Music For a Twelve Year Old Brother
Spinless:
Whenever Tommy says 'worst cover art ever', he totally means 'best cover art FUCKING ever'.
Make a mix. CDRs are CHEAP.
Don't try to cram too many 'great songs' into it. Just pick the most accessible songs by good bands.
ImRonBurgundy?:
The Aquabats! My sister is twelve, and she loves them. She also likes surf music.
Scandanavian War Machine:
Hollywood Rose

it's just inspired pop music which is very difficult not to like. worst cover art ever though.

I agree! I was listening to this album today and I felt the need to share it with my boyfriend, who has, shokingly enough as he is dating me, never heard them before. He unsurprisingly liked it. They really are hard not to like.
IronOxide:
Accuse me of working to hard on the "crafting" of a music nerd, but I think at 12 you should be stressing the classics. Get some Floyd, Zappa, XTC, the stuff that's important and formative.
If you want to just give him some hipster stuff, New Pornographers = Very Yes. Aquabats are also a good reccomentdation. Probably should steer away from anything too emmasculating like Iron & Wine and Sufjan Stevens. The Pillows could also possibly go over well and are fun to listen to.
