      There are a lot of great albums but even as a fan I struggle to see them being played in a decade.

      Foo Fighters have some awesome stuff, but most albums I listen to over and over are just before the turn of century - REM, Radiohead, Nirvana.

      Bizarrely since it's not my type of music, Mumford & Sons is the one recent album I simply do not get bored of and continue to discover new nuances. But I'm sure even that will fade.

      Adele's album is also pretty awesome, but for a few tracks only not the whole collection.

        tonnes more good uns, loads I've probably forgot, lot's of honorable mentions. It's been a great decade for indie/guitar music imo, as good as anything in any other decade.

        It's all a matter of perspective i.m.o, some people stand still with the music from a certain period of their lives, but it's all evolving/reapearing in a different guise.

        I'm almost the reverse, I think I'm addicted to new music, I find it hard to listen to old music, but every now and then I have a wee phase of checking out the old stuff and enjoying it for what it is all over again.

                    It got played to death on the radio and was unavoidable for about 6 weeks. Plus the woman who sat opposite me at last client co but one had it as the ring tone on her phone, which she frequently left on her desk when she went to meetings.

                      Someone nominated Kid A?!

                      The Bombay Bicycle Club call is good though, if it is meaning the acoustic album?
