1	Speak for Yourself (2005) more music like this by Imogen Heap add to wishlist The U.S. debut solo album by Frou Frou vocalist Imogen Heap is a captivating record that fuses innovative electronic soundscapes with a strong female voice. If "Goodnight and Go" -- a lilting, pulsating, and hit-ready concoction -- and the alluring, synthesized pop of "Hide and Seek" are the most direct numbers, experimental numbers like the ... see all copies from £4.79! new only from £5.74!
2	Hey Eugene! (2007) more music like this by Pink Martini add to wishlist It took Pink Martini a full decade -- their debut, Sympathique, came out in 1997; the follow-up, Hang on Little Tomato, was released in 2004; and now Hey Eugene! arrives in 2007 -- but they've finally perfected their particular good-time blend of cabaret pop, pre-"world music" international fare, golden-age Hollywood scores, and lounge-informed, ... see all copies from £7.43! new only from £11.41!
3	Garden State (2004) more music like this by Original Soundtrack add to wishlist The soundtrack to Zach Braff's Garden State is nearly as much of a piece with the film as the similarly sweet, quirky combinations of sound and vision in Wes Anderson's films and soundtracks. Garden State, however, is more modern in its outlook and more emotionally direct, with a mixtape earnestness belied by using not one but two songs from the ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £7.47!
4	The Crane Wife (2006) more music like this by The Decemberists add to wishlist Colin Meloy and his brave Decemberists made the unlikely jump to a major label after 2005's excellent Picaresque, a move that surprised both longtime fans and detractors of the band. While it is difficult to imagine the suits at Capitol seeing dollar signs in the eyes of an accordion- and bouzouki-wielding, British folk-inspired collective from ... see all copies from £3.73! new only from £5.51!
5	Plans (2005) more music like this by Death Cab for Cutie add to wishlist For your consideration: a wildly successful indie rock band with a legion of followers on an equally successful, highly credible independent label makes the jump to major-label powerhouse Atlantic, leading to much chagrin and speculation among its fans as they awaited with bated breath for what would happen to the group. The result was For Your ... see all copies from £6.25! new only from £9.91!
6	Louder Than Bombs (1987) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist A compilation of singles, B-sides, album tracks, and BBC sessions assembled for the American market, Louder Than Bombs is an overlong and unfocused collection that nevertheless boasts a wealth of brilliant material. Since Hatful of Hollow was unavailable in the U.S. at the time of the release of Louder Than Bombs, this compilation contains large ... see all copies from £3.25! new only from £8.02!
7	The Queen Is Dead (1986) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist Meat Is Murder may have been a holding pattern, but The Queen Is Dead is the Smiths' great leap forward, taking the band to new musical and lyrical heights. Opening with the storming title track, The Queen Is Dead is a harder-rocking record than anything the Smiths had attempted before, but that's only on a relative scale -- although the backbeat ... see all copies from £6.85! new only from £8.32!
8	Dan in Real Life (2007) more music like this by Sondre Lerche add to wishlist While in the beginning stages of making his film Dan in Real Life, director Peter Hedges went looking for someone to provide music the way Cat Stevens did for Harold and Maude or Simon & Garfunkel for The Graduate, someone to filter the meaning and feel of the movie through his songs. It's hard to argue with his choice; ever since his first record ... see all copies from £11.43! new only from £11.43!
9	Chutes Too Narrow (2003) more music like this by The Shins add to wishlist On the strength of their debut, Oh, Inverted World, the Shins went from indie rock underdogs to one of the style's most beloved bands, and deservedly so: it sounded fresh and timeless, universal and uniquely personal. In fact, it was so good that it may have raised expectations unfairly for their second album, especially since fans had to wait two ... see all copies from £9.46! new only from £9.57!
10	Give Up (2003) more music like this by The Postal Service add to wishlist Coming off their work on Dntel's beautiful This Is the Dream of Evan and Chan, Jimmy Tamborello and Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard team up again for their full-length debut as Postal Service, Give Up. Instead of covering that EP's territory again, with this album the duo crafts a poppier, new wave-inflected sound that recalls Tamborello's work ... see all copies from £9.06! new only from £9.06!
11	Veneer (2005) more music like this by José González add to wishlist Don't let the name fool you; singer/songwriter José González is a Swedish-born and -raised son of Argentine parents. His debut album, Veneer, is a striking collection of hushed and autumnal indie pop bedroom songs that reside on the hi-fi end of the lo-fi spectrum. González is definitely a member of the "quiet is the new loud" school as founded by ... see all copies from £8.53! new only from £8.53!
12	The Man Who (1999) more music like this by Travis add to wishlist After their successful debut album of murky pop, Travis seemingly felt a need to tinker with the formula. The product of this change is The Man Who, a quiet album filled to the brim with atmospheric and introspective ballads. Acoustic guitars and tranquil melodies rule here, as this release is an entirely different affair than the band's revved-up ... see all copies from £2.07! new only from £3.12!
13	Transatlanticism (2003) more music like this by Death Cab for Cutie add to wishlist As musical lunacy goes, things have gotten as crazy as it gets for Death Cab for Cutie since 2002's You Can Play These Songs with Chords compilation. A wildly successful tour with Dismemberment Plan, a collaboration for singer Ben Gibbard with emo-electronic guru Dntel under the Postal Service moniker, and a whole new legion of fans swooning to ... see all copies from £8.23! new only from £8.23!
14	Castaways and Cutouts (2002) more music like this by The Decemberists add to wishlist Colin Meloy's dynamic vocals lead the way on Castaways and Cutouts, the impressive 2003 effort by Portland, OR, quintet the Decemberists. Throughout the disc, Meloy's songs tell tales of life's castaways, including Spanish gypsies and Turkish prostitutes, painting glorious pictures with supposedly suspicious characters. After opening the album ... see all copies from £9.32! new only from £9.32!
15	Riot on an Empty Street (2004) more music like this by Kings of Convenience add to wishlist Riot on an Empty Street ends a long period of inactivity for Kings of Convenience. During their three-year layoff Erlend Øye could be found making solo records and DJing while Eirik Glambek Boe was finishing his psychology degree. Luckily for fans of beautiful vocals and thoughtful indie pop, they decided to get back together. What this band is ... see all copies from £8.73! new only from £8.73!
16	Blur (1997) more music like this by Blur add to wishlist The Great Escape, for all of its many virtues, painted Blur into a corner and there was only one way out -- to abandon the Britpop that they had instigated by bringing the weird strands that always floated through their music to the surface. Blur may superficially appear to be a break from tradition, but it is a logical progression, highlighting ... see all copies from £2.07! new only from £6.12!
17	The Very Best of the Smiths (2001) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist see all copies from £11.68! new only from £11.68!
18	Urban Hymns (1997) more music like this by The Verve add to wishlist Not long after the release of A Northern Soul, the Verve imploded due to friction between vocalist Richard Ashcroft and guitarist Nick McCabe. It looked like the band had ended before reaching its full potential, which is part of the reason why their third album, Urban Hymns -- recorded after the pair patched things up in late 1996 -- is so ... see all copies from £1.99! new only from £8.76!
19	The Best of Blur (2000) more music like this by Blur add to wishlist It's boring to point out omissions on hits compilations, especially when a collection is as generous as the 18-track The Best of Blur, but let's do it anyway. The Best of Blur largely bypasses the group's key album, Modern Life Is Rubbish, the record that invented Britpop, skewing in favor of the self-consciously "experimental" 13, which, for all ... see all copies from £3.19! new only from £7.96!
20	Meat Is Murder (1985) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist The Smiths' second album isn't a great leap forward, but it does contain some fine guitar-pop, including "The Headmaster Ritual," "Rusholme Ruffians," and "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore." The American version included the pulsating "How Soon is Now?," which doesn't fit the mood of the rest of the album. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from £6.61! new only from £8.24!
21	The Smiths (1984) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist Arriving in an era dominated by synth pop and gloomy post-punk, the Smiths' eponymous debut was the bracing beginning of a new era. On the surface, the Smiths' sound wasn't radically different from traditional British guitar pop -- Johnny Marr's ringing, layered guitars were catchy and melodic -- but it was actually an astonishing subversion of ... see all copies from £4.98! new only from £7.50!
22	The Hour of Bewilderbeast (2000) more music like this by Badly Drawn Boy add to wishlist What has the field of lo-fi slacker pop come to when faced by an LP as ambitious and entertaining as Badly Drawn Boy's The Hour of Bewilderbeast? Despite all attempts to sabotage his songwriting and production with innumerable experimental tidbits, songs within a song, and (seemingly) tossed-off arrangements, Damon Gough has to face the fact that ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £7.60!
23	Strangeways, Here We Come (1987) more music like this by The Smiths add to wishlist Recorded as the relationship between Morrissey and Johnny Marr was beginning to splinter, Strangeways, Here We Come is the most carefully considered and elaborately produced album in the group's catalog. Though it aspires greatly to better The Queen Is Dead, it falls just short of its goals. With producer Stephen Street, the Smiths created a ... see all copies from £7.08! new only from £7.08!
24	Electronic (1991) more music like this by Electronic add to wishlist Both more and less than what a partnership of Sumner and Marr would promise, Electronic's debut has weathered time much better than might have been thought upon its release, but ultimately only half works. When it does, though, it's fantastic, sometimes shifting from okay to fantastic within the same song. Opening number "Idiot Country" is a bit ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £7.14!
25	Neptune City (2007) more music like this by Nicole Atkins add to wishlist Throughout Neptune City, Nicole Atkins takes inspiration from some of rock's most famous women -- Stevie Nicks, Chrissie Hynde and Siouxsie Sioux to name the most prominent. Though only time will tell if she will join the ranks of her inspirations, Atkins shows on this album that she has both the capability and potential. By either happy accident ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £8.35!
