Just off the top of my head I've been listening to the following, all released this year:

Caribou - Swim
Gorillaz - Plastic Beach
Toro Y Moi - Causers of This
Owen Pallet - Heartland
Hot Chip - One Life Stand
Yeasayer - Odd Blood
Four Tet - There Is Love in You
TNPS - Hidden

Seems like an end-of-year favourites list already, and there's still the likes of Rufus Wainwright, LCD Soundsystem to come...

As an aside, does anyone else think that if Plastic Beach ended with the track 'broken' it would be a pretty much perfect album? As it is I feel like the ending is pretty incohesive and overlong
