Oasis - What's the Story (Morning Glory)
What is there to say about this 1995 album that hasn't already been said, it took two Manchester brothers and made them into international superstars. Of course it contains Super classics such as Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger but also songs that I prefer such as the beautiful Champagne Supernova and She's Electric. I usually class myself as a Blur man over Oasis but you can't argue that this is a great album.
2016 Album
We Are Scientists - Helter Seltzer
We are Scientists are another one of those bands who have been around for years constantly churning out new music that no one really takes much notice of and this album on the whole is similar. Its a decent listen through but doesn't really stand out as something I would listen to more than once or twice. There is one song though from the album that I do really like, "Buckle" which has become one of my favourite songs of the year so far.

The Futureheads - Rant
This release from The Futureheads is anything but normal, the Sunderland 4 piece known for twangy guitar riffs and fast paced tunes take a step back with this piece of genius from 2012. What is so strange about Rant? I hear you ask. Well the whole album is done entirely A-Capella. The album is filled with instrumentless covers of their own and other musicians music as well as traditional folk songs. It was such a jump into the blue and it really worked for me at least and I made it my favourite album of 2012.
