I enjoyed the above more than most, the Beach House and xx albums are pretty good too and I am even partial to the Calvin Harris album when I'm out running.

In agreement with you there John D and Exeter Rhino...

I had forgetten The xx album as well, belting effort which matches their first IMO

That was my problem with it - it matches their first album exactly. There's nothing new, no development. While that's fine to a certain extent, I wanted something else.

At least it's not offensively bad, like Alt-J

Van Halen.

Alt-J...christ

That's a good point about The xx as they have followed the same formula for the album (for me I like the 2nd more) but they are similar but at least they haven't fallen into the trap of the '2nd album syndrome' of a poor follow up

also just discovered The Lumineers and Frank Ocean's albums

very very good

The Lumineers is the next in line of singalongsong quasi folk drivel to be filed alongside Mumford and Sons as being just bland.

On the point of Mumford and Sons, Babel is one of the most tedious albums released this year. All very samey. Start slow, build, say "I will" and then end. Throw in a banjo and some waistcoats, hey you're rootsy folk. No, you're to music what beige is trousers.

Late Entries (aka I forgot)

Cate Le Bon - CYRK
Ben Kweller - Go Fly A Kite

Tygers of Pan Tang - Ambush

Great album. Old school heavy metal at its finest.

Can't believe I never had this in my initial list

The School - Reading Too Much Into Things Like Everything
