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 =|

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.

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