1. Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues

2. Beirut - The Rip Tide

3. PJ Harvey - Let England Shake

not exactly a great year for albums with there being so many disappointing releases from artists who have done so much better in previous years

1. Manchester Orchestra- Simple Math
2. The Strokes- Angles
3. The Foo Fighters- Wasting Light...I know I know, it's predictable, mainstream, blah blah blah. There isn't a song I don't like, and i'll always have a soft spot for this band.

Probably
1. Strange Mercy
2. Helplessness Blues
3. Let England Shake

But making me choose just 3 is evil. Sad

1. tUnE-yArDs - w h o k i l l
2. The Kills - Blood Pressures
3. Bubonic Plague - Instant Coma (Haha, I love all this John Maus shit, though his own album was a little blah. Maybe it's just cause this one is shorter, has more punch to it)

Also, an honorable pop-mention to Watch the Throne and Born This Way. They might not deserve a spot on the short list, but they were pretty great at doing what pop albums do--letting friends sing songs together while drunk.
