Just curious. I could use a few ideas for car music.
Mine:
5. Justice - â€
4. Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium
3. Of Montreal - Satanic Panic in the Attic
2. Sigur Ros - ( )
1. The Arcade Fire - Funeral

I don't really feel Mars Volta for that list...Of course it's subjective though. Good other picks. That isn't my favorite Sigur Ros album though. I like Von. Maybe Takk.
I'd also nominate Castaways and Cutouts.

JD, are you going to the Justice gig at the commodore? Tickets were sold out when I tried, should be an insane show though.
I've been listening to that album so much that I would include it in my list, but here it is:
People under the stairs-Stepfather
Daft Punk-Human after all
Muse-Absolution
RJD2-Since we last spoke
Digitalism-Idealism

Legit list
No I'm not, I don't have money for concerts, it's something I've cut out of my budget, unless I'm doing it as a date. But I really wish I could go, Justice is better than Daft Punk. Did I just say that? Yes I just said that.

I find them to be kind of like 70's and/or 90's brit-rock repackaged for a new audience. Copycats!

hhahahha isnt all of todays music just recylced anyway? id much rather have a band be copying from the 70's-80's genre wich in my opinion much better than any other decade(s) of music.

This is tough. But, without sticking to one genre (I'd have too much rap/hip-hop on the list), here's mine.
Chromeo - Fancy Footwork
Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol. 2
RJD2 - Since We Last Spoke
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
Mattafix - Signs of a Struggle

Glad you guys like the Justice joint. I'm hitting up the concert here in Toronto. I saw Daft Punk earlier this summer, it was ridiculous. I think Justice are better DJs, well, the one guy is but nothing will be able to top the Daft Punk concert. Pics of the show in my profile.
No order!
Girl Talk - Night Ripper
The National - Boxer
Wilco - Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot
Ghostface Killah - Fishscale
Modest Mouse - Good News for People who Like Bad News
Ugh, there are a lot of other good albums too!
Justice - +
Jay Z - The Black Album
Kanye West - The College Dropout

Oh, and if I have to recommend one in particular for everyone to listen to... go get Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot. It's on here a bunch and an amazing album.

I don't think so. It is alright, but nothing compared to Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot.
