Its that time of year....

... For the albums of the year

so here is my unranked top 5/6 take note if you want:

Xiu Xiu - Women As Lovers (Kill Rock Stars)
The sharp attention grabbing sounds underneath Stewarts soft sounding vocals
Favourite Track - No Friend Oh!

Sigur Rós - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust (XL / EMI)
A more pop sounding record happy uplifting but still epic songs
Favourite Track - Inní mér syngur vitleysingur

Los Campesinos! - Hold On Now, Youngster... / We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed (Wichita)
Yes i do realise that i have grouped two albums here but alas i can not decide which i prefer both brilliantly catchy pop songs
Favourite Track - Knee Deep At ATP (HON,Y...) / Ways To Make It Through The Wall (WAB, WAD)

Venus Bogardus - Tourist (Pretty Mouth Records)
Sonic Youth- esque beauty
Favourite Track - New Glam Underground

Shrag - Shrag (Where It's At Is Where You Are)
I know its just a compliation of their singles with a few added tracks but still its all on 1 CD now!
Favourite Track - Pregnancy Scene
