    And the winner is.... (i think)

    Phoenix.


    Well done you french electro rockers ! More of the same please...


  • Registered Users Posts: 530 ✭✭✭Placid_Casual


    Wow, that's a bit of surprise I think. Can't remember this album being particularly acclaimed or featuring in many end of year polls. I haven't even heard it, just the single Listomania, which didn't do a whole lot for me.

    It goes on the increasingly long list of stuff I need to check out.

    Is there a boards top 10 or anything like that?

    Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion
    The Antlers - Hospice
    I am surprised that these didn't win. The hipsters went wild for em. Hospice was good though, MPP was just more overhyped drivel.
