In the ilk of the below: Bruises - Chairlift Tin Man - Animal Kingdom Black Heart, Blue Eyes - Tigers That Talked Orange Shirt - Discovery All The Kings Men - Wild Beasts Cystalized - The XX Heartbreak - Magistrates Sweet Disposition - The Temper Trap Evening / Morning - Bombay Bicycle Club Little Lion Man - Mumford & Sons The Warning - Hot Chip Trying to just have the one song from each band.
