Albums Of The Year: 2012

I would start off with 'well it's that time of year again', when in fact that time was about 3 weeks ago. But here's my 2012 list nevertheless, better late than never and all that. Yes, it's in some sort of order, and yes there are 2 mixtapes and a best of in there, so deal with it. Saying that I will probably have forgotten something and disagree with this as soon as I've pressed post. Oh well. Enjoy and disagree...
