How the Christ you managed to put a top 20 in order RFUS I don't know, I always really struggle with these. Also get Tame Impala in your life, I reckon it would shoot straight in to your top 10 easily!

10) Ben Folds Five - The Sound of the Life of the Mind
9) Eugene McGuinness - The Invitation to the Voyage
8) Field Music - Plumb
7) Jake Bugg - Jake Bugg
6) The Shins - Port of Morrow

4) Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!
3) Grizzly Bear - Shields
2) Tame Impala - Lonerism
1) Of Monsters and Men - My Head is an Animal

Some good choices there Milks. I might be going to see Tame Impala in London in June, which is their only gig in the UK next year (so far).

I've got Field Music's album in FLAC but haven't listened to it yet. I might get on that today.

Only recently discovered Tame Impala but really enjoying 'Lonerism'. Sounds like how I imagine The Beatles would if locked inside a modern studio with an industrial amount of acid and told to make an album. So pretty damn good!

Ha. A very accurate assessment.

How to Dress Well - Total Loss, probably.

Chromatics - Kill for Love
Actress - R.I.P.
DeepChord Presents Echospace - Silent World

Gonna leave the last spot for the new My Bloody Valentine album which Kevin has promised us.
