Great list and more stuff I'm not familiar with!
So much I'm looking forward to in 2013:
Suede, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Goldfrapp, The Joy Formidable, QOTSA, Ladytron and new Placebo if rumours are true

Metric, Garbage and er .......

I can't either - 10 that I actually loved at least - plenty that were ok or I merely liked - Love Ladyhawke but Anxiety wasn't amazing like her debut. Skunk Anansie are one of my absolute favourite bands and I'm still not feeling Black Traffic much at all
Been listening to a lot of music that wasn't released last year. Got into Ladytron and Siouxsie Soux in particular in a big way

It's funny, I honestly couldn't think of many if any others that I'd even have considered shortlisting, but at the same time those ten absolutely had to be on there.
Both Ladytron & Siouxsie have been on my to do list far too long. Have to say my buy of the year though is Sleater-Kinney's One Beat (2002). It's like when rock met riot grrrl met punk met pop... there literally isn't a song on there I haven't fallen in love with wholeheartedly - one on one day, then another the next - in fact I feel like it's the first time I've found an album which could actually have me fully focussed cover to cover.

As you guys know Garbage took up so much of my time in 2012, I didn't have much energy to focus on other music but I remembered a few others worth mentioning:
Jack White - Blunderbuss
St Etienne - Words and Music by St Etienne
Django Django - Debut
Blood Red Shoes - in time to voices
Heard some Screaming Females as well who are good
Just got some Cocteau Twins records - why has it taken me so long to discover their music I don't know
Siouxsie and the Banshees are amazing on a level I still can't comprehend - any modern female singer who is mildly alternative owes a debt to her
Ladytron are stunning - all their records are great I can't recommend them highly enough - if you like Metric etc I'd recommend Witching Hour and Velocifero
