1. Ganger - Hammock Style 2. Labradford - Prazision LP 3. Grails - Burning Off Impurities 4. Tortoise - TNT 5. Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven 6. Mogwai - Happy Songs for Happy People 7. Gregor Samsa - 55:12 8. Windy and Carl - Depths 9. Stereolab - Emperor Tomato Ketchup 10. Yndi Halda - Enjoy Eternal Bliss These are my current favourites. I haven't heard http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/labradford/mi_media_naranja/ - Mi Media Naranja yet but from the songs I listened too on last.fm it sounds like their best album. All recommendations are welcome. |

| I love Sigur Ros as well. I agree that ( ) was the best but I personally preferred Takk over Agaetis Byrjun. |

oh dear w exception of Labradford's album (from 2001) the rest is pretty much 90s vintage haha

Get some nice headphones, a rainy/gray day, and put Agaetis Byrjun on. Its magic. Even without the rainy/gray day its brilliant. Took me some time before I really loved that album, but once you hit that point there's no turning back.

^Agreed about Agaetis.
This list is too difficult to make, really. The only way I can do it is by keeping it to one album per band.
Godspeed - Lift Your Skinny Fists...
Sigur Ros - ( )
Mogwai - Happy Songs for Happy People
The Samuel Jackson Five - Easily Misunderstood
Tortoise - TNT
Mono - You Are There
Do Make Say Think - & Yet & Yet
Explosions in the Sky - The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place
Maserati - Inventions for the New Season
Russian Circles - Enter
Magyar Posse - Random Avenger
Ah, that's 11. Whatev. I love this stuff.
Also, lukedunne, you must hear Mi Media Naranja. I think it's the best of Labradford's works. ------------- www.last.fm/user/ThisCenotaph
