25. ARIEL PINK'S HAUNTED GRAFFITI - TODAY BEFORE
A full-scale Mars, but Mars is interesting that for some can reach the point of genius. And the stranger project peculiar Californian composer Ariel Pink has caused a furor within the indie world. How do you define it? Then we would say remember seventies pop rock with surfer gone through a filter dream, with tons of psychedelia and a point to freak and glam flooding out. But not everything is a new creation, the album contains several songs and reworked past improved.
Blondies Butt-House, Bright Lit Blue Skies , a tribute to Joy Division is Revolution's A Lie , Round and Round and above Can not Hear My Eyes deserve to be among the best Songs of 2010, no doubt.

24. THE WAR ON DRUGS - FUTURE EP
WEATHER
return Spectacular The War On Drugs with this EP, after his excellent debut " Wagonwheel Blues." The band from New Jersey boasts an enormous potential to become very large, but their little businesses will not become mainstream.
Your blues-rock mixed with folk and ambient, with some influences Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen or Mark Knopfler quite pronounced, is downright delicious. Here is a fan which makes this EP is too short and are rubbing their hands ahead of their next album, hopefully not take too long.

23. GIRLS - BROKEN DREAMS CLUB EP
case similar to The War On Drugs , Californians Girls EP released it after his great debut album, " Album" (2009). Return with their sixties and seventies pop with surf air, fresh but mature, nuanced, excellent and exquisite preparation. This 6-song EP is a gift that the band wants to give to their fans after the great reception that took their debut album. And quite frankly is a very good gift, because nothing remains behind. wonderful themes as Broken Dreams Club , Alright (excellent that set of winds) or Carolina are proof of that. Excellent future holds.
The best: Alright.
Highlights: Broken Dreams Club, Thee Oh So
Protective One Catch: Carolina.
The hit: Heartbreaker.

22. Titus Andronicus - THE MONITOR
Here is another Mars. The rare (to put it in some way) Titus Andronicus have produced this great and unique vision of the American Civil War that we are told in long tracks between good guitarrazos and piercing scream. Because that is Titus Andronicus, a band of punk and folk (of Celtic airs), tavern songs of pure style hooligan. But not all screams and noise (blessed clutter), there is also room for some relajadito track as fantastic Wich Piss In A Pot (telita with the name of the track) and Four Score and Seven , or ballads To All Friends and New They showed that more than one record.
The best: The Battle Of Hampton Roads.
Highlights: Richard II, Four Score and Seven, Theme From "Cheers" A More Perfect Union, To All Friends and New, ... And Ever.
Catch: Wich Piss In A Pot.
The hit: Richard II.

21. TAME IMPALA - INNERSPEAKER
Fantastic disc are taken from the manga these Australians, a tribute to the best psychedelic rock, frankly delicious. Impeccably produced, full of textures and nuances, listening to a psychedelic trip is all of 60 and 70, the golden years of the genre. As if that were not enough, the air surf rock of one of their songs has just finish. If you are nostalgic for this genre, what are you waiting to hear? To the suspicious, I say, is not merely a revival , much more.
The best: It's Not Meant To Be.
Highlights: Jeremy's Storm, Desire Be Desire Go, Lucidity, Why Will not You Make Up Your Mind? "Runway Houses, City, Clouds."
Catch: Alter Ego.
The hit: Lucidity.

20. SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS - DISCONNECT FROM DESIRE
One of the surprises and confirmations as a band of the past 2010. His 2 nd album on the market "Disconnect From Desire " has given a turn to move to more electronic electropop without losing his touch or ambient dream pop and shoegaze up on a subject. But what makes this the 2 nd album is that it is much more accessible and commercial than the first, but beware that in this case does not involve any negative connotation, but quite the opposite. A nice and pleasant experience of hearing this record leaves us with beautiful landscapes, enlivened with the good and gentle vocal combination of Deheza sisters. In short, we face a series of big issues that no limp, and an outstanding finish to the wonder that is The Wait .
The best: The Wait.
Highlights: Windstorm, Heart Is Strange, ILU, Babelonia, Joviann, Camarilla, Dust Devil.
Catch: Bye Bye Bye.
The hit: Heart Is Strange.

19. Nothing WILD - GEMINI
This is another high-profile debuts of the year and has gained wide acceptance within the indie scene , although excessive gafapastismo can shoot more than one (understandably) back . The style of these Americans Virginia falls midway between the dream pop and post-punk , with a characteristic touch ambient but also cheerful and optimistic touching point flowerpower (very 70's) for moments. They seem also to one of the revelations of the year, Beach House , who find much higher on this list.
The beginning of the disc is almost perfect with Live In Dreams, Summer Holiday (Best, one of the themes of the year), Lilac O, Bored Games and Drifter, but gradually disc fades but leaves us with thoughtful details like fresh movidito Composition Our Back to close with good and dark Gemini.

18. HOT CHIP - ONE LIFE STAND
British band electronics (with a touch of pop quite pronounced) Hot Chip has definitively consecrated as a group with this " One Life Stand ", their 4th album study. Sponsored at the time by the current scene almost messiah, James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem have grown by leaps and bounds but in their own right and because they harbor a great talent.
On this album you will find cheerful melodies and great elegance, where pop and electronica are mixed almost perfectly, even with feeling soul. To make matters worse the excellent, smooth and unmistakable voice of its leader Alexis Taylor gives a personal touch, non-transferable. One of the positive surprises of the year, no doubt.

17. VAMPIRE WEEKEND - AGAINST
The gafapastismo has fallen for the 2nd album of this band from New Jersey . Yes, it's good, very good, very interesting, but not a panacea and acknowledge that all that paraphernalia that surrounds modernilla unsettles me a bit and has not been located for this album so high on the list and perhaps deserves.
Prejudice apart, their joy and freshness pop melodies that invite you to move very quietly the skeleton, its fantastic chorus, its originality, its minimalism, its funny keyboards and simple but very good electronic arrangements make this album something almost unique, and yes, almost excellent. For all its Caribbean flair but especially reggae in most of the songs gives it a unique touch. Top with my dear Local Natives of the new genre called Afroindie , nice battle awaits us in future years for the throne.
