Released in early 2010 Yeasayer's sophomore album is arguably the best Experimental Rock/Pop album of the year. Odd Blood is clearly influenced by a more Pop style than their previous album right down to the lyrics yet can still be classified as an Experimental Rock piece. The incredible instrumentals seem like they could fill a room with their cool ambient vibes and energetic sections and they will certainly keep you listening just to hear what variations and distinct sounds will creep up in each track. Tracks like "O.N.E", "Madder Red", "Mondegreen" and "Ambling Alp" are just catchy and that counts for a lot in this certainly unique album; granted certain tracks such as "The Children" and "Rome" can be quite odd and honestly surprising if you keep listening but they do strangely tie in with the experimental nature of the album. In this budding genre of music Yeasayer can claim the top spot even having some of their songs hit the mainstream to general acclaim.
