Does This Charming Man even count? It's not an album is it? I mean they released it as a single, but I don't think a single plus what? Two b-sides? Counts as a record.

EDIT: What the hell browsing this whole list its a cross between albums/singles...Someone should slap Mojo magazine =|

I don't understand why people care about these lists.

bell and sebastion,...ha that reminds me of that part of high fidelity when jack black calls it sad bastard music

Seems far to random to be any sort of credible list.
But I don't see anything bad on it. I can't even be bothered to hate on The Wedding Present these days.

I can't believe Lloyd Cole managed a spot in the top 20!

On the cover it says"The 50 greatest UK indie Records of All Time"
By the way I just saved everyone $10 so don't thank me or anything.

Certainly not top 20 but do you not like him? I think he is an underated artist and a great lyricist too.

Yeah but like half of these aren't records they're singles.
