If you really want to keep up to date with new music, and quality re-issues that you missed first time around, then either buy, or subscribe to Uncut Magazine. Really good interviews with bands and musicians, loads of reviews, and an excellent free cover CD that just begs to be ripped into iTunes. Mine always are, and all my Word CD's that preceded it.
In fact, the very latest issue CD has just this second finished playing, and I couldn't hear a duff track out of the fifteen on it.
Just about to rip it, and chuck a selection onto the Pod.
liking Chinese Man thanks Spud Face
Liking Shine Down at the moment
I'll baulk at recommending you albums as that is impossible without knowing your so called taste or preference in music, i suggest you follow a few of the following music sites/blogs and figure out where your musical sensibilities lie…and ditch your tv….it does nothing for you but suck the soul from your life.

That should keep you doing the two step bum shuffle for a while till you discover your likes.
Wu Lyf - Go tell fire to the mountain.
It's an oldie, but I give it to everyone I can.
We Bros, is just like, totally my song.
Edit: Sunset In The Rearview .com for ultra-hipster shit.
+1 for PSB. Awesome album or better still get the DVD.
last two I bought, inspired by mtb video sound tracks. Sample available online via iTunes or band websites
Bella Ruse (Trans Provence track "those where to good times") [url= http://bellaruse.com/music/ ]link[/url]

Wilco Johnson and Roger Daltrey Going Back Home
Surely an album by Roger & Wilko should have been called "Over and out"??
Thanks for making me aware of it though, just found a track on Youtube, looks like that's the next one I'm buying....
or better still get the DVD.
Now that i know this is a thing that exists, I must have it.
Good album, I could happily listen to Everest for hours at a time.
Saw them a few months ago and had one of those enlightenment moments upon realising i was surrounded by the type of short, wiry, bespectacled, balding men who you'd put money on having electricity connected to their sheds and skills with a soldering iron. Felt like i'd finally found [i]my people[/i]* (A very entertaining show too)
[b]deserter[/b] They can sometimes fall into the trap of just putting lots of bass on an antique sample, but generally they do good works with a hell of a range of guests ( [url= https://soundcloud.com/dubyouth-sound/j-o-g-j-a-chinese-man-feat ]J.O.G.J.A.[/url] with Indonesian vocalists is brilliant)
*my shed does not have electricity, but i have a dream. and a soldering iron.
OP, I noticed you like Lily & Madeleine, in which case I can, without reservation, recommend The Staves, three sisters who harmonise beautifully, and The Wailin' Jennies, a Canadian-based trio who also have sublime harmonies. You may also like, based on your short list, Paper Aeroplanes, from Wales, a duo who write sublime songs, and Rae Morris, who's touring as part of Bombay Bicycle Club, but is recording work of her own.
Saw her a week ago in Bath, and I'm seeing Paper Aeroplanes in Bristol on Tuesday
The Staves
Paper Aeroplanes
Rae Morris
I would add, that all of the above artists, and many, many, many more I've seen, and bought, I've discovered through BBC 6Music.
Appreciate all of this. Will listen to all of the suggestions over the coming days
Cheers
Just checked out Public Service Broadcasting on the above recommendations. Brilliant album! 🙂
Bit of a left field suggestion but...
The new architects album is on youtube in full now for the metalheads
Only because I can't find my copy at the moment, but I'd heartily recommend PJ Harvey's 'let England shake'
Beck - Morning Phase
one Im looking forward to released in a couple of weeks, Lost Dream by The War on Drugs:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lost-Dream-War-Drugs/dp/B00INE1ZFY/ref=sr_1_1?s=dmusic&ie=UTF8&qid=1394045463&sr=1-1&keywords=lost+in+the+dream
Particularly like. Red Eyes. (you can listen on You Tube)
and I think Im about to press buy on Harlequin Dream by Boy and Bear.
Might be a bit saccharin for some, but then I love Bon Iver & Volcano Choir
War On Drugs [i]Red Eye[/i] is in my Shazam tags list, one of many from 6Music. I saw Boy and Bear as a support in Bristol, trying to remember who they were supporting*. I thought they were interesting, and worth keeping an eye on, and I'm liking what I hear, 6Music again are playing them quite a bit.
Someone else who's getting a lot of attention, and I like a lot, is Luke Sittal-Singh. He's got an EP out, and an album due sometime soon-ish.
I always get to gigs early, partly to be at the front, but also for the support band, because you never know who you'll get.
I saw Blondie supporting Television in Bristol, Dire Straights supporting Talking Heads in Swindon, and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers supporting Nils Lofgren in Bristol.
* It might have been The Staves, at The Trinity, but I'd have to check.
"These four walls" by We Were Promised Jetpacks.
Been out a while. Don't know why I've not heard them before, but love this album.
+ 1 for Public Service Broadcasting.
My lad bought, London Grammar- If you want. I must admit I think it's brilliant so I bought the Vinyl.
OP, if you get the chance to listen, next Monday 6Music are transmitting all new music from 10am to 10pm, so really worth checking out, there should be lots of interesting stuff in there.
TEED
Bonobo
Metronomy
Irie Method
Good things I have seen recently. The first three with albums.
I love wilco Johnson. Part of my past. Saw him a month ago. But new album. Really?
Try a Richard Thompson album
If you like folk music, Fay Hield.
Or, Folky/rocky/psychedelia, Trembling Bells.
PSA: New Public Service Broadcasting single out on YouTube, soon for release (1st Dec) and a new album on it's way.
The album from which this is taken really surprised me;
(Hozier, btw.)
New PSB sounds good, bit more funky. Saw them at Jodrell Bank supporting new order. were great 🙂
Paper Aeroplanes have a new EP out:
The physical version is sold out, only 100 made, (got mine, signed :D), but can be got from Soundcloud, itunes, etc.
Two really beautiful songs, I really love this band.
I'd also recommend Angus & Julia Stone, going to see them in Bristol next month, with The Staves supporting.
Really really looking forward to this gig, both bands/artists are just so good at what they do.
Ariel Pink = Pom Pom
very odd, but annoyingly addictive.
Asaf Avidan - Different Pulses - that's working for me just now.
I was going to download CHVRCHES album the other week, but listened to samples on Amazon and decided against it. Downloaded Foxes, Glorious instead - really like it, if a bit samey throughout....
Damien Rice - My Favourite Faded Fantasy.
Takes alot for me to buy an album these days, this has it.
Not an Album but an EP
[url= http://www.dominorecordco.com/uk/news/25-09-14/jon-hopkins-asleep-versions-ep-10th-november-2014/ ]Jon Hopkins - Asleep Versions[/url]
Perfect for a 30 min headphone meditative decouple from the day
woohoo -just bought a ticket for PSB @ Brizzle in April. Probably my first gig for, ooohhhh, 20 years 😳
Would recommend these three albums to anyone as all are really easy to get into and I think they are outstanding albums:
Real Estate - Atlas
Bill Callahan - Apocalypse
Spoon - They Want My Soul
Couple of the less freaky, less hip-hopity albums I've been enjoying this year:
Glass Animals - Zaba
The Acid - Liminal
