That is a good song
You sold me it by mentioning My Latest Novel instantly.
I listened to the new M83 album yesterday at long last. It is very good, definitely too long though. Listening to the whole thing sounds and feels very other worldy.
Here is the lead single from it which you've probably all heard on some tv show or other. This song isn't a clear indication of how varied the album is like.

Because I've been so bored tonight, I decided to start compiling my top ten albums of 2011. It isn't going to be an easy feat I tell you. I have a list of 29 or so albums which I've really liked a lot, so I just need to start whittling them down. I should hopefully have a varied and interesting mix when I put up the final list in December.
Rocky, whilst I was going back over these pages I noticed you put up a song by Alex Clare called Up All Night. I remember hearing this song a looooong time ago on the way to the cinema and loving it, but I never did hear who it was. I just happened to have a quick listen then to your post whilst I was browsing through and I instantly remembered The version I heard though was this awesome remix..
I really miss having my Iphone where I could easily just pop onto Itunes and buy remixes like this for my music collection

I heard an amazingly amazing song called Fuck Music by a band called Chicks on the radio recently. I can't find it on youtube, but it's on their myspace (ooh, retro) and I hope you all go listen to it because it will most likely make your day. It's kind of in the vein of I Touch Myself by Divinyls.
I'd just like to take this opportunity, at the landmark opening of The Alternative Music Thread: Part II, to announce that the list you people have described as "great", "really good", "shamless, contrasting, diverse", "bullshit!" and "a bit iffy" - it's Rocky Raccoon's Top 40 Songs of 2011!
Coming at you in the next few weeks, the definitive list of the musical year that was 2011 promises to be as exciting, divisive, controversial and essential as it was last year. Tell your friends. Tell your family. Tell the people that don't usually frequent the Alternative Music Thread.

ah FOR, I have a present for you..
I know not many people here like him, but I picked up the new ep from James Blake yesterday. It's very very desolate and cold and lonely, but still lovely none the less.
I think I'll do my top 3 favourite songs of the year very soon closely followed by my top ten albums before you start your list RR.
