Great albums of the 2000s?

[Baleforce]

contraband by velvet revolver is brilliant, I still listen to that a lot now

 

[inkpenspur]

Recent, but Mapping the Rendezvous by the Courteeners is excellent... saw them last week in Southampton with the missus and they were great... didn't feel too old either!

[Eriktheviking]

Is this it - The Strokes

Youth and Young Manhood - Kings of Leon

Behind the Music - The Soundtrack of Our Lives

Rockin' the Suburbs - Ben Folds

 

[Robbo]

Johnny Cash's American III, IV and V are good albums. Cover songs all of them though, don't know if that counts.

Ryan Adams - Gold

Elliott Smith - Figure 8

Kings of Leon - Only by the night

 

[Robbo]

Amy Winehouse - Back to black

Muse - Black holes and revelations/Origin of symmetry

 

[Robbo]

Can't think of much more. Not the best decade for classic albums that.

 

[the dza]

Slum Village - Fantastic Vol 2.

 

[johnola]

Raconteurs: consolers of the lonely
Hard fi - stars of cctv

 

[Baleforce]

there was a lot of twee the the bands that all sounded the fudging same, there was a real lads and pints vibe for a while that was absolutely hateful

 

[Rorschach]

The Strokes - Is This It
The White Stripes - Elephant
Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes - love these guys - sort of Neill Young had sex with the Beach boys
Arcade Fire - Funeral
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand - Ithought the were going to bigger than they turned out but this is a goodun.
Norah Jones - Come Away with Me - not my genre really but there is no denying it's popularity. I would btw.
LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver
Radio Head - In Rainbows - IMO their best album.
Daft Punk - Discovery
Gorillaz - Demon Days - Very impressed with the ideas Damon Albarn has. Really inventive bloke.
TV on the Radio - Dear Science - A bit art house but Golden Age is a keeper.
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not - When the Sun Goes Down is a modern classic.
The Killers - Hot Fuss
Radiohead - Kid A - Radiohead with some jazz brick. Why not?
Ryan Adams - Gold - For New York, New York alone. A classic.

I could have throw a few more leftfield albums in here but they would have been personal choices really. Also the more astute of you may notice no hiphop in this list, which I am not a massive of fan of but I like in moderation, when pieced together with real singing.

Also I'm going to sneak in Z by My Morning Jacket. Just listening to it now and I forgot how good it was.
