Five best albums of January/February
I thought that it was going to be incredibly difficult to match 2011’s music. I was introduced to a number of a new bands and some of my favorite bands put out amazing albums. The first couple of weeks of 2012 were slow, but over the course of the last month I’ve come across some pretty exceptional music. And this year seems to have a lot of potential for great music.

Me: I really thought I used hyperbole more than anyone on Earth. You win though.
PI: No seriously. I've never been more entertained.
Me: That can't be true.
PI: Let me put it this way... The Bourne Identity is the most entertaining thing I've ever seen, and I would much, much rather watch this.
