Best albums of 2010-11

[sonicdiscourse]

I'm compiling a list of the best albums of the decade to date, set to be finished at the end of the year. I was wondering what albums are more compelling to listen to than others (i.e. somethings magazines missed, or stuff on there that I should definitely zero in on). Furthermore, what were overrated albums from those years that I don't need to check out right this minute. Albums I've heard from those years that I REALLY liked are as follows.

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
A$AP Rocky - Live.Love.A$AP
Battles - Gloss Drop
Best Coast - Crazy For You
Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
