If I'm honest I'm struggling this year,one i have been playing a lot is

White Lies ..To lose my Life

eL-ZilCHo! · 30-10-2009, 4:22 PM

Poison the Well - The Tropic Rot for me so far... I think.

Theres been loads of decent albums this year for me, so I may change my mind by the time the year ends.

Jamie T's -Kings & Queens,

Have to vote for

Bombay Bicycle Club - I had the blues, but I shook them loose

+1 for White Lies also.

Semiskimmed1976 · 01-11-2009, 7:29 PM

Wild Beasts or Gurrumul - both different, but they hit the spot for me!

Would be one of my choices as well, love the analogue synth sounds on the album, some more I like from this year are:

To Be Still - Alela Diane
Notes from the Treehouse - Alessi's Ark
Backspacer - Pearl Jam
Th Liberty of Norton Folgate - Madness

but album of the year so far, for me is The Duckworth Lewis Method by The Duckworth Lewis Method

Well, unless it's delayed it should come this year.

One of the most important releases in the history of recorded music:

Not Fade Away: The Complete Studio Recordings And More: Buddy Holly: Amazon.co.uk: Music

ha ha yeah just noticed that

evangelink · 09-11-2009, 10:41 PM

Hmmmm, difficult to pin this down but I'm gonna agree with an earlier post and say-
it's Blitz - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

some really great albums this year for me though. Patrick Wolf, Big Pink, Florence and the Machine, and some great electronica like Clubroot.

Dan81 · 09-11-2009, 11:02 PM

John Frusciante - The Empyrean
The mind-expanding, guitar genius takes us off into space, it's just amazing!

Fontan - Winterhwila
Psychadelic, electronic wonder. Like Pink Floyd went to Ibiza...also 2009's best use of stereo effects.

Muse - The Resistance
I started off thinking they'd got it seriously wrong but with repeated listens have come to realise it's their most excessive, spectacular album to date.

Manic Street Preachers - Journal for Plague Lovers
The album we all wanted the manics to make but didn't know it.

JohnG · 10-11-2009, 7:47 AM

I'm struggling to think of an album I've bought this year that was actually produced in 2009. Nothing has taken my fancy so far.

** Verve ** · 10-11-2009, 10:40 AM

Just thought of another great album:

Noah and the Whale - The first days of spring

Not everyone's cup of tea, but its a cracking album

decanay · 22-11-2009, 4:23 PM

Liking the new Ian Brown Album - My Way.

yorush · 22-11-2009, 6:11 PM

Had to look through WMP to search through "2009" XD

I quite liked BEP new album, Rob Thomas OneRepublic, Killers, Keri Hilson, and Shakira.

But best would be Rob Thomas's Cradlesong.

MONKEY_MAN · 25-11-2009, 11:20 PM

Depechemode

Lateralus · 26-11-2009, 3:06 PM

Porcupine Tree gets my vote everytime

english_bob · 01-12-2009, 2:25 PM

Toss up between Charlotte Hatherley's "New Worlds" and Arctic Monkeys "Humbug"

deadtotheworld · 01-12-2009, 5:55 PM

Paradise Lost: Faith divides us - Death unites us.
Dream Theater: Black clouds and silver linings.
