Which of these 2012 albums should I buy next? (Mostly, but not all, metal)

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed

I just dropped way too much money for a whole slew of 2012 releases since I was criminally tardy in keeping up with new bands and bands I liked already putting out new albums. I cut my list almost in half thus far thanks to an Amazon.com no financing offer (my mailbox hasn't looked this awesome since the late '90s) but my Amazon Wish List of 2012 releases still has 48 items left on it! Ack!

Please let me know which one I should get first and which ones I should avoid.

The price is what it would currently cost me to buy (with shipping for third party stuff; assuming Super Saver free shipping goodness with Amazon direct) which might factor into some of your votes. Maybe the second best one looks better if it's ten bucks less! Of course, you can feel free to ignore this. It's not your money, after all, just my sons college fund!

I promise to make my next purchase the winner of this poll! And I will keep in mind the rest of the voting as well. I trust you fuckers.

i believe you need to create another poll and ask for this one to be deleted

call all destroyer, Saturday, 2 February 2013 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

Bah...

I would vote for the Ufomammut but you need to buy them both in one go. I say Grand Magus.

EZ Snappin, Saturday, 2 February 2013 18:15 (eleven years ago) link

nah .. let the fucker roll for a whole year ..

mark e, Saturday, 2 February 2013 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

and run a new poll so we can see the contrast

pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Saturday, 2 February 2013 18:27 (eleven years ago) link

voted Japandroids because no one else will

but Moss Icon, Ufomammut and Agalloch would be fine choices, too

Here's what I'll do if the modmins cannot change the date: I'll make a purchase based on the feedback and then the poll will fall silently to the bottom. When it revives in 13 months, I will be as surprised as anyone else!
