Default Good overlooked albums of 2006 - with links to tracks

Here are 10 albums from this year that aren't getting much rep on the boards. I think they're all pretty sweet, and have linked to the top tracks on youtube or another flash based player. Tell me what you think.

Band of Horses - Everything All The Time
Folksy kinda stuff, heavy on the reverb. Similar to My Morning Jacket.
Listen to The Funeral

Cursive - Happy Hollow
Indie, emo, punk, and ska roots shown in one track.
Listen to Dorothy at Forty

Danielson - Ships
[censored] up pop with all kinds of instruments.
Listen to Cast It At the Setting Sail

I'm From Barcelona - Let Me Introduce My Friends
Ensemble pop with horns and bells and [censored]. Think Architecure in Helsinki.
Watch We're From Barcelona (YouTube)

Mew - And the Glass Handed Kites
It's kinda brooding and haunting music.
Listen to Chinaberry Tree

Phoenix - It's Never Been Like This Before
Straight up indie pop. Awesome.
Long Distance Call

Pipettes - We Are the Piettes
Chiefly British. Homage to 60s girl pop with an indie twist.
Pull Shapes (YouTube)

Sunset Rubdown - Shut Up I am Dreaming
[censored] up. From the guys that brought you Wolf Parade.
Stadiums and Shrines II

The Elected - Sun, Sun, Sun
Folksy, reminds me of Sufjan at times.
Not Going Home

TV on the Radio - Return to Cookie Mountain
Driving percussion with a little bit of shoegazing.
Wolf Like Me

EDITED links for most tracks, should be a direct link to mp3s now
