Leading up to the end of the year, Revolver has asked some of our favorite artists to pick their Top Albums of 2012 and tell us why each record rules. Here, Jeanne Sagan (pictured left), bassist of All That Remains, selects her faves.
5. Early Graves, Red Horse
“I just love this band and every song on this is awesome. It’s fast, aggressive, angry, and has some ripping guitar riffs.”
4. Motionless in White, Infamous
“I was eagerly awaiting this one and they went the direction I was hoping. Dark, heavy, angry, and with more hints of industrial.”
3. Halestorm, The Strange Case of…
“An overall awesome rock album, and Lzzy Hale is a new hero of mine.”
2. Converge, All We Love We Leave Behind
“They are one of my all-time favorite bands. I like that the band as a whole is exploring and expanding more on their sound on every album.”
1. Baroness, Yellow & Green
“This album just hits all the right spots with me: the tones, the lyrical content, and the musicianship.”
