Bunny Gamer's Top 100 Albums of 2012. Part Five: 10-1.

Well, this is it. The top ten albums of the year for me. I know I missed a lot of great works from this year, trust me, I do, but 100 albums is already a bit much. There really isn't too much to say here--all of these records are absolutely incredible and deserving of the highest praise, and all are worth giving a shot. Please let me know about broken links if you encounter them, and as usual, comments and thoughts are always appreciated. That's about it, just click on the title of this post to view my top 10 albums of 2012, after the break!

Bunny Gamer's Top 100 Albums of 2012. Part Four: 25-11.

Good news and bad news here guys. Good news is, my 2012 list is almost done! Bad news is, my mediafire account got suspended (hopefully temporarily) so at least for now, anything that I uploaded personally prior to this part of the list probably won't be working properly. I'm working on getting my account reinstated, but for now, if a link is broken, try searching on my good friend FILESTUBE.COM! It's a great site for finding downloads and the like. As always, besides that, please let me know if any downloads are broken and I'll do what I can until my account comes back, and please comment and let me know your thoughts and opinions regarding the list. Click on the title there to see part four of my 2012 albums of the year list, after the break!

Bunny Gamer's Top 100 Albums of 2012. Part Three: 50-26.

My list is finally more than halfway done, and the good news is that the last two parts are fast on their way! But first, we've got part three, and this is probably the part that caused me the most trouble, as the list is starting to get to a point where they're all albums I genuinely think are top 25 or even top 10 material, but I can still only have 25 albums in my top 25. Anyway, without any more blabbering, here's part three of the list, click the title of this post to see it after the break, and as always, please let me know thoughts, surprises, opinions, and give me a shout if a link is broken that you need, as you know, links get taken down swiftly these days. Thanks!

Bunny Gamer's Top 100 Albums of 2012. Part Two: 75-51.

Part two is finally here! I know these come slower than a lot of you (and myself) would like, but unfortunately I'm just doing all this by myself, so it goes as quickly as it can. Anyway, as always, here's the next 25 of my top albums from 2012, the links are as stable as I could get them but please do let me know if one is broken and you can't find it elsewhere and I'll do my best to provide you with another working link. Comments, thoughts, and opinions are well appreciated, so lemme know what you think, and go ahead and click the title of this article to see the full list, after the break!
