    Pearl Jam's Backspacer.

    The Felice Brothers' Yonder Is The Clock is great too. Quite enjoyed the Fever Ray record and the Friendly Fires album was a bit of a grower, though I still think it's a bit uneven.

    Been listening to ace old records from The Decemberists and The Smiths lately too.

    Elbow – Seldom Seen Kid

    His vocals are superb, saw them live at Sheffield supporting U2 (also great album – No Line On The Horizon) and they were brilliant. Cracking album and well recommended.

    I don't think i've bought a real stand out (New) album yet this year. I did really like the Cribs first 3, but i just am not getting it with 'Ignore the Ignorant'. I've been listening to Creedence Clearwater (I only really knew their famous stuff before now) and Dylan more than owt else really.

    +1 Massive Agressive! Love that album – such an experience live…

    But Crack The Skye by Mastodon is my album of the year so far. Properly epic.

    Some good choices so far but I would add.

    The Rifles – Great Escape
    12 Dirty Bullets – Downside of making a living
    Metallica – Death Magnetic (okay a little older, but sooo good)
    Florence and the machine – Lungs
    Joshua Radin – Simple times
    Shinedown – The sound of madness

    That should do it but just put on the new pearl jam album and that rocks a tad 😛

    There's several on here I would go with, although I've had them for more than six months; Flo and The Machine, Elbow, Doves, to those I'd add an album that I recently got hold of, having mislaid my original from '92, and that's Dark Star, Twenty Twenty Sound. Saw them a number of times, incredible band, very very loud, the drummer honestly could knock you breathless if you stood in front of him; used to use maraccas on the floor toms to get a 'bigger' sound! I'd add School of Seven Bells, Shearwater, Mumford And Sons (love these three), Cerys Matthews new one Don't Look Down, and several that have been around for a bit, Howling Bells' Radio Wars, The Low Anthem's Oh My God, Charly Darwin, Soul Savers' Broken, oh, and the Duckworth Lewis Method, and Inga Thomson's Shipwreck And Static. The Metric album mentioned above is very good, too, saw them touring it earlier this year; fabulous gig. Check out their earlier stuff.

    -1 La Roux. Squeeky sub retro 80's synth twaddle.

    Bianchi Boy do yourself a favour, get on Spotify and listen to some of the stuff you've just been recommended before you spend any of your hard earned on it.
