Disclaimer - If anyone finds these vids at all offensive, or if Mods deem them explicit or whatever, it was not intentional. They do not represent my views (talking about the Declare Independance one, even though it captures some of my views yeah shut up).

TBH, I've bought lods of music this year, but it's all from a few years ago. Only in the last year and a bit has my musical life fully awakened. I'm sure I'm missing some, but that's the ones off the top of my head.

I think I go with songs no album has really grabbed me yet.

Robert Plant/Alison Krauss - Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On)
Miranda Lambert - Gunpowder and Lead

Led Zeppelin - Mothership gets an honourable mention.

I'd have to look through a list, but two albums I know I got and enjoyed this year would be Wincing the Night Away by the Shins, and Ziltoid the Omnicient by Devin Townsend.
