Next we have The Xcerts. "Nightschool" is one of the best songs I've heard all year.... as I told Mr. Toad! To be honest I completely forgot about Colin MacIntyre when I was making up my Top 20! Apologies Colin!
And last but not least there's the latest from French indie-poppers Phoenix!

Sparrow And The Workshop - Sleight Of Hand/Into The Wild
Last Chance

The Xcerts - In the Cold Wind We Smile
Nightschool

Colin MacIntyre - Island
The Edge Of Nearly

Phoenix - Wolfgamg Amadeus Phoenix
Lisztomania
Only £5 in Fopp!
Island is a good album, but for me got lost in the shuffle, since it came out around the same time as a bunch of other stuff.
ReplyDeleteBoth the Sparrow & The Workshop releases were brilliant, but I'm inclined to count them as EPs rather than albums, which means they are left off my list.
Yeah same for me! But I reckon 2 EPs = 1 album.
ReplyDeleteAs for Phoenix, listening to it again its probably up there with the albums in my 15 to 20.
