My list is now up to 22 albums and there are still heaps I haven't listened to. Anyone want to recomend albums that aren't on the list that should be.

Florence and the Machine - Lungs

 

this could change..

Added. :smiley:

You can edit it as often as you like right up until the deadline on December 6th.

^Is that album good? I have one of their songs on my computer from an iTunes sample. The album cover turned me off haha.

^So good. :nice:

 

I ran out and bought the cd a bit ago after having "Rabbit Heart" and "Dog Days" stuck in my head for a week straight (in a good way for the most part- there's always something stuck in my head). There's lots of big, soaring songs with sort of an English folk music undercurrent to them and then some totally different stuff. She has a huge, huge voice; I love it when people like that do something interesting musically rather than just trying to be the next Amy Winehouse. It's imperfect as an album- there's a couple of songs I really don't like and usually skip, but that hasn't stopped me from listening to it constantly ever since I got it.

 

Heh... I love the cover- it sort of describes the style of the music really well- although if you've only heard "kiss with a fist" (That was the iTunes song, right?) I can see why it would be confusing- that song was a one-off. Listen to Rabbit Heart for a better idea of what they sound like.

Rabbit Heart is the song I have. I'll listen again, see if it does anything for me.

Florence and the Machine - Lungs

 

 

looks like ive got a busy month ahead of me.

In that case listen to Dog Days, Kiss With a Fist, and Cosmic Love then. They have quite a range.

I hear you. My "to listen" list is much longer than my actual list...not sure I'll get through it. :thinking: Especially when I come across albums like "Lungs" that I can't stop listening to...

1. Stars of Track and Field - A Time for Lions :)

2. Metric - Fantasies

3. Say Hi (To Your Mom) - Oohs & Aahs

4. Lily Allen - It's Not Me, It's You

5. Pearl Jam - Backspacer

I would highly recommend people to listen to the new OneRepublic album "Waking Up"

i m going to listen to the new stereophonics "keep calm and carry on" soon when the download s finnished :smug:

P.S. I think we should ustream the countdown results. Basically somebody with a webcam could do a live broadcast easily and announce the results.

 

(and yes I am volunteering myself if people think this would be a fun way of doing it)

 

Yeah, it works... I'll think about it.

 

Okay, I've thought about it. I'm in. What exactly did you have in mind/are you up for?

 

Stars of Track and Field[/url] - A Time for Lions :)

2. Metric - Fantasies

3. Say Hi (To Your Mom) - Oohs & Aahs

4. Lily Allen - It's Not Me, It's You

5. Pearl Jam - Backspacer

Quick question...

 

 

This Is For The White In Your Eyes by Choir Of Young Believers

 

I'd like to include the above album in my list; international release was Oct 09 but I believe it had a Danish release last year... :confused:

 

Would my vote be valid..?

Updated my list :nice:

They were great supporting Mew ;)

Damn right.... so great I bought the album ;)

^Well I'm still looking, but I can't find anything about an earlier release date. Chances are, anything useful is in Danish. :tongue: I'm inclined to allow it based on the international release simply on account of I can't be arsed. Well...and I'm pretty sure no one voted for it last year. ;)

can't wait to have some time and check everyone's lists, last year I found great new music there :nice:

^I'm compiling a temporary list of eligible albums that have been mentioned so far. (Saves time at the end.)

 

It's very long and very good. I'm going to post it this year as soon as I find a bit of time to get it finished.
