May 27: Anchondo - Rookies of the Year 

Anchondo are a ska-punk band from Nebraska. I got this when they blew through Stillwater about a year ago on their way to SXSW and needed a fill-in gig, so they opened for 12p at Skinny's. Only the power blew twice during soundcheck, and nobody played Skinny's that night. Most of this sounds like an unholy marriage between Sublime and 311, but "And She" is a candidate for Pop/Rock Song of the Year. It's brilliant; one of my Top 20 of all-time, no joke.
