It’s that time of the year when we sit back and reflect on the music that 2011 served up. The past 11 and a half months was flooded with great albums, making it extremely difficult for us to form a top 10 systematically. Our list wasn’t based on a lengthy selection criteria – rather, on the amount of times a record was blasted throughout acid stag HQ‘s speakers.
