I am please in that I saw nearly all of the people mentioned above this year, so I`ve done quite well gigwise although it`s died off recently. :(

2) Coldplay - Viva La Vida
3) Snow Patrol - A Hundred Million Suns

RE: Yer Top 5 best albums of the year so far are....
I think this year has been quite poor. Was trying to think of 5 albums I bought this year, and couldn`t. I had forgotton about Raconteurs new one, that was v good. REMs was good. Only CD I remember buying was Mevins - Nude with Boots (that`s probably `cos I saw them last weekend 3 times over 3 days at ATP :) ). So until I go through all my amazon and play emails from the year to see what else I bought, I only have 3 :(
new Slipknot and Metallica were OK, both v forgettable, no stand out tracks, can`t remember anything about either CD.
edit - just remember my mate lent me Angles by Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip, that was excellent, easily best CD of the year IMHO
