I cant stand Bloc Party or Arcade Fire.Interpol are alright

I can't stand Bloc Party or Interpol. Arcade Fire were deadly at first.

I'll say it again Arcade Fire = A really bad Dexys Midnight Runners.

 

[Cryptid]

I quite liked Turn On De Bright Lights. Everything else was shite. I no like Arcade Fire nor Bloc Party.

I forgot to add M83's Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts to my list. Possibly Thunder, Lightning, Strike by the Go! Team also. Other notables might be The Moon & Antartica by Modest Mouse and Ghosts of The Lost Highway by Sun Kil Moon.

It really grew on me - lots of amazing melody buried in there. Prob my favourite since Tri Repeate.

Cheers. Must put it back on. Tri Repeate was my favorite before then too.

Yeah I found that album a real grower too. Only really got into Draft after Untilted came out, and only got into Untilted after the last one came out so I'm kind of an album behind on those lads at the mo. Didn't get the hype for Untilted at all when it came out at first though

Peel Sessions - Galaxie 500 (2005). I think this the only other essential Galaxie 500 release, other than the three studio albums.
Espers II (2006).
Post War - M. Ward (2006). Decent album from M. Ward. Has 'Chinese Translation'.
Untrue - Burial (2007). Track 2 'Archangel' is awesome.

Alight Of Night - Crystal Stilts (2008).
Weird Era Cont - Deerhunter (2008). Not a big fan of Microcastles, but I really like this.
The Vodoun Effect - Orchestre Poly-Rythmo De Cotonou (2008).

Keep Your Eyes Ahead - The Helio Sequence (2008). Probably falls into the guilty pleasure category.

No. Because it's average at best. Of the two '00s AC/DC albums the other one is better.
