I agree, the Killers album is great. They're playing 5 minutes walk from my house next month but I couldn;t get tickets. May wander up to price the touts on the night.

Two other good recent purchases were Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's first album ("Love Burns" is just the greatest song ever ever ever) and Mark Lanegan's "Field Songs."

The Pixies - Live at Brixton Academy (Disclive numbered CD's). There's 4 of them from the 2nd - 5th June so these will have to be the top 4! The 3rd June was the best actual gig but I was at the other 3 so they're 'special'.

Ultramagnetic MCs - Critical Beatdown (Remastered, with extra tracks)

Truly an underrated hip-hop classic, and now it sounds even better.

Muse - Absolution
and
Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News

These two are by far and away the best two albums of the year.

the latest modest mouse kicks ass! also maria schneider's new record "concert in the garden".

Absolution is a fantastic album, I also enjoyed Franz Ferdinand.

Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News is great. I also got The Shins latest album recently and is incredible.

The new Modest Mouse is fantastic and so is the new Shins.
