Must Buy Albums of 2011 (So Far)

Its not very often on here that we talk about albums, except for awarding one the best of the month spot.
I guess that's mainly because we know nobody wants to spend their time reading a page long review full of analogies and metaphors describing the tracks when they could be doing something useful.
But there's been some really great releases of late and I thought it would be a nice idea to make a little list of some LPs from 2011 that have been particularly great and not received enough support from us on here.
(In no particular order).
