I think Resolution is one of the 5 best cd's I've heard all year. I just saw LOG live and Undertow and Ghost Walking were INCREDIBLE live. Actually Straight to the Sun, Ghost Walking and Undertow are 3 of the 20 best songs I heard this year and Number 6 and Desolation are strong also. Mediocre? Not to me...

The fact that it bugs you this much two years on is hilarious.

Pallbearer, maybe? Also Royal Thunder, as someone else said. Plus, I'll bet Yellow & Green ends up getting more love than many of us would have expected, considering what a divisive record it turned out to be. There were many who didn't care for it, but those who did will probably rank it fairly high, and there's a fair number of us around these parts...

Just stating facts. Doesn't bug me but that cd is the true definition of mediocre. I'm sure you think Carrie Underwood is better than Resolution so not like I'm trying to influence anyone. Those songs live slayed! To me that's the true test of great music. Which reminds me. I remember seeing video of your girl butchering one of her songs live on some award show recently... Just sayin'

Cool. I'll be throwing votes at two of those three.

I do not care. At all.

I've seen them live. They're good, LOGs cool for what they are.

The attempted trolling under a nonchalant facade is entertaining. You can't hide the butthurt.

The one you won't be voting for is going to be in my top ten for sure.

I literally cannot stop playing it, at least every now and then. It's SO fucking good.

Whatever you say Man. Just stating facts.. otherwise known as my opinion in this case. hahaha I've been a Rush fan since I saw them open for Kiss but to say that cd is the best cd of 2012 is right along the lines of voting a mediocre Maiden album #1. While new Rush smokes the last Maiden cd, it's gaining Hipster status when people like you try to claim how incredible it is.

To each his own... should be an intersting list this year. If you had told me Meshuggah and Gojira would release new cd's and neither would be in my Top 5 I wouldn't have believed it. Time to give both a few more spins...

Shame on me for giving the new Rush album "hipster status". What the fuck does that even mean?

[XDoomsayerX]

New deftones really amazing?
