Album of the Year...

I don't listen to mainstream music really, like any of the stuff that will actually win album of the year...

But in my opinion? My favorite album of the year off the too if my head would have to be Young The GIant's self titled album.

Can't post a link on my phone right now, but if you're into alternative music, the whole album is really great.

I have two choices for me, personally, though most of you have probably never heard of either. They are Parkway Drive's "Atlas" and Hurt's "The Crux". From start to finish, both albums are flat out amazing to me. Parkway Drive delivers it's best album yet (which is saying something considering how good Horizons was) and Hurt, to me, delivers their 2nd best (Vol. II was such an amazing album that it is hard to top), but it is a VERY close 2nd.

Just to add, neither of these stand a chance at a mainstream award, but Parkway Drive could easily win some metal awards with this album (though, bands like BMTH and Black Veil Brides will SOMEHOW win most of them because the metal scene today is 13 year old emo kids).

I would post both, but only Parkway Drive has a full stream of the entire album on youtube (and it's Epitaph's official account, so don't feel guilty listening to it for free....like you would anyway, ya pirates).

    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
    • Theilen is about to retire. I dont care about him sticking around. Lets say you did and he retires at the end of the year. Now that connection is gone next year and it's just another excuse for regression that was just held off. 
    • Short term is the key point. Those first two games without him where pretty bad. They still aren't back to where they were offensively but they are getting better. Hopefully Tet continues to improve and Coker eventually returns - and stays healthy.
