10. Stereolab - Kyberneticka Babicka Chart debut.
9. Subways - With You 2nd appearance in chart. PEAK
8. Robert Post - Got None Chart debut.
7. Beck - Girl 8th appearance in chart. PEAK Previous best: Sexxlaws (#9 in 1999)
6. M83 - Don't Save Us From The Flames Chart debut.
5. Arcade Fire - Cold Wind 4th appearance in chart. PEAK
4. Idlewild - Love Steals Us From Loneliness 9th appearance in chart. EQUALS PEAK Previous best: Little Discourage (#4 in 1999)
3. Maximo Park - Apply Some Pressure 4th appearance in chart. PEAK Previous best: The Coast Is Always Changing (#18 in 2004)
2. Viva Voce - Alive With Pleasure 2nd appearance in chart. PEAK
And this year's number one is...
1. SUBWAYS - ROCK & ROLL QUEEN
Simple? Yes. Effective? You bet your ass it is. There's been a bit of snobbery surrounding this lot. They might not be particularly original. They're not going to change the world but they make some cracking tunes and given the fact the lead singer and bass player got engaged this year, their album has turned out to be a somewhat personal record. I'm sure there are a number of people here who can relate to being young and in love and knowing your whole life is ahead of you. To be 19 again...
