How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb 

 U2

At the time my interest in albums was slowly coming to the surface, this was the first album I bought that wasn't a Beatles album. The music might not be strong enough to dismantle an atomic bomb, but it holds a lot of nostalgic value for me. Yes, more nostalgia. The album also has that very memorable chorus that some people might love and others might hate, the unforgettable words of "Vertigo": "Hello, Hello... Hola! I'm at a place called vertigo...". Yes, that's Spanish they included there!

Back To Bedlam

Hollow, but beautiful. James Blunt's "whiny" voice really does something emotionally powerful on this album full of tears, rain and perfect pop songs. The first album I fell in love with, before The Beatles and everything!

Hot fuss when it's hottest and singles-heaviest. The Killers indeed killed it and came on top with this stellar alternative glam rock debut. Great songs are also to be found further than track 5!

Aha Shake Heartbreak

Raw and energetic, just like the debut, but with many new flavours and in my opinion a huge improvement. Among many things, a song like "Day Old Blues" quite hilariously introduces yodeling! It also has a song about a girl who had problems with drinking milk!?

Narrow in scope and variation perhaps, but who cares when it's this effective? That minimalistic drawing of a bridge goes hand in hand with the also minimalistic, pure and above all soothing soundscapes so well!

Funeral

With lyrics such as "Now that I'm older, my heart's colder" and the album simply called "Funeral", you'll probably ask yourself if this really is Arcade Fire's debut and maybe question how joyful an album it's gonna be. It is in fact the debut and it's more uplifting than what you probably had expected. Some of the biggest anthems of the 21st century drenched in beautiful orchestration are on this very album!

I tend to agree with you about the backlash against Coldplay--I think they're a fine band that's made a lot of great, emotionally resonant music. I don't think they deserve the Nickelback treatment at all. (And neither does U2, but that's a story for another day.) So I appreciate your chart for putting A Rush of Blood to the Head at #1. I also love Funeral (I know everyone does, but it's for good reason), Illinois, Fleet Foxes, and Chutes Too Narrow, among many of your other selections. I really enjoy your detailed comments, too.
