Beavers!
For what it's worth my favourite album of 2007 was Folklore's deeply imaginative 'The Ghost Of H.W. Beaverman' which proved to be a stunning tale that weaved and bobbed like Cassius Clay in his prime.
Cockroaches!
39) The E.L.F. - Cockroaches ‘the thinking kids' JCB song’
Eagles AND Seagulls!
35) Eagle Seagull - I'm Sorry But I'm Beginning To Hate Your Face ‘bulbous basslines, Eli Mardock's curved pronouncements and the general sense of instrumental abandonment’
Ravens!
32) Ravens and Chimes - General Lafayette! You Are Not Alone ‘a soothing ointment for ears fatigued by daytime radio’
Cats!
29) Dan Deacon - The Crystal Cat ‘put this sigue sigue in your spudnik’
For cryptozoologists, a Phoenix!
27) Ai Phoenix - You And I ‘shuffles along with its socks around its ankles’
Bears!
24) Seabear - Libraries ‘the melodies practically levitate in the air’
Caribou!
19) Caribou - Melody Day ‘colours your summer as well as those far off days when sand will be replaced by a mountain of fluffy snow’
Horses!
17) Band of Horses - Is There A Ghost ‘the most possessed song the bearded ones have ever written’
Generic Birds!
14) Andrew Bird - Heretics ‘so devoid of tired indie clichés it could almost create a genre on all its own. MozArt Rock anyone?’
Hippopotamuses (Hippopotami?)
13) Videohippos - Lazer Jet ‘a frantic exhibition of light and sound’
Pandas!
11) Panda Bear - Take Pills ‘hang in there during those misleading warped vinyl early moments because the surf will soon be up and the good times will definitely be rolling.’
