Buy Now	Parachutes (more) »rank: 363 by: Coldplay : : Coldplay Photos More from Coldplay A Rush of Blood to the Head X&Y Live 2003 Amazon.com:Music doesn't come more touching than this. With their debut single alone, the emotion-fortified 'Shiver,' Coldplay prove they can shift between elated and crushed in a breath, as singer Chris Martin pours out music's oldest chestnut (unconditional yet unrequited love) with the shakiest of voices and a backdrop of epic guitars. For 10 tracks on Parachutes, he adds newfound meaning to the most tired and overused rock sentiments--love found, love lost, love unrequited--over acoustic guitars and emotionally fraught rock. And for once, all ...	Buy Now	Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust (more) »rank: 411 by: Sigur Ros : :Inspired by the unfettered feeling of the acoustic performances filmed during Heima, Sigur Rósadopted a looser approach in creating their fifth album Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust.The album consequently is fresher and more human than anything they ve previouslyrecorded.Rough edges, cracked notes, and the sound of fingers on strings are audible resulting in tracks(e.g. Íllgresi ) that prove to be the band's sparsest and most affecting work to date. Worry notthough, plenty of electric guitar can be heard throughout the album ensuring Sigur Rós commitment to challenging sonic limitations.Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust is truly a groundbreaking album ...
Buy Now	Transatlanticism (more) »rank: 793 by: Death Cab for Cutie : :With songs equal to those on We Have the Facts and a lush, brilliant production that continues what The Photo Album started, Transatlanticism is easily Death Cab's best record to date. Much attention has duly been focused on doe-eyed singer/lyricist Ben Gibbard, co-star of the Postal Service phenomenon, and Ben's voice is as strange, beautiful, and as strong as ever on these songs, which deal with the difficulties of long-distance relationships. But guitarist/producer Chris Walla once again proves himself to be the band's secret weapon, layering subtle sonic touches throughout Transatlanticism, which is most definitely a 'headphone record.' This Seattle quartet is one ...	Buy Now	Evil Urges (more) »rank: 502 by: My Morning Jacket : : My Morning Jacket Photos
Buy Now	Forth (more) »rank: 804 by: The Verve : :Something happens when the Verve are together that none of them experience when they are apart. Individually, the Verve are all highly-accomplished players. Singer Richard Ashcroft has been called the greatest singer in the world by no less a peer than Coldplay s Chris Martin. Liverpool-born Simon Jones s dub-informed bass takes the Verve s music far beyond rock and into space and dub; Peter Salisbury plays drums more like a jazz great than a conventional rock drummer and when the tag guitarist of his generation is thrown about it often lands at the feet of the hugely adventurous, psychedelic, exploratory Nick ...	Buy Now	Plans (more) »rank: 491 by: Death Cab for Cutie : :When an indie-rock band as intimately and fiercely loved as Death Cab for Cutie makes the inevitable major-label jump, it often telegraphs a painful death. Witness Husker Du, the Replacements, Nirvana--hell, even R.E.M. After a successful four-album run on tiny Seattle imprint Barsuk, however, Death Cab for Cutie just might buck the trend on its Atlantic premiere. Yes, you can grumble about the production (a little too slick), the proportion of ballads (a little too many) and the overall feeling of restraint (a little too much), but ultimately the album delivers everything the group does best in emotional, experimental songs such as 'What ...
