I've been immersing myself heavily in the tracks from 'year-end lists', and all I can say is, I am completely weary of it. The songs are the same machine generated music and it's beginning to feel worn out. I already know the music that summed up 2012 for me and will be sharing it maybe later next week. But for now, here is a track and consequently an album that only had my conviction the second time around I gave it a listen. I've discovered that Chairlift's Something is an album that needs to be taken with a huge dose of 80s mentality. Once you've got that pat down, the rest as they say, will simply fall into place.
