Violet Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Awww, what a shame. I like Cults. :\ Oh well. Even if I agreed with you, it's still better than the new Kaiser Chiefs album. :sick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linlaarie Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Ewwww, Cults. Literally one of the worst albums I've heard this year. IMO Jeez, with all the utter shit records being published these days, I'm surprised there may be someone who thinks this is one of the worst! :D ( no offense intended ).

Violet Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 ^ I don't know everything on that list, but that looks pretty solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squareonefivesix Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 My top five of this year's albums so far: Seeds ~ Hey Rosetta! Late Morning Light ~ The See See Velociraptor! ~ Kasabian Poet & The Dreamer ~ Neville Skelly Suck It & See ~ Arctic Monkeys If I was going to do a top ten, I'd add Elbow, Frank Turner, The Sand Band, Miles Kane & Jonathan Wilson. I can't be arsed ranking them tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 "Seeds" is great. :wacky: I didn't care too much for "Suck It and See," though. I don't know; I like their earlier work better. I haven't listened to Kasabian's new LP yet, but I plan to very soon. Miles Kane was a pleasant surprise, and while BARB! wasn't as good as TSSK, it's still a nice Elbow album. Oh, and thanks for reminding me about Frank Turner. I've been meaning to look into him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I'm the other way round with the Arctic Monkeys, I've never been much of a fan of theirs, had two of the previous albums but only really liked the odd few songs. Then I heard Suck It & See, not expecting much from it, but ended up really enjoying it and playing it a hellova lot. One thing I didn't like about their older stuff is the vast amount of words Alex Turner tries to cram into every song, it's clever stuff but he overdoes it sometimes. SIAS is a bit lighter of the lyrics imo, so I think it works better. And yes, the Frank Turner LP is very good, he's another one that's good at lyrical wordplay :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Feist - Metals is really, really good. Is there a leak yet, or is it just the stream that's up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1-77 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Probably my three favourite this year are "Nine Types of Light" by TV on the Radio, "Helplessness Blues" by Fleet Foxes and "The Whole Love" by Wilco. It was the first Wilco album I've heard, and I loved it! I'll have to unearth their backlog now, which includes some classics! Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Plastic Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 "The Whole Love" by Wilco. It was the first Wilco album I've heard, and I loved it! I'll have to unearth their backlog now, which includes some classics! Can't wait! woah. make sure you listen to Kicking Television. They're an incredible live band.

para-para-parrotdies Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 This is different from the albums I usually recommend but pop fans should definitely check out Nicola Roberts' debut album, Cinderella's Eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admnistramation Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 The stream is up on her website, as well. Even if you don't listen to Feist or weren't a fan of her previous output, Metals is such a completely different direction and I cannot recommend it enough. http://www.listentofeist.com/metals/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
