1	Plans (2005) more music like this by Death Cab for Cutie 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 $12.72! new only from $12.72!
2	Transatlanticism (2003) more music like this by Death Cab for Cutie 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 $6.24! new only from $11.63!
3	First Band on the Moon (1996) more music like this by The Cardigans For listeners who had caught up with the Cardigans on their breakout album, Life, the group's third album was a confusing pastiche which included several conventional pop songs, but also added tracks with left-field arrangements and some (comparatively) disturbing lyrics. In reality, however, the group had simply returned to the mood and feel of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.65!
4	If You're Feeling Sinister (1996) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian Belle & Sebastian's second record, If You're Feeling Sinister, is, for all intents and purposes, really their first, since their debut in 1997 was not heard outside of privileged inner circles. And If You're Feeling Sinister really did have quite a bit of an impact upon its release in 1997, largely because during the first half of the '90s the ... see all copies from $9.23! new only from $10.76!
5	Tigermilk (1996) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian Belle & Sebastian's first album, Tigermilk, was initially pressed in a quantity of 1,000 on their own label, Electric Honey Recordings. The record was intended to be the end result of Stuart Murdoch's music business school course, but it became an unexpected word-of-mouth sensation in England, and the LP quickly disappeared from shops. As a result ... see all copies from $6.45! new only from $10.76!
6	Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant (2000) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian When Belle & Sebastian canceled several dates on their 1998 North American tour after cellist Isobel Campbell fell ill, many fans cried foul; couldn't the rest of the group have gone on without her? Of course not -- Belle & Sebastian is a band in the most democratic sense of the word, a point reinforced by Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a ... see all copies from $4.20! new only from $10.76!
7	The Concretes (2004) more music like this by The Concretes Four years after their wonderful EP collection Boy, You Better Run Now was released by the star-crossed indie imprint Up Records (whose founder, Chris Takino, died of leukemia shortly after Boy, You Better Run Now's release), the Concretes return with The Concretes, their proper full-length debut and first album for Astralwerks. Because of the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.41!
8	Let's Knife (1993) more music like this by Shonen Knife Song titles "Twist Barbie," "Flying Jelly Attack," and "I Am a Cat" offer an accurate snapshot of this Japanese band...then there's the environmental anthem (?) "Bear Up Bison": "He has a right to live though he's ill ill ill-shaped/He's on the way to extinction/We only want what's best for him/Bear up bison never say die!" There's something ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $7.43!
9	In a Nutshell (2007) more music like this by Pelle Carlberg After a stretch of albums as the leader of second-string Swede popsters Edson, singer/songwriter Pelle Carlberg struck out for a solo career with 2005's Everything. Now!, which continued on the same low-key, moody path his former band had followed. However, something seems to have changed between that album and its follow-up, In a Nutshell: by ... see all copies from $10.97! new only from $10.97!
10	Storytelling (2002) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian Much like the film Storytelling itself, which was drastically edited and censored before finally reaching theaters at a running time just short of 90 minutes, Belle & Sebastian's music for the movie barely appeared in the final cut. All of their work appears on Storytelling, for better or worse -- it's an occasionally jumbled, yet undeniably ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $4.29!
11 view cover	Life (1995) more music like this by The Cardigans With tongue firmly in cheek, the Cardigans decided to play up the candyfloss arrangements of their debut for second album Life. Where Emmerdale studied an introverted melancholy, Life is undiminished in both its independent-minded exuberance ("Hey! Get Out of My Way") and zest to enjoy life with others ("Daddy's Car," "Gordon's Gardenparty"). The ... see all copies from $8.27! new only from $13.95!
12 view cover	Friendly Fire [Bonus DVD] (2006) more music like this by Sean Lennon see all copies from $5.81! new only from $20.31!
13 view cover	The Way of the Vaselines: A Complete History (1992) more music like this by The Vaselines Kurt Cobain made a lot of mistakes in his life but loving the Vaselines was not one of them. Nirvana covered one of their songs for their MTV Unplugged session, two other covers show up on the Incesticide record and as Kurt might tell you if he were alive today, from 1986 to 1989 the Vaselines were the best pop band on the planet. Sub Pop was kind ... see all copies from $9.23! new only from $10.76!
14 view cover	Push Barman to Open Old Wounds (2005) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian Belle & Sebastian never felt tied down to the album as the ultimate expression of a band's worth. Put simply, they didn't feel the need to hold back their best songs for albums; the fourth song on a four-song EP was just as likely to be among their finest as any other. For proof check out Push Barman to Open New Wounds, a handy compilation of the ... see all copies from $10.33! new only from $10.33!
15 view cover	I Hope (2001) more music like this by Holiday Flyer I Hope is Holiday Flyer's fourth record, but it is the first recording with a fully realized band. Founding siblings Katie and John Conley have teamed up with longtime friends Verna Brock (California Oranges), drummer Jim Rivas (Rocketship), and bassist Mike Yoas to deliver a more unified sounding recording. I Hope is filled with bright, ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $11.65!
16 view cover	In Case We Die (2005) more music like this by Architecture in Helsinki On their debut album, Fingers Crossed, Architecture in Helsinki felt like they were just getting their bearings. This gave the album, and the Australian indie pop collective's mix of symphonic and electronic pop, a tentative, first-steps kind of charm. However, after a spending a year on the road tightening up their live act, and a little while ... see all copies from $12.32! new only from $14.14!
17 view cover	Legal Man (2000) more music like this by Belle & Sebastian I must admit that I have no idea what a "Legal Man" is-a pimp, a policeman, a meter maid? I'm clueless. This knowledge, however, is not necessary to enjoying this single. "Legal Man" find Belle and Sebastian picking up on the 60's pop sound of "Lazy Line Painter Jane" complete with backing female vocalists The Maisonettes and, strangely, a sitar. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.25!
18 view cover	Dreamy (1991) more music like this by Beat Happening A stunning return to form, Dreamy reprises the dark aggression of the preceding Black Candy, but brings to the table a significantly stronger and more assured collection of songs. Measuring Calvin Johnson's increasingly menacing lead turns with Heather Lewis' more wistful contributions, the album strikes a careful balance between maturity and na ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $13.25!
19 view cover	The Kiss (2007) more music like this by Bikeride Little known fact: Tony Carbone has the ability to turn everything he touches into chocolate. Another little known fact: when he's not turning things into chocolate, Carbone composes intricate, literate pop songs as the masthead of Bikeride. Now, it's understandable that nobody knows about, let alone believes, the tales of Carbone's Midas-like ... see all copies from $12.09! new only from $14.42!
20 view cover	Party Tyme Karaoke: Pop Female (1999) more music like this by Karaoke see all copies from $5.36! new only from $8.06!
21 view cover	All Girl Summer Fun Band (2002) more music like this by All Girl Summer Fun Band The All Girl Summer Fun Band is exactly what the name implies -- four fun-loving females who produce warm, breezy pop with oodles of "oohs" and "shooby-doos" in the vein of Heavenly, Tiger Trap, and 1960s girl groups like the Crystals. Based in Portland, OR, they have ties to a number of other Northwest acts like Hutch & Kathy (the latter drums ... see all copies from $11.14! new only from $13.25!
22 view cover	Come Out, Come Out [Bonus Tracks] (1996) more music like this by Cub Come Out, Come Out is Cub's masterpiece, transcending the cutesy limitations of cuddlecore to create music of genuine originality and meaning. Each of the 11 original tracks here is an absolute gem, buoyed by Ramones-like abandon but anchored by an ever-expanding melodic sophistication and lyrical depth; apart from almost absurdly infectious ... see all copies from $5.94! new only from $13.91!
23 view cover	You Turn Me On (1992) more music like this by Beat Happening Beat Happening's final LP is also their best: concluding the emotional and musical progression begun with the minimalist innocence of their earliest work, You Turn Me On is a mature record of tremendous breadth and complexity. Where once the trio's songs were brief and bouncy, the nine tracks here are epic (several top out at over six minutes) and ... see all copies from $11.14! new only from $13.25!
24 view cover	Fingers Crossed (2004) more music like this by Architecture in Helsinki Architecture in Helsinki's debut, Fingers Crossed, introduces their very appealing collage of electronic and indie pop. While there are a lot of groups out there mixing these styles, this Australian octet's music stands out, and not just because they use tap dancing as an instrument. Even though the band uses a wide array of sounds, ranging from ... see all copies from $15.02! new only from $15.02!
25 view cover	A Truckload of Trouble: 1986-1993 (1993) more music like this by The Pastels Collecting most of the singles the Pastels released on Fire, A Truckload of Trouble: 1986-1993 is a fine introduction to any newcomer and a vital piece of any fan's collection. These songs see the Pastels at their shambolic best, whining guitars blazing and ringing, alternating slurred and dreamy vocals punctuating the finest ever C-86 tunes, and ... see all copies from $14.60! new only from $14.60!
