I already expect much rolling of eyes and comments that these are too mainstream, but this is what I listen to, so for what it's worth...
I haven't listened to all that many new albums this year, and some of those I have listened to have been good but not great, and some have been downright awful. All I can muster is a paltry top five, and here they are, make of them what you will. 5. Bruce Springsteen --- Wrecking ball (The Boss still has it!) 4. Hawkwind --- Onwards (almost half a century later, Hawkwind can still deliver the goods) 3. Fadeout --- To protect our way of living (Absolute find of the year) 2. Joseph Arthur --- Redemption City (A real candidate for album of the year, even at this midway point, but just beaten out by....) 1. Half Moon Run --- Dark eyes (Debut from a Canadian band you can expect to be hearing a lot more from!)

Well this Japandroids album is actually really good. Didn't bother with it at first but I'm listenign right now and it delivers a great energy rush. The Money Store is still my favorite album from this year but this one is still awesome.

Yeah it's brilliant, isn't it? I'll be reviewing the full album ("Sing along songs for the damned and delerious") in my journal soon. Meantime, they have a new one out this month folks!
