Favourite band ever!
This would be my list:
01. Disintegration
02. Boys Don't Cry (aka Three Imaginary Boys)
03. Pornography
04. Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me
05. Head on the Door
06. Seventeen Seconds
07. Faith
08. The Top
09. Wish
-When things get much worse-
10. Bloodflowers
11. Wild Mood Swings
12. The Cure
13. 4:13 Dream
And if I were to add their "Japanese Whispers" compilation it would be in 5th place.
I remember watching The Wedge on Much Music when I was 15 and "Lover I Don't Have to Love" came on and I thought the video was shit, but the song remained in my head. Still my favourite Bright Eyes and still one of my favourite albums.
I couldn't watch more than 1 minute of that Karmin performance.
The Burial EP was an extremely delightful surprise. Never thought I would enjoy it as much as I do.
She was my favourite rising artist last year and now she makes me happy releasing such a great album. Hopefully her being on a M83 track will get her more noticed. And if I must add "In Your Nature" is by far the album's jam.
One overlooked artist for the past two years has been Tesla Boy. I'm not sure how they're doing in Europe, but they haven't made any splash in North America so far.
I'm excited about Lady Gaga. As for The Avalanches, I agree with everyone else, I'll believe it when I see it. Also yay for Jens Lekman, M83, The Wrens, Patrick Wolf, Deerhoof, Tennis, Burial (should have been on the other list!), The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, The Go! Team, The Strokes and Radiohead.
