Some Good Albums from 2004

A Listmania! list by "onbarton"
 
Louden Up Now
1.  Louden Up Now by !!!
The list author says:
  "'Disco pogo for punks in pumps' may have been beaten to death in 2004, but this is ace.  People keep on asking - what's so f*cking great about dancing?  How should I know?"
£11.53   Used & New from: £2.33
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Sonic Nurse
2.  Sonic Nurse by Sonic Youth
The list author says:
  "Their best album since Washing Machine. Adventurous but easily listenable, and it rocks. Saw them on the supporting tour and they're still more exciting and energetic than most new bands around today."
Used & New from: £4.88
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

If You Can't Beat 'Em, Bite 'Em
3.  If You Can't Beat 'Em, Bite 'Em by Weird War
The list author says:
  "Ian Svenonius and Michelle Mae on top, funk form with Jennifer Herrema also joining the party with a rap on the title track.  Not quite Make-Up, but still cool as f*ck."
£16.50   Used & New from: £4.16
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Dfa Compilation Vol.2
4.  Dfa Compilation Vol.2 by The DFA
The list author says:
  "James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem) and Tim Goldsworthy show everyone how intelligent punk-infused dance music should really be done.  And my god, should people take notice."
Used & New from: £3.88

Funeral [Us Import]
5.  Funeral [Us Import] by Arcade Fire
The list author says:
  "Excellent American Indie album, mainly cos it doesn't sound like so much whiny indie-pap being thrown across the pond at the moment (in both directions).  Tuneful, soulful and it rocks too."
Used & New from: £4.98
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (151 customer reviews)

I Com
6.  I Com by Miss Kittin
The list author says:
  "Varied but focused first 'own' album from the sexy french starlet. Could be lumped in with the Electroclash movement but deserves better than that. Same producer as Chicks on Speed (yes, that's good!)"
£14.33   Used & New from: £0.95
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Transmaniacon
7.  Transmaniacon by RTX
The list author says:
  "Herrema post-Royal Trux.  Still noodles and roames, but largely more basic structure and sound than the Trux, but sounding no worse off for it.  She does a great Cher impression on PB+J too.  Wicked."
£7.99   Used & New from: £3.77

They Were Wrong So We Drowned
8.  They Were Wrong So We Drowned by Liars
The list author says:
  "Wow, a modern concept album that works - leading NY post-punkers alternate POVs between witches and villagers in their take on the german folklore.  Loud, scary and absolutely brilliant."
£8.44   Used & New from: £1.88
3.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

This Island
9.  This Island by Le Tigre
The list author says:
  "Now this is just plain fun.  Original Riot Grrls show they still rock and can party at the same time.  TKO on the radio..."
Used & New from: £2.24
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Ten
10.  Ten by cLOUDDEAD
The list author says:
  "Unlike any Hip Hop I've ever heard with intriguing soundscapes and cut-up song structures.  Cerebal, but never pretentious, one to enjoy more with everyone listen as you discover another hidden nugget"
£11.17   Used & New from: £1.48
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

The Futureheads
11.  The Futureheads by Futureheads
The list author says:
  "A bit more obvious for the 2004 list, but it is very good.  The buzz-edged guitars will make you spill your warm beer while dancing.  Partly produced by Andy Gill of Gang of Four."
Used & New from: £0.03
3.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (39 customer reviews)

Studio One Dub [VINYL]
12.  Studio One Dub [VINYL] by Various Artists
The list author says:
  "Had to sneak in this quality Coxsone Dodd-produced dub compilation from SoulJazz.  Ain't talkin 'bout dub?  No sir, this IS dub."
£15.00   Used & New from: £8.79
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)
