Top 25 Albums of 2012: #3 – Imagine Dragons – Night Visions…

It’s a little crazy how quickly I became a fan of Imagine Dragons. This summer I bought a ticket to see Awolnation, and I soon saw that Imagine Dragons was the opening band. Who? Never heard of ’em. Then a friend played me “It’s Time” soon after. I liked it. It sounded a bit different. […]

“Rob’s Wall of Music” Top 25 Albums of 2012 – Part 1: #25 – #21…

There were a lot of great albums to pick from this year. And several albums I expected to be in here just weren’t because for one reason or another I felt they fell short. But I won’t spoil it. Here’s the first part, #25-#21. My rule is simply that the album must have been released […]
