A bit late with this week's releases but there are new albums tomorrow from Anna of the North, Isobel Waller-Bridge, Melody's Echo Chamber, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (live), TEED (formerly Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs), Zac Brown Band, Jerkcurb, The Sha La Das and Olof Arnalds.
Jerkcurb was out last week I think
 
Well, it's fair to say that the Dove Ellis album (also out this week) lives up to the across the board magnificent reviews it's had. The Buckley comparisons are obviously valid (vocally) but this kid offers something a little different (more warmth maybe). A massive talent, probably debut of the year.

Aside from that, the final Saints album is great, the Wedding Present EP is ace (think it's all car themed), the Nick Cave live album is a gem, Melody's Echo Chamber seems a little slight, Glyders are ace (and new to me), Olof Arnalds' album is a thing of beauty and the Jerkcurb album (which was out last week) is good. Got a fair few other things to listen to, mostly things reviewed in the new Uncut.
 
Yeah actually I need the AOTY as I have been very poor at listening to new music this year. Might have to set myself a similar challenge as I did in 23 when I did a new album a week, with no excuses.

Bringing in a small top 5:
- Caroline 2 - caroline
- belong - Jay Som
- You are the morning - jasmine4.t
- Getting Killed - Geese (probably undoubtedly my record of the year)
- Eusexia - FKA Twigs

Good list!
 
I have less overlap with the main thread contributors, but my top 5 is as follows:

Winona Fighter - Apologies to the Chef
Ben Kweller - Cover the Mirrors
Sunny War - Armageddon in a Summer Dress
Brogeal - Tuesday Paper Club
Skinny Lister - Songs from the Yonder
Not heard them all, will check out thanks

Brogeal is rather good!
