5. Yeah Yeah Yeahs: 'It's Blitz' (Interscope) - After the glitter punk thrash of their debut album and the experimental sounds of its follow up, Karen O and co. took the natural progression on album number three and went all out disco pop. From the opening call to arms double bill of �Zero� and �Heads Will Roll� this album sees spirits high in the Yeah Yeah Yeah�s camp and as usual there is a battle between the distorted fuzz of Nick Zinner�s guitar and Karen O�s charismatic onslaught resulting in a double K.O. If at first it�s the fist pumping anthems that grab you then it�s the slower and more delicate moments that will have you coming back to �It�s Blitz!� with �Hysteric� and �Runaway� rivalling anything the group have done before for elegance and poise.

- 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.
