2012 was no different from previous years for me in that I'm still more of a songs guy than an albums guy. It just takes longer for a whole album to show its charms to me and I struggled with what to put on this list, how to rank it, and even whether to do an albums list at all.
So here are the 20 albums from 2012 that made the biggest impression on me. So far. Alphabetically.
