The Spoon fans and First Aid Kit fans are fighting it out, I see. Who will come out on top?

Also, we're a little lackluster on nominations recently! Just getting in a hopeful word before we end up having few to none next week

I'll nominate "Divine Youth" by Manic Street Preachers

I nominate Angus & Julia Stone - A Heartbreak. I liked Down The Way (despite most songs being overplayed in Australia) and Ii'll be interested what Rick Rubin will bring the project.

Can we nominate score/songs from movie as well?

For your consideration this week:
-Jessie Ware - Tough Love
-FKA TWIGS - Two Weeks
-Manic Street Preachers - Europa Geht Durch Mich

Nomination:

Old Crow Medicine Show: Sweet Amarillo

Gonna make a second nomination, sorta wish it was my first; "Summer Noon" by Jeff and Spencer Tweedy.

Nominations for 'Waves' or 'Lorena' by Sleeper Agent.

I nominate "Pleasure" by Baxter Dury.
