That's what i've got. I really thought about including Fucked Up's "Year of the Horse," but as it takes up the duration of a double LP, maybe it's an album instead. Who can say? Anyway, check these out and know that i left plenty of great stuff off of there. And like every other year, i'm sure i'll hear something new in the next couple of weeks that should also be on this list.
Be back tomorrow for a bunch of older songs i just heard for the first time this year.
