Yeah, I know what you mean, but this album is just so complete, flows so well from track to track, plus "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" just has a lot of personal stuff for me. And with lines like, "On the night you left I came over/ And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders/ Our brand new coats so flushed and pink/ And I knew your heart I couldn't win." Ben develops so much with each passing album, and the music gets catchier and more intimate as well.

68. Cap'n Jazz "Analphabetapolothology"
Cap'n Jazz is frighteningly amateur, but in the best possible way. Tim Kinsella's kicked in the crotch scream coupled with raw and uncoordinated post-emo backing instruments. They're noisy, loud and fun and you can't help but smile when hearing they're take on the 80s classic Take On Me, silly choruses and kitty cat filled breakdowns. Analphabetapolothology is often considered the most important post-emo release and whether or not you agree it's certainly the best. Favorite Song: Little League MySpace.com - Cap'n Jazz - SEBASTOPOL, California - Alternative / Indie - www.myspace.com/capnjazz 67. The Blood Brothers "March On Electric Children" My favorite Blood Brothers (RIP =( ) album and thats probably because I saw them perform a good deal of this live and was completely blown away. The energy and how loud it was, to me was unlike anything i'd ever seen at that point. Some of my favorite songs, Mr Electric Ocean, American Vultures, and Siamese Gun. Favorite Song:Mr. Electric Ocean MySpace.com - The Blood Brothers - SEATTLE - Other - www.myspace.com/thebloodbrothersband 66. The Polyphonic Spree "The Fragile Army" Scrubs got me into this band, so thats a cool fun fact for everyone. This is the only album I have by them and I like it, especially Running Away which is one of my favorite songs of 2007. At times they remind me of Arcade Fire other times the Flaming Lips (only slightly). It's kind of choiral indie-pop type stuff. Favorite Song: Running Away MySpace.com - The Polyphonic Spree - Dallas, Texas - Pop / Rock / Psychedelic - www.myspace.com/polyphonicspree 65. ...Of Sinking Ships "...Of Sinking Ships" A combination of post-rock and indie-folk, this album is a very laid back album and very short in comparison to most post-rock albums. The longest song being 6 and a half minutes, the average song being about five minutes. But if the songs were longer this album wouldn't be nearly as good as it is. A second is never wasted with Of Sinking Ships and it shows. Favorite Song: The Last Signal... MySpace.com - ...Of Sinking Ships - - Ambient - www.myspace.com/ofsinkingships |

64. Million Dead "Harmony No Harmony"
Million Dead were England's answer to At the Drive-In. Releasing two albums and a handful of EPs Million Dead had a short but prolific career breaking up in 2005 saying they'd "rather leave a good-looking corpse." Fronted by Frank Turner who idolizes Black Flag and was known for his intense vocal delivery going from melodic singing to something between rapping and screaming with bizarre political lyrical themes and imagery. Million Dead played post-hardcore ranging from a more soft style that can out of nowhere explode into a frenzy and sometimes was just a frenzy all the way through. Similar to Reuben, Hundred Reason and At the Drive-In. Harmony No Harmony was their final album and while it showed at times, a more softer side to the band they were certainly no less passionate. Some of my favorite tracks are: Living the Dream, Harmony No Harmony, Achilles Lung, After the Rush Hour, Carthego Est Delenda and To Whom It May Concern. Favorite Song: Living the Dream MySpace.com - Million Dead - - Alternative / Rock - www.myspace.com/amilliondead |
