Only one right now to my knowledge-I don't pay a lot of attention to release dates-is Eluveitie - Everything Remains as it Never Was.

LCD Soundsystem -This Is Happening
Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me
Gil Scott Heron - I'm New Here
The National - High Violet

My favorite of the lot has to be This Is Happening. By far his best album to date!

Despite the disappointment of Massive Attack's 2003 album 100th Window, I still had high hopes. Which is why Heligoland got my disappointment of the year award. I did enjoy Tricky's Mixed Race much better, despite the fact that he isn't close to his 90s A-game either.
 
Albums I missed before I made the lists
No matter how hard I try, I always miss possible top 100 contenders. Here's some good albums I've heard in the week between Xmas and NY's.
  • Chico Mann - Analog Drift (Wax Poetics)
  • Ceremony - Rocket Fire (Killer Pimp)
  • 65daysofstatic - We Were Exploding Anyway (Phantom Sound)
  • Tamikrest - Adagh (Glitterhouse)
  • Yellow Swans - Going Places (Type)
  • Current 93 - Baalstorm, Sing Omega (Coptic Cat)
  • Alasdair Roberts & Friends Too Long in This Condition (Drag City)
  • Calle 13 - Entre los que Quieran (Sony U.S. Latin)
  • Choc Quib Town - Oro (Nacional Records)
  • Nico Muhly - I Drink The Air Before Me (Decca)
  • The Posies - Blood/Candy (Rykodisc)
  • Jonathan Richman - O Moon, Queen Of Night On Earth (Vapor)
  • Jaguar Love - Hologram Jams (Fat Possum)
