Cleggy Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 1) Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues 2) Bon Iver - Bon Iver 3) PJ Harvey - Let England Shake 4) Florence + The Machine - Ceremonials 6) Radiohead - King of Limbs 7) Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto 8) Arctic Monkeys - Suck It and See 9) Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds 10) Kasabian - Velociraptor! That's my list. I honestly think that Mylo Xyloto wouldn't be in my top 10 if it was released any other year, I think that 2011 was a mediocre year for albums.

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 El Camino can't be counted though, because it wasn't released by Dec. 1st!

What a bullshit rule :mean: :P I'm still not changing my list though, El Camino is definitely my favorite thing released this year and it stays in spite :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bullshit rule :mean: :P I'm still not changing my list though, El Camino is definitely my favorite thing released this year and it stays in spite :lol: It means when the 2012 poll comes around people would have either forgotten about that album or not place it in the list as it's a 2011 album (which featured in quite a few "best of 2011" lists in magazines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
