Our Love to Admire
22.  Our Love to Admire by Interpol
The list author says:

Making Dens
24.  Making Dens by Mystery Jets
The list author says:
  "*Limewired* Mystery Jets are a thoroughly lovable band, but then I love quirkiness. You Can't Fool Me Dennis is not only a brilliant title, but also a brilliant song, as is Diamonds.. Nicely different"

A Weekend in the City
25.  A Weekend in the City by Bloc Party
The list author says:
  "I thought I'd tie off the list with some more Bloc Party. This album is darker, more mature and perhaps prefered to their debut... I love every song. Amazing Band."
