Kaputt is my album of the decade, just ahead of Art Angels.

iibh, I'd vote for Bon Iver, but I went with Hell on Heels because it deserves way more recognition than it's going to get.
Space is Only Noise is another ridiculously awesome album that I worry will be under-recognized.
avid Comes to Life is epic but I rarely go back to it.
The original 4 was better than the reshuffled version, imo.

I didn't vote for it, but the Weeknd's House of Balloons is still my favorite from him - it may not have my favorite singles, but it's the one I like most as a whole. (Also glad he was able to re-issue it with the missing samples reinstated.)

Black Up's really good too. I need to give that another listen.

i still jam "lyf" and "we bros" from this album. considered a strategic vote for it in this poll. after the dust settled, my analysis is that they probably never intended to make a second one. ellery screaming "WASSUP MUTHAFUCKAHH!" during their letterman performance was very (chef's kiss)

45 - Julianna Barwick The Magic Place 0

aw, forgot to vote. big year for me, so many tunes I associate with so many moments, but still nothing quite like The Magic Place.

Still disappointed Wild Flag wasn't included. I play that more than anything else from 2011.
