yeah, I know, there's a typo in his surname.
can't believe it's still not possible to edit your own posts on here yet.
My 5 would be
Pet Sounds, The Beach Boys
Hunky Dory, David Bowie
Rattlesnake, Lloyd Cole & The Commotions
Funerals, Arcade Fire
I Am Easy To Find, The National
Saw the last one at the launch concert at Royal Festival Hall and own it on triple coloured vinyl.
Beach Boys dont seem to be highly regarded these days. They had some truly brilliant songs though.

jean michel jarred oxygene & oxygene 7-13
I know that's two separate albums, but you can't listen to oxygene without following it up with oxygene 7-13
ooh, just noticed oxygene 3 album was released end of 2016. can't believe I've not heard anything about that till now, guess I know what i'm gonna be listening to later.....

That's the trick of the question. Anyone can give a list of albums they think are great, but to choose just 5 of them makes you think harder.

exactly, and 50% of respondents failed to limit to 5 and just listed their favorite albums

I saw your list up there and actually remembered you were not very keen on Trouble Will Find Me. I doubt you were into the latest but I'm curious what you think about Sleep Well Beast.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well remembered!
There's some great songs on TWFM - some of my all time favourites by them. I Should Live In Salt... Pink Rabbits... Sea Of Love...
But for a long time I had a real problem with This Is The Last Time and Graceless, and it kinda blew the record for me. Actually in recent times I've come to quite like Graceless, so it's not a problem at all now, as it's a lot easier to deal with now that it's not two songs following each other.
Sleep Well Beast was a disappointment though. Again there are some great songs on it, but overall it doesn't work for me as an album. Maybe it'll make sense one day, and I'm totally open to that still happening, but even when I saw them play live on that tour, I ended up coming away disappointed - I've seen them 4-5 times now, and it was the only time I've not enjoyed it.
In fairness to the show, I had just seen Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds a few nights earlier, and they were so so good. I'd seen them a couple of times previously and really enjoyed seeing them. But the Skeleton Tree shows... they took it up so many levels. Easily in my top 5 favourite concerts of all time
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Actually TWFM has grown into a stonewall classic for me, up there with their best but weakest of the 4. SWB also took so long to grow on me but it is a 8.5/10 now; the only song I do not like from it is the closer

If I was to post the albums I think are great I would have posted 100 not 10. I decided to post 10 from what would be a pretty diverse list encompassing quite a number of genres.
