yeah dude, pretty sure you'll dig those too. |
DoubtGin
12.20.12 | retro |
DamnVanne
12.20.12 | Holy shit! Chris Squire and Steve Hackett!??!!! My google search bar is gonna love this |
JamieTwort
12.20.12 | ^definitely worth checking out. |
MeatSalad
12.20.12 | Sweet list, checking out 14 |
JamieTwort
12.20.12 | Thanks Meat. Cool, 14 is great stuff, definitely worth a listen. |
JamieTwort
12.23.12 | Another honourable mention/album I forgot about: Aluk Todolo - Occult Rock. |
DamnVanne
12.23.12 | Thanks for the heads-up on Squackett. It's like 80's Yes meets The Moody Blues, really great stuff |
JamieTwort
12.23.12 | No problem dude, glad you liked it. |
JamieTwort
11.18.13 | Randomly felt like updating this for some reason. Some of the albums that were on here have grown off me considerably and there are some really good 2012 albums that I've listened to since making this list that I felt like adding.
Edited in 22, 24, 25, 27 and 31. |
conesmoke
11.18.13 | cool list, 7 & 17 ill probs check out. lol at squackett, great name for their collab. I saw Chris Squire with Yes a couple years back, he was soo awesome but also hilarious. He kept going towards this fan and letting it push his hair back whilst giving a rock-god guitar pose haha. m/ |
JamieTwort
11.18.13 | Thanks man. Yeah I think they said that name was a joke to start with but they decided to stick with it for some reason. lol, sounds like an interesting show. |
