19. Jamie T: 'Kings and Queens' (Virgin) � It wasn�t mentioned much at the time but there must have been a great deal of pressure on Jamie T to follow up his superb debut �Panic Prevention�. Any signs of nerves or tension didn�t show one single bit, however, as with a swig of his brew Jamie hit the ball out of the court on �Kings & Queens� showing his unique flow, spirit and precocious talent. This album has a real communal brothers in arms feel as swaying sing alongs like �The Man�s Machine� line up alongside frantic skittering sugar rush tunes like �Chaka Demus� and �Sticks �N� Stones�. We await his third effort eagerly. (David Renshaw)

- Moderat, Memory Tapes and Vitalic?!! Great list for including those alone

- The Blueprint 3? That is one rubbish album. Shame that Jay Z hasn't made a good album for 8 years.

- Tune-Yards should have been on this list.

- Gotta be the best album list I've read so far!

- bunch of marginally talented hipster douches ruined this list.
YYY and Muse are the only ones worth buying.
