Band of Horses should be mentioned.

I think I'd go with The National because the albums are also my three favorite records of theirs.

Other bands I thought about:
Arcade Fire
Portishead
Radiohead
Beach House

Counting solo artists:
Joanna Newsom
Fiona Apple

Tom Waits. Especially if Orphans counts. Hands down.

I could get behind this one.

That last record lets their team down, not because it was bad but because it was not amazing.

Totally agree.

Also, zebster, I'm listening to The Woods right now because of this thread. Such a monster record. You might be right about your OP, but I've only ever heard this one album by them.

Don't fret, though. Imma buy their new one on vinyl when it drops.

Here's a tune from the record before The Woods. It's pretty great:

Bad as me was fairly disappointing

I really love it. I'd say if it's disappointing at all it's only because Waits set the bar so high for himself. And Orphans and Real Gone are both just flat outstanding. Bad As Me is many other artist's best album. For Waits it's the top of the middle of the pack.
