modern music of the city

Let the drunken masses work themselves into a lather with their Beyonces and Justin Timberlakes.  The music I am looking forward to this year are:

James Blake (Overgrown) and Vampire Weekend (Modern Vampires Of The City) are my top two for sure. 
Shout Out Louds - the more I hear Blue Ice the more I look forward to Shout Out Louds' Optica.
Phoenix (Bankrupt!) -  I can listen to Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix forever.
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible, Funeral, The Suburbs are all instant classics - let's make it four out of four.
La Roux, Sally Shapiro and Little Boots - to fulfill my euro-disco jonesing.
Kid Cudi - to fulfill my hip hop quota.
Hurts - my new Depeche Mode + Pet Shop Boys.
MGMT - I heard it's experimental but I prefer Oracular Spectacular.
and Postal Service's 10th Anniversary Reissue of Give Up - would rather have a new cd but looking forward to a couple of unheard tracks nonetheless.
