So... 2011
I started the year overworked and then got saddled with a less than stellar assistant, then I threatened to quit and got the Summer off instead, then I went back, and while the workload stabilized it also diminished quite a bit. Then just around Christmas my roommate let me know he was going to move in with his gf across town. So the diminished workload with my current job was no longer a viable option to cover my bases.
So the tunes that I recall standing out the most or that I found myself listening to the most were:
1 - Deconstruction - LA Song
2 - Monster Magnet - Black Balloon
3 - Slipknot - Circle
4 - Mastodon - The Wolf Is Loose
5 - The Smashing Pumpkins - The Everlasting Gaze
6 - Nomeansno - Humans
7 - Medicine - Time Baby II
8 - Squarepusher - Tensor In Green
9 - Eric Avery - Belly Of An Insect
10 - Future Of The Left - adeadenemyalwayssmellsgood
11 - The Smashing Pumpkins- Age of Innocence
