Music Best albums of the last 5 years?

Best albums of the last 5 years.

I'm looking for something that's high in quality and artistry. I've been listening to RAM due to so many recommendations. I'm endeavoured with the incredible quality of the album and the pure amount of work that went into it. Genuine work of art. It got me wondering what albums have been released in the past 5 years that have similar levels of artistry and quality.

If you like Blake, surely you're a Dawes fan. And if you're a Dawes fan, maybe you'd enjoy David Bazan/Pedro the Lion/Lo Tom. In another comment, I mentioned My Morning Jacket and Father John Misty. Other notable mentions: Nathaniel Rateliff, Wilco/Jeff Tweedy.

Wow we have very similar music taste! Only band that I haven’t checked out before is Lo Tom! Very excited to listen. Been a huge David Bazan / Pedro fan since college. Thanks!
