(VINE VOICE)   
 
High Violet
1.  High Violet by The National
The list author says:
  "Lemonworld: Quite simply no other song released in 2010 has the same repeat play value as this highly addictive offering from The National. Lyrical brilliance and perfect delivery from Matt Berninger."

4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (77 customer reviews)

The Age Of Adz
2.  The Age Of Adz by Sufjan Stevens
The list author says:
  "Now that I'm Older: This song is the beating heart at the core of the otherwise emotionally evasive and somewhat slippery Age of Adz."
£7.00   Used & New from: £5.64
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (26 customer reviews)

Halcyon Digest
3.  Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
The list author says:
  "He Would Have Laughed: A perfect closing track to Halcyon Digest, a hypnotic and enigmatic headtrip in two parts."
£7.99   Used & New from: £6.54
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

We're Here Because We're Here
4.  We're Here Because We're Here by Anathema
The list author says:
  "A Simple Mistake: This atmospheric epic has to go down as one of my all time favourite Anathema songs. A stunning chorus."
£12.00   Used & New from: £7.92
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (27 customer reviews)

The Suburbs
5.  The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
The list author says:
  "Modern Man: The Fire discover the joys of understatement and gentle wit on this standout pop moment from the dauntingly lengthy 'The Suburbs'."
£5.60   Used & New from: £3.99
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (114 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Teen Dream
6.  Teen Dream by Beach House
The list author says:
  "Walk in the Park: Such an unconventional vocal but one that can't help but move me every time I hear it. The woozy backing is perfectly judged too."
£6.35   Used & New from: £4.19
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (20 customer reviews)

Admiral Fell Promises
7.  Admiral Fell Promises by Sun Kil Moon
The list author says:
  "The Leaning Tree: Three part masterclass from the irrepressible Mark Kozelek, the final section is jaw droppingly good."

4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

Before Today
8.  Before Today by Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti
The list author says:

4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (13 customer reviews)

Lucky Shiner
9.  Lucky Shiner by Gold Panda

£5.51   Used & New from: £4.83
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Does It Look Like I'm Here?

£8.99   Used & New from: £7.59
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

Black Noise [VINYL]
11.  Black Noise [VINYL] by Pantha du Prince
The list author says:
  "Stick to My Side: A great guest vocal from Noah Lennox just about squeaks this in front of rest of the tracks from one of the most consistent albums of the year, 'Black Noise'."
Used & New from: £49.95

Infinite arms
15.  Infinite arms by Band of Horses

Band Of Joy
17.  Band Of Joy by Robert Plant

4.1 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (66 customer reviews)

Swim
21.  Swim by Caribou

Down There
23.  Down There by Avey Tare
