- The House – Razorlight (Slipway Fires)
- Hidden Shame – Elvis Costello (Secret, Profane and Sugarcane)
- Dog Days Are Over – Florence And The Machine (Lungs)

As a native of the motherland, can I just say; spot on! :) thanks guys
No problem, any other UK bands us Westerners should be aware of?
lmao@archelon…Good cast D!
Thanks. I like taking on an area that I haven’t heard much recent music and updating myself. Next stop, Poland!
If you’re liking Florence/Noisettes (awesome live btw) I’d recommend La Roux, and have a list to the new Art Brut stuff, it’s pretty awesome. User reviews up soon ;)
