So many good ones. A Deeper Understanding is a really really good shout. Absolutely immense album... Shame the most recent one is bobbins in comparison. For me, in no particular order:

Caribou - Suddenly
Moderat - III
Cut Copy - Freeze, Melt
Tool - Fear Inoculum
Julia Bondar - Modular Techno (live)

If you like techno, I can't recommend the Julia Bondar album enough.
 
The five that spring to mind for me are-
Diamondhead - Coffin Train
Tygers of Pan Tang _ Ritual
Volbeat - Servants of The Mond
Saxon - carpe Diem
Yello - Point
 
Phoebe Bridgers - Stranger in the Alps (2017)
Caroline Polachek - Pang (2019)
Charli XCX - how i'm feeling now (2020) <- a rather embarrassing guilty pleasure :p
