I'm not sure what your trying to say here, but I'm guessing it's this; You name these albums (which are good choices by the way) and we chose our own favorite tracks from each of them... SO that's what I'll do.

Some Loud Thunder - I acctually haven't heard anything about this album, nor do I have it.

Boxer - "Mistaken for Strangers" and "Ada" in a close second

Hissing Fauna - "The Past Is A Grotesque Animal"

Neon Bible - "The Well and The Lighthouse"

Wincing The Night Away - "Split Needles"

Favourite Worst Nightmare - "This House is a Circus" tied with "Brainstorm"

Our Love to Admire - "The Heinrich Maneuver"

Sky Blue Sky - Don't have it yet. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot didn't impress me enough to buy it, let alone to buy a diffrent Wilco album.

And thats mine

Um, Sunset Rubdown is not associated with Broken Social Scene. But both bands are good, I’d check out their latest albums first and then work backwards.

Damn... I knew I should have checked that album before writing... My Bad. Sorry. I feel like an idiot.

That's a pretty silly reason for feeling like an idiot.

If you want to try Broken Social Scene(and I highly suggest that you do), I'd recommend starting with You Forgot it in People. I think it'd probably win a poll for people's favorite BSS album.

Thanks.

Both for the album suggestion and for making me feel better.

Don't have any these albums.

Will do the ones that I have heard:

Bon Iver - "Skinny Love"
Kanye - "Can't Tell Me Nothin"
The New Pornos - "Myriad Harbor"
Spoon - "The Underdog"

I'll do the favorite songs from my top 30.

White Stripes - Martyr for my Love
Okkervil River - Unless it Kicks
Radiohead - Bodysnatchers
Elliott Smith - High Times
The National - Mistaken for Strangers
Apples in Stereo - Sunndal Song
Arcade Fire - (Antichrist Television Blues)
Les Savy Fav - What Would Wolves Do?
Spoon - The Ghost of You Lingers
Patty Griffin - I Don't Ever Give Up
Sunset Rubdown - For the Pier (and Dead Shimmering)
Wilco - Impossible Germany
Ted Leo/Pharmacists - C.I.A.
Andrew Bird - Darkmatter
The Twilight Sad - Cold Days from the Birdhouse
Arctic Monkeys - Fluorescent Adolescent
The New Pornographers - Challengers
Miracle Fortress - Poetaster

The Hives - You Got It All . . . Wrong
Josh Ritter - The Temptation of Adam
The Dirty Projectors - Depression
The Besnard Lakes - Devastation
BSS Presents: Kevin Drew - Lucky Ones
Interpol - No "I" in Threesome

Wow! That makes a pretty hot playlist.

I've decided to let myself come on here since I'm over half done my finals.

Some Loud Thunder - "Yankee Go Home"
Boxer - Very difficult to chose, but I think I've settled on "Mistaken For Strangers", but "Brainy", "Apartment Story" and "Ada" are all close contenders.
Hissing Fauna - "Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse"; I'm one of the few whose favourite song isn't "The Past is a Grotesque Animal". Apparently, I'm also one of the few who doesn't have a signature containing lyrics from that song as well...
Neon Bible - "Ocean of Noise"
Wincing the Night Away - "Australia"
Favourite Worst Nightmare - "505"
Sound of Silver - "North American Scum"
In Rainbows - "Reckoner"
Strawberry Jam - "For Reverend Green", but I also love "Fireworks".
Challengers - "All the Things..."
For Emma, Forever Ago - "Skinny Love". I listened to this one for the first time on the weekend, and have listened to it a few times a day since then. This didn't seem like something I'd like (I'm generally not into folky stuff), but for some reason I can't stop listening to this.
Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga - "The Underdog"
The Stage Names - "A Hand to Take Hold of the Scene"
Random Spirit Lover - "Taming of the Hands that Came Back to Life", but "For the Pier (and Dead Shimmering)" and "Mending of the Gown" both get honorable mentions.
Person Pitch - "Bros"
Myths of the Near Future - "Golden Skans"

And, a few I'll add:
Icky Thump - "300mph Outpour Blues"
The Great Unwanted - "Get Outta Town"
Fort Nightly - "The Plot"
The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter - "The Temptation of Adam"

I haven't listened to Our Love to Admire, Sky Blue Sky, Kala, Widow City, or some of the other ones mentioned that I didn't give a song for.
