It’s the end of the year, so we’re asking the Confabulators what their favorites of 2012 are. This week, they tell us what their favorite song and\/or album of 2012 was.<\/p>\n
Jason Arnett<\/a><\/p>\n If you look at my iPod, it’ll tell you that the soundtrack for The Dark Knight Rises<\/em> is tops for the year. I liked Fiona Apple’s new album but I haven’t listened to it enough to have a real opinion. As for songs, I’ve gotta admit that Adele’s Skyfall<\/em> theme was pretty damn cool.<\/p>\n Ted Boone<\/a><\/p>\n I haven’t bought a lot of music this year. Imagine Dragons’ Night Visions<\/em> as well as Milk Famous<\/em> by White Rabbits, I guess.<\/p>\n Sara Lundberg<\/a><\/p>\n I fell in love with the song “Little Talks” by Of Monsters and Men earlier this year. I went and bought their mp3 album, My Head is an Animal<\/em>,\u00a0 which I never do because I very rarely buy music anymore, but it was cheap, and I love just about every song on there. Also really loved most of the Black Key’s album El Camino<\/em>, my favorite song on there being “Gold on the Ceiling,” which is currently my ringtone.<\/p>\n Kevin Wohler<\/a><\/p>\n I’m not much for pop music these days. My satellite radio is usually tuned to an oldies station or Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville. That said, this year I “discovered” The Explorers Club, a band out of South Carolina. Their 2012 album Grand Hotel<\/em> is a throwback to the pop music of the 1960s. My favorite track on the album is “Grand Hotel\/Go For You.”<\/p>\n Christie Holland<\/a><\/p>\n Theatre is Evil<\/em> by Amanda Palmer & The Grand Theft Orchestra. There’s not a song on that album I don’t love.<\/p>\n
