6. Keane - Under The Iron Sea

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/PRERELCDKEANE1.JPG

 

Best Single: Nothing In My Way

Best Album Track: Atlantic

 

^ Nothing In My Way Video

 

The follow up to the mega selling Hopes and Fears, I guess this was destined to be a disappointment even before it was released. It's actually a really good album, with tracks like Atlantic, The Frog Prince, Nothing In My Way and Broken Toy making it all worth it. Crystal Ball and Is It Any Wonder are still pants though :lol:

5. Embrace - This New Day

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/ISOM60CD.JPG

 

Best Single: Target

Best Album Track: Exploding Machines

 

^ Target Video

 

In a word, athemic! This epic album from Embrace showcases their widescren indie style perfectly. Exploding Machines is such a good album track, and the whole album is in the same groove. Luckily, that awful football song isn't on the album.

 

 

Kasabian - Empire - Another Band i was surprised i liked :o Very Good indeed ^_^

 

Keane - Under The Iron Sea - Great Band! :wub: This is still a great album, Atlantic and Bad Dream being my faves, but isnt a patch on Hopes And Fears Still.

 

Embrace - This New Day - I really dont like Embrace :(. I Thought nature's Law was ok, but apart from that i find them Dire :(

Best Single: Smiley Faces

Best Album Track: Just A Thought

 

^ Smiley Faces Video

 

A suprisingly good album from the vocal talents of Cee Lo and the knob twiddling of Danger Mouse.

3. Scissor Sisters - Ta Dah

Best Single: I Don't Feel Like Dancin'

Best Album Track: Lights

 

^ IDFLD Video

 

For a while, this was my favourite album of the year, but on closer listening, it was eventually pushed down to 3. An excellent follow up album, however, and more solid and consistent than their debut.

2. The Feeling - Twelve Stops And Home

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/THEFEELING.JPG

 

Best Single: Never Be Lonely

Best Album Track: Strange

 

^ Never Be Lonely (Charlotte Church Show)

 

The amazing debut album from the ELO tinged Feeling. All of their singles have peaked at #2 in my personal chart, and long runner and classic Never Be Lonely was the sound of summer for me.

 

 

Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere - I havent listened to this album :( i might get it sometime though because i loved Smiley Faces, and i admit i liked Crazy a little -_-

 

Scissor Sisters - Ta Dah - Great album, Lights, Kiss You Off, Shes The Man and I Dont Feel Like Dancing my faves, Great Album :wub:

The Feeling - Twelve Stops And Home - Love all their singles, love the album, and Strange is just :wub:

 

Great New Band, which arent indie too :o :wub:

1. Snow Patrol - Eyes Open

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/PRERELCDSNOWP.JPG

 

Best Single: Chasing Cars

Best Album Track: Make This Go On Forever

 

^ Set The Fire To The Third Bar Video

 

Completing the double for me, the biggest selling album of the year is also the best, imo. Containing the classic Chasing Cars, the beautiful Set The Fire To The Third Bar, and the sublime You're All I Have, this album won out by a long way.
