Very nice list, lots of great records here! Just keep expanding your chart, I'd like to come back and see how it's changed once more albums are added.
Have you heard Lonerism by Tame Impala? You should definitely give it a listen, I'm sure you'd enjoy it based on the albums here. ShadowColossi gave it a great review that made me reevaluate the album on his chart here: http://www.besteveralbums.com/thechart.php?c=29023
You might also like Good Morning Spider by Sparklehorse. An incredible album made in surreal circumstances (read the Wikipedia page!)
Still don't understand why so few people have heard of it.
