So we're just gonna let Blake get away with saying there have been 117 (one hundred and seventeen) albums released this year that were better than "Daytona"?
Haven't had much time to listen to new music this year (last year of high school/first year of college stuff), but Foxing's new album, Nearer My God is currently my favorite album of the year.
You mean, the same guy who just rated Post Traumatic as "okay" ? MY OPINION IS THE RIGHT ONE!!!!!1111
