This list could stand to be a little less white.

Thanks Austinist... this made iTunes gift cards my favorite present this year. Shearwater should be higher, though, as should White Denim.

(with a slight hint of sarcasm here) This list is backwards. Okkervil River should be ranked much higher than Fleet Foxes. MGMT is so overrated - blech. Frightened Rabbit's Midnight Organ Fight should be in here instead of MGMT.
