This one is another entry from the start of 2012 — and it's a Nashville band to boot.

A tribute to the late Vic Chesnutt, Mr. M's a melancholy affair that haunts, long after the strings come in and out.
Alt - J - An Awesome Wave
It's no surprise that England's 2012 Mercury Prize winner is a fascinating album that never bores. What is shocking is that this shimmering "folkstep" debut got picked up by a US major label and is actually being promoted.
Warning: the following video is considered highly unsettling by many.
