Devil horns, bitches! Even at the Summer Olympics the people wanna rock out with their jocks out. And speaking of which, it's time for the next batch of my absolute faves of the year and this one features some of the most awesome new bands I've come across in a looong while.
In the upcoming weeks I'll try to get rave reviews up on the Pearl Before Swine blog for albums by Needles//Pins, Archie Powell & the Exports, Budokan, Nick Waterhouse, White Wires, Living Deadbeats, and a number of others - all of them easy candidates for end-of-the-year Top 20 honors - but in the meantime check out the tunes on this sampler and see if they don't make you wanna jump in water and synchronize your splashing with a soggy gal pal, devil horns held aloft. Or, y'know, some similar display of excitement.

I am really looking forward to this! Thanks
Let me know what you think, johnnybgoode. Right now, White Wires, Needles//Pins, Archie Powell, and Devin are slaying me - but there isn't a single song that doesn't rock my world on some level.
Don't think I've heard of any of these but I'll trust your judgement which has always been spot on. Many thanks for sharing.

Isn't this a little early? There's still over a month left in 2012? What if the best album comes out in December? (or even next week!)
Not early at all. These are just compilations of some of my favorite songs throughout the year. The UHM best-of-the-year will be up in January.
Not feelin' the love with Mediafire on this one either. Thanks.
