Family Tree

Beautiful, really. Album didn't AMAZE me but was still good; this track made my heart stop beating for about half a minute when I first heard it.
2Fight Like Apes
Something Global

Energetic to a ridiculous level. Just makes me happy whatever the context.
3Thrice
The Artist In The Ambulance

Lyrically, this is awesome, and it's just so anthemic that if I feel like shouting to anything I listen to this.
4Dashboard Confessional
The Secret's In The Telling

Love the chorus melody more than most things ever... song's not amazing but is hella addictive.
5Socratic
Tear A Gash

Song kind of scares me but mostly the line 'when you look in mirrors, realise, how gorgeous you are' has relevance atm and is quite brilliant anyway. Yeah, it's cliched, but that's half the point of it.
6Taylor Swift
Love Story

Hi, I'm a sucker for teenage country-pop music. Actually love this album.
7Animal Collective
Summertime Clothes

And I want to waaalk around with you. Sublime.
8Brand New
The Quiet Things That Noone Ever Knows

Hmmm, surprised this is on here. It's awesome, like, I just don't have a love affair with it in terms of playing it out of the album. WASTING WORDS IN lower cases and CAPITALS.
9Maybeshewill
I'm In Awe, Amadeus

Piano line is immense. Heavier sections are enthralling. Album is incredible.
10Brand New
Sowing Season

It's just, how the chorus feels like a climax, but they still manage to better it with the bridge. Such an adrenaline-pumper.
11Bright Eyes
Nothing Gets Crossed Out

I got stuck in a rut around late January and Conor kinda understood me. :D
12Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Zero

Intoxicating.
13The Format
The First Single

Just because it's great, no other reason.
14Maybeshewill
Takotsubo

I found out the other day that Takotsubo cardiomypathy or something like that is the medical term for a broken heart. This song is even cooler than that.
15Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Hysteric

The new Maps. In fact, the better Maps.
16Johnny Foreigner
Salt, Pepa And Spindarella

DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO, DAAAAAAAAANCE. Bring out the real drums!!
17Bright Eyes
If The Brakeman Turns My Way

Sucker for a piano ballad
18Bloc Party
Trojan Horse

Intense, electronic-infused indie rock. Album is great; song is phenomenal.
19Taking Back Sunday
Cute Without the 'E' (Cut From The Team)

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah.
20Conor Oberst
Lenders In The Temple

If I love you then that's my faulttttt...
21Taking Back Sunday
There's no 'i' in team

But there is a 'me'.
22Bon Iver
Flume

Weird, I woulda thought Blindsided would be on here. Guess not. Awesome start to the album.
23Conor Oberst
Cape Canaveral

As far as imagery and atmosphere goes, one of the best songs I've heard in the last year.
24Sherwood
Alley Cat

Dunno, so catchy.
25Yellowcard
Afraid

Erm, because it rules.
