    Not getting The Drums at all, i can't say i like anything i've heard from them so far.

    The Delphic album is ok, better than The Drums sound but to be honest if 2010 is to be known for bands like this i won't be paying attention much.

    Sleigh Bells, Midlake and Owen Pallet will all make bigger impacts this year than previously. Liars, Frank Black, Massive Attack and Spoon will release great albums. Really though I think 2010 will be the year of Yeasayer. They'll have a great year, the album is coming out, its going to get great reviews and it'll go huge. In an indie kind of way.

    Beach House will deserve the same amount of acclaim, but its less likely they'll get it on that semi-mainstream level.

    Four Tet and Joy Orbison will continue making great music in the whole left-field electronica sphere. And it will be beautiful, I'm dying for those two albums.

    I thought Pixies were releasing new material. Is Frank Black gone solo again?

    He has an album due at some point, can't remember if there's a set date or not. The man is a music making behemoth, I'm sure he could manage new Pixies stuff as well as solo stuff at the same time. I'm eagerly anticipating both anyway.

    I like Phantogram but i doubt they'll be very big. 'When im Small' has been stuck in my head for weeks. I urge everyone to take a listen.

    I can see the Villagers doing very well here and perhaps making small waves in the uk and the us. They're on a fantastic label and they (or is it just conor?) have fantastic, emotive songs. Nothings stopping them from having a great year

    Hopefully Halves debut album is as good as i expect it to be (very!).

    Good bit of buzz surrounding Dinosaur Pile-up. If they do actually get around to releasing an album it could be their year.

    +1

    Recording album at the mo.

    Think they might be coming back in March to play

    Bands that will hit it will prob be Delphic, Mike Snow, Surfer Blood, Two Door CC, Dutch Uncles, Local Natives, The Minutes

    + 1 for Villagers

    The Hollow Kind EP was fantastic; if Conor continues with that kind of quality, the album could be the best Irish offering of the year methinks, and, possibly, of the last few years.

    Also Beach House; seriously looking forward to that album.

    I was just mentioning Interpol because I'm looking forward to a new album, but more importanly an improvement on the last album which dissapointed me.
