Best of 2012: Steve Nover, Part II

TOP 10 ALBUMS OF THE YEAR

Story by Steve Nover

I found this to be a terribly weak year. That said, here are my picks for the top albums of 2012:

1. Dr. John – “Locked Down.” With kudos to the Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, who played guitar, percussion, backing vocals, as well as earning producing & co-writing credits.

2. Neil Young & Crazy Horse – “Psychedelic Pill”

3. Dead Can Dance – “Anastasis”

4. Beach House – “Bloom”

5. Metric – “Synthetica”

6. David Byrne & St. Vincent – “Love This Giant”

7. Beth Orton – “Sugaring Season”

8. Cat Power – “Sun”

9. The xx – “Coexist”

10. White Rabbits – “Milk Famous”
