With the new issue onsale, Top 50 of the year inside and all, plus the whole Uncut Music Award business, it occurs to me I should hunker down and prepare a Wild Mercury Sound 2010 chart. Not sure how many I’ll stretch to this year – 75 or so, I reckon – but hopefully I’ll start rolling that out next week. In the meantime, a very 2011-heavy playlist for you to pore over… 1 Moebius – Blue Moon (Sky) 2 The Low Anthem – Smart Flesh (Bella Union) 3 Earth – Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light 1 (Southern Lord) 4 The Fall – This Nation’s Saving Grace: Deluxe Edition (Beggar’s Banquet) 5 Kim Doo Soo – The Evening River (Blackest Rainbow) 6 Jonny – Jonny (Turnstile) 7 PJ Harvey – Let England Shake (Island) 8 Six Organs Of Admittance – Asleep On The Floodplain (Drag City) 9 Gruff Rhys – Hotel Shampoo (Turnstile) 10 Lia Ices – Grown Unknown (Jagjaguwar) 11 Padang Food Tigers – Born Music (Blackest Rainbow) 12 The Cave Singers – No Witch (Jagjaguwar) 13 A Hawk And A Hacksaw – Cervantine (L.M Dupli-cation) 14 Nicolas Jaar – Space Is Only Noise (Circus Company) 15 Mogwai – Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will (Rock Action) 16 Supersilent – Supersilent 10 (Rune Grammofon) 17 Joan As Police Woman – The Deep Field (PIAS)
