2. Animal Collective: 'Merriweather Post Pavillion' (Domino) - From the very start; building minimal acoustic pop and keeping to the notion of abstraction, to now; releasing full-blown pop music, Animal Collective have done nothing but grow. Their sound has developed like only a fortune-teller could see coming, their status has morphed from cult heroes to mass opinion-dividers. Those aware of 'Merriweather Post Pavilion' either feel betrayed by it, disgusted by it or more suitably, feel that the golden age of Avey Tare and co. has just arrived. A work of staggering brilliance. (Jamie Milton)

- 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.
