They may have only done a top 20 but they have included some interesting and classic choices including Arctic Monkeys' Mercury nominated AM clocking in at No.4 whilst Savages' Silence Yourself proves to be the top choice.
According to owner Phil Barton and staff member Steve Sexton: "The Savages is a cracking album that bears no comparison with anything else released this year. Their album harnesses the best post-punk visceral, taut dynamic power with a marvellous devil-may-care sonic attack."
