I think you'd like OM and Shrinebuilder from my list.

I couldn't find an OM downloaded last time I looked and I've never heard of Shrinebuilder.

they got my respect after seeing them live. that was really good, especially if you consider they only have one album. but yeah, a bit overrated for sure

1. Mastodon - Crack the Skye
2. Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest
3. Cave - Psychic Psummer
4. Amesoeurs - Amesoeurs
5. Animal Collective - MPP
6. A Place to Bury Strangers - Exploding Head
7. Mono - Hymn to the Immortal Wind
8. Diablo Swing Orchestra - Sing Along Songs for the Damned & Delirious
9. Regina Spektor - Far
10. Muse - The Resistance
11. The Sounds - Crossing the Rubicon
12. Pearl Jam - Backspacer
13. Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures

16. Atlas Sound - Logos
17. Wale - Attention Deficit
18. Iron & Wine - Around the Well
19. Monsters of Folk - Monsters of Folk
20. Those Darlins - Those Darlins

maybe, but i think it's one of the better albums of the year; maybe in the past few years too
i love it when new bands come out with an album that doesnt suck!

So are you saying that most debuts of a band suck?
I really hope that's not what you mean, and If you do I got to disagree.

1. anaal nathrakh - in the constellation of the black widow
2. vreid - milorg
3. the black dahlia murder - deflorate
4. suffocation - blood oath
5. gorod - process of a new decline
6. gorgoroth - Quantos Possunt Ad Satanitatem Trahunt
7. nile - those whom the gods detest
