Saint Etienne - So Tough (1993)
A band I'm really getting into at the moment so I'm working my way through their discography in chronological order. This album is nearly as good as Foxbase Alpha but not quite, it seems to lack the 60's vibe that some of the tracks on Foxbase Alpha had. But it does make up for it somewhat with cracking tunes and the gorgeous piano-led 'Hobart Paving'. A great album.
Malory - The Third Face (2005)
Another band I'm really loving at the moment. I already had their second album Outerbeats which is fantastic and so far this album seems just as good. The band do such a great job of blending beautiful ambient guitars over electronic beats and they sound like no-one else really (maybe Slowdive at times). This album isn't quite as atmospheric and ambient as Outerbeats but the songs are more prominent and the heavier beats give the music a more danceable feel.
