Only 4 albums in it for me , "Whatever People say I am ... " , "First Impressions of Earth" "Sams Town" and "Boys and Girls in America" , I think the Arctic Monkeys will just get my vote though
Bob Dylan - Modern Times
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
Ali Farka Toure - Savane
Hot Chip - The Warning
The Strokes - Last Impressions Of Earth
Muse - Black Holes & Other Revelations
Isobel Campbell & Mark Lonegan

Gnarls Barkley - St Elsewhere
Other
Arcade Fire romped the 2004 poll, whilst Gorillaz just look like shading the 2005 one (there's a few mins left at time of posting before that poll ends).
Anyway here's the picks,
Voting Opens Once Videos Are Up
Bob Dylan - When The Deal Goes Down - Modern Times
Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor - Whatever People Say I Am....
Ali Farke Toure - Ai Du - Savane (Ai Du didn't come from this album, couldn't find a youtube clip from Savane)

Have to go with the Arctic Monkeys - "Whatever people say...........".
It will most likely appear in most short lists for best album / most influential album of the decade.
The album emphatically justified and capitalised on the initial hype of them being "internet hyped band - Arctic Monkeys".
Honourable mentions to:
The Stokes - First impressions.....
Yeah Yeah Yeah's - Show your bones
Quoting years at random since 1975
Republic Of Loose or Prince for me. I'll decide when the poll is up.

Oops, two mistakes on the poll, The Strokes album is the First and not the Last impression of Earth, and Isobel and Mark's CD is called the Ballad Of The Broken Seas...soz
Isobel Campbell & Mark Lonegan - Come Walk With Me - Ballad Of The Broken Seas
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion - Show Your Bones
Gnarls Barkley - Crazy - St.Elsewhere

Your making these up as you go along aren't you!!
Arctic Monkeys for numerous reasons. One being the song "The View From the Afternoon," the best drunk-texting song ever: "You can pour your heart out around three o'clock/When the two-for-one's undone the writer's block."
Epic stuff.
Other for me (for the first time):
Eyes Open- Snow Patrol
Back To Black - Amy Winehouse
Imago - The Butterfly Effect
Your making these up as you go along aren't you!!
(Sshhh! It makes me look hip).
I could have added a few more, and that would be the grand total of 2006 albums I own. 2007'2 list won't be much longer.
