I'll comment on your albums of this week.

I have 12 out of your top 20, including all of your Top 4. The only one I don't know out of your list is Air Traffic, and I've kind of avoided the new Fratellis one for the moment - I wasn't keen on the first single.

Thanks for commenting Smurfie.

My Album chart is going to slow down this month. There are not alot of albums I want to get this month. Should pick up again in September.

I really like the Fratellis's album. It's different from Costello Music but still just as good. Mistress Mable did OK on my chart, peaking at #5.

Air traffic IMO are a young Coldplay. Their album is defiantly the most underrated album of last year IMO. Here is my favorite song of theirs, Shooting star.
