4. How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful by Florence + the Machine

I was really hoping for great things from this one, but it sounded like Lungs Part II.  So, not that it's a bad album, but it just didn't differentiate itself for me.

You....I like you.

 

Although I thought the Modest Mouse album was a big letdown. And I'd probably put My Morning Jacket at the top, that was such a beautiful album.

Admittedly their weakest album but I just have a soft spot for them and welcome the content. I want to blow my brains out whenever I hear lampshades of fire.
