Because I am bored I have decided to do a month by month list...
JANUARY 2011
Iron & Wine - Kiss Each Other Clean ; Amazing, just love this guy. If you're looking to chill out, this is perfect
Chase & Status - No More Idols ; Loved this, and so many big hits have come from it too.
FEBRUARY
Just kidding...
Patrick Stump - Truant Wave ; Mainly because I am such a big Fall Out Boy fan... It's different to FOB but I still like this EP
Rev Theory - Justice ; Play LOUD. Metal lovers will enjoy.
MARCH
Noah and The Whale - Last Night on Earth ; Great Band, still listening to this a few months on. Track 3 is a highlight for me, perfect for chilling out.
RISE AGAINST - ENDGAME ; A must have in my list, top 5 in my albums of this year easily. Here's a reason why ;
Rise Against - Make It Stop (September's Children)
Green Day - Awesome as F**k ; Not as good as Bullet in a Bible in my opinion however defo a good album any Green Day fan should listen too.
PANIC AT THE DISCO - VICES AND VIRTUES ; Such a quality album, could listen to nothing but this for a month. Important you listen from start to finish, makes it better.
APRIL
Foo Fighters - Wasting Light ; Classic Foo's. Still can't quite topple The Colour and The Shape in my eyes (or ears) but a great album nonetheless
TV on The Radio - 9 Types Of Light ; If you have not listened to these guys before, do so now. Genuinely beautiful album, a must have in my eyes.
TV On The Radio - Will Do
GORILLAZ - THE FALL ; I LOVE The Gorillaz so I may be biased but their music is unlike anyone else. Albarn is a genius.
MAY
Foster the People - Torches ; One of the biggest bands this year. 2 songs stand out, Pumped up Kids and Life on the Nikel which I expect to be released soon.
MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA - SIMPLE MATH ; Should be more famous than they are. Andy Hull has the best voice in the business today. Here's a quick glipse. Top 5 albums of the year for me.
Manchester Orchestra - Pensacola Off of Simple MathJUNE
Frank Turner - Keep England in my Bones ; Not his best album, however if you don't know who Frank Turner is you can thank me later. He is one of my favourite artists. See "Love Ire and Song" for his best work
City & Colour - Little Hell ; Wonderful, always a easy listening band with Dallas Green's amazing voice. Don't see how anyone couldn't enjoy the sound of this.
BON IVER - BON IVER ; Brace yourself if you have not listened to this yet. It is quite frankly brilliant, you get lost in the album and want more when it's over.
JULYNothing of note
AUGUST
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - I'm With You ; Welcome back! Such a long wait. Was it as good as Stadium Arcadium... Don't think anyone expected it to be, but at least the band is back together with Josh instead of John (dare I say he's a better guitarist)
SEPTEMBER
Switchfoot - Vice Verses ; Solid album, nothing to tell the grandkids about... and then it grows on you. Watch out.
OCTOBER
COLDPLAY - MYLO XYLOTO; Another top 5 of the year for me. Best album they've released in my opinion. Paradise is still stuck in my head as is this beauty
Coldplay - Charlie BrownAnd that album was last I've listened too chronologically... Well hope you liked that, there's an album there for everyone. That killed some time. Excellent.
