Yeah, I thought 'A-Punk' was catchy, but their other two singles were awful. There was nothing to 'Oxford Comma' or that Cape Cod one for me.

2. The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
3. The Presets - Apocalypso
4. Portishead – Third
5. Sigur Ros - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust

I haven't really kept up with this year much, there's still so many releases I have to check out, but:

1. Opeth - Watershed
2. The Mars Volta - The Bedlam In Goliath
3. Cancer Bats - Hail Destroyer
4. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
5. Underoath - Lost In The Sound Of Separation

Subject to change.

Possibly incorrect mp3 tagging or a dodgy download? For this reason, I thought A Day in the Life was a song on Revolver for the longest time.

Strange!
