I need time to stop moving
Hope you're having the happiest of holidays! Mine have been pretty hectic and beset with health issues, but things are OK all things considered. I'm looking forward to making progress on a number of personal fronts in 2013. I mean, I have joined a sad little chain gym, so that's a positive, right? I get to listen to my podcasts in relative peace and sweat off a few calories in the process. Leaves me a little less time for writing, reading or watching my stories. No problem, really. I hadn't been doing much of the first two lately, and most of said stories are currently on hiatus. One year from now, I hope to be 2/3 the man I am today, but I'm not setting any unrealistic goals.
Moving on, here is something from the 81st through 100th new releases I heard from 2012, taking us up to the hazy days of late summer. I promised myself I'd at least catalog everything I listened to during the year. Who gives a tin shit if it extends into the next one? I have very little to say about most of the selections in this batch, so in the interest of everyone's time, I won't say anything at all. If something piques your interest and you want to know how I feel about it, just click the album title to read a review by someone else who more or less shares my opinion. I will only warn you that this is the weirdest hodgepodge of far-flung musical endeavors I will present for this year. Rock these jams, and I will catch you fabulous people next year.
