Driven By The Snow






 Man, we want that hi-fi system above....

Here we go!  Day 2 of the Big Rock Candy Mountain Top 50 Rekkids of 2012!  Good times!

Y'all might notice a lack of 7"'s on the list...gonna give 'em their own list eventually.

Also, y'all might notice that we have virtually no major label releases on our list (maybe a couple of exceptions coming up).  Oddly, that's not so much on purpose, but more, well, the fact that the "majors" don't really release anything interesting.  It's just not in their nature.

The Big Rock Candy Mountain Top 50 Records of 2012, Part 2
