21. Dirty Projectors: 'Bitte Orca' (Domino) – Ban lynchpin Dave Longstreth might be a lightning-fingered guitar virtuoso with the same distaste for time signatures and song structure as a vegetarian might have for a steak sandwich, but he still likes a damned good melody - and Bitte Orca is chock full of them. From the down and dirty funk of Stillness Is The Move, to the beautiful poignancy of Two Doves, with the likes of Temecula Sunrise shining in between, Bitte Orca is proof that technical genius needn’t equal yawn-inducing fret wankery.

- Moderat, Memory Tapes and Vitalic?!! Great list for including those alone
- The Blueprint 3? That is one rubbish album. Shame that Jay Z hasn't made a good album for 8 years.
- Tune-Yards should have been on this list.
- Gotta be the best album list I've read so far!
- bunch of marginally talented hipster douches ruined this list.
YYY and Muse are the only ones worth buying.
