Regarding the EPs, I must say that 2012 has been an amazing year, better than the previous years. The present and the future of Celtic Punk can be found on this list. If your band is not on the Top 10, don't be unhappy. The quality was so high that it has been extremely difficult to rate all the recordings. Any Celtic punk fan should get ALL of the EPs on this list.
DISCLAIMER:
I have only taken into account the EPs/demos that I have got (promo copies to be reviewed and/or free downloads)
I guess that other interesting EPs have been released in 2012 or at the end of 2011. Unfortunately, I have not been able to evaluate them, since no promo copy was submitted :-(
