 | Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not by Arctic Monkeys
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $5.95 These guys have a great energy. Great for the car. Brits.
|
 | Six Demon Bag by Man Man
Buy new: $14.99 I originally only played the promo of this CD because of it's album title (movie reference), but now I can say that I would have kicked myself if I hadn't played it that day. If you like that gogol bordello or firewater sound then this might be just perfect for you. Lots of influances.

 | The Audience's Listening by Cut Chemist
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $4.45 I can't believe this didn't make it on more people's lists! This is a great album. Jurassic 5 may have fouled up their new album, but cut chemist hit the nail on the head. This album is lots of fun and very addictive.

 | Black Holes and Revelations by Muse
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $5.84 I know. I know. I'm a trendy b****, but this album has a great feel to it. Also great for driving.

|
 | Stella by Uzeda
Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $4.40 Saw them live in Chicago. I was really impressed. Shellac fans look no further. Nice aluminum guitar sound. A great comeback album from a lesser known band.
|
 | Return to Cookie Mountain (with Bonus Tracks) by TV on the Radio
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $2.00 What can I say about them. They mix the sounds of so many bands that I really liked when I was growing up and they do it well.
|
 | The Spell by The Black Heart Procession
Buy new: $15.98 / Used from: $5.52 San Diego Band. They're great. No one really sounds guite like them. They make you want to slit your wrists without sounding like another shi**y emo band. Great indy music.

|
 | Damaged by Lambchop
Buy new: $15.98 / Used from: $3.99 This band somehow gets overlooked and it's just too bad. A great album for them.

 | Sound Mirrors by Coldcut
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $3.89 I don't like all the tracks I admit. But I liked the ones I did enough to put it on this list.

Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $8.99 Come now! The melvins. New album. TWO drummers on this album!
|
