Swans - The Seer

(Here's the wide margin by which The Seer claims the #1 spot. The rest are in no particular order.)

Pinback - Information Retrieved

Storm Corrosion - S/T

Murder By Death - Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon

EP:

Agalloch - Faustian Echoes

I can already see The Seer being my album of the decade.

Go Radio - Close The Distance - great music, extremely nice in person.

Yellowcard - Southern Air - They're always in the shadow of Ocean Avenue, but this album is great... Rivertown Blues... perfect.

The Lumineers - S/T

Imagine Dragons - Night Visions.

Paper Route - The Peace of Wild Things

I could probably name more... but these are standouts to me

Some stuff that jumped out to me...

Quakers - Quakers

Skeleton Key - Gravity is the Enemy

Black Moth Super Rainbow - Cobra Juicy

Dreamend - And the Tears Washed...

Why? - Mumps etc

Two Fingers - Stunt Rhythms

Deerhoof - Breakup Song

Billy Martin & Wil Blades - Shimmy

Ben Folds Five - The Sound of the Life of the Mind

Holy Other - Held

I'm thinking I need to checkout The Swans and GYPSY based on what I'm seeing here.
