Agree re Killers - Hot Fuss was very good, Sams Town was vastly inferior but had it's moments but since then they have just vanished up their own arses and produced utter shoite, shame.

Of course music is all about personal taste, but I've more respect for someone who admits to listening to stuff not deemed 'cool' because that just happens to float their boat. So few 'mainstream' acts get mentioned on these threads it is laughable. They can't all be mature students and virgins who embrace all the crap spouted in the NME.

say what ya like about the killers, but hot fuss was a great album, i do agree their albums have declined in quality, like so many bands i guess.

HRH - Its far more 'fun' to listen to stuff late at night (as I used to sans wifey and kid) and 'discover it'. Not anyones fault it becomes more well-known. In the last three years I have only gone balistic about two songs, 'What you could have won' by MIlburn, and Commercial Breakdown by Sunshine Underground. They ae really the only two bands that have excited me throughout that period and continue to do so with any back-catalogue and future projects (such as Backhanded Compliments or The Book Club). I cannot help that

CUPRA - wasn't having a pop at you, apologies if it came across that way! Just a general observation of this forum and beyond that a lot of bandwagons seem to get jumped on to the extent of being unbelievably oversubscribed.

The first Editors & the two Interpol albums were good too, despite them being unashamed Joy Division copyists. The same applies, to a lesser degree, to The White Lies album. The first Franz Ferdinand album was excellent - and the last Blur one (Think Tank).

shame about ray; thought Dreamt for Lightyears in the Belly of a Mountain was best by Sparkelhorse.

For me Illinois by Sufjan Stevens was the best album of the last ten years.

Catford - 2 great choices, Vivadixie... every track on the album, to me, are class. Considering its their debut as well. Only The Stone Roses have done a better debut (best album ever)

Agreed - Illinois is a complete one-off, unlike anything I had heard before. The first time I listened to it all the way through left me gobsmacked

Just thinking the same thing, your highness. I cannot decide though whether to go to the pub and risk life and limb, pavements like skating rinks, or stay in and drink.
