I am so happy to see Okkervil River's 'The Silver Gymnasium' get some attention. It is one of their finest works to date.
I also loved Deerhunter's 'Monomania', BellX1's 'Chop Chop', Mark Lanegan's 'Imitations' and Kanye West's 'Yeezus' (as well as The National and Vampire Weekend, as others have listed).
Also, of note, Toad The Wet Sprocket released their first new record in many years 'New Constellation'. Not their best work, but great to have them back.
