This will surprise nobody, but I'm really digging the new Snow Patrol album, Eyes Open. Five reasons to like it:
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost
Also, I agree that Supermassive Black Hole, by Muse, is both very surprising and impressively good -- as the review mentions, they sound a bit like Goldfrapp, and frankly I'm of the opinion that there's a world shortage of Goldfrapp, so the more the better.
Are we going to get another rush of good albums released? Because it's about fucking time.

Boy Kill Boy - Civilian

Pet Shop Boys - Fundamental
The Pipettes - We Are The Pipettes
Nouvelle Vague 2
MANICALLY AVOID (which means you'll probably like it)
The Kooks - Inside/Out
Laurie
ig
Still, that duet with Martha is excellent, which I put down to her.
You can see them yodel like a crack whore scrambling for her fatal fix on Later With Jools Holland tonight. Martha will also be there, so I guess they're doing THAT song.
Personally I'd recommend Cansei De Ser Sexy (Brazilian Dance Funk Indie), TV on the Radio (barbershop quartet meets Radiohead, brilliant), Howling Bells (standard but good indie), Radio 4 (New York agitprop rock) and well loads of other things. The Organ (Canadian lesbionic smiths/cure pastiche who are brilliant), Mates of State.
One to avoid (i.e. you'll like it) : The Upper Room
Laurie

"Not so much a change in direction as a sudden swerve across all four lanes on the motorway."
Perhaps, although lyrically and in a general 'feel' sense there's a sense of the wacky and fun that Muse has long had (although was most evident on their first album, Showbiz). The new single is bonkers, and all the better for it. I'm hoping the doubters will be shown the error of the ways with a uniquely Muse album of funk.
