Here at Consequence of Sound, we cover the same news stories and bands as Pitchfork but also pretend to be into the Foo Fighters so that we can appear to have a unique voice in the blogosphere.

Top 20 Bass Music Albums of 2012

First list where I never heard of any music from #1...
http://www.thelmagazine.com/TheMeasu...wFullText=true
So does the reissuse Refused had this year not count for these best reissuse of 2012 list?
I adore Chromatics, but there's no way that album in its released state deserves to be so high on so many lists. If I could include my personal edit of it, it'd be top 20 material for sure, but we're judging albums based on how they exist, not how we wish they existed.
Hey, a list with some good stuff on it:
