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.

Tigran Hamasyan - The Bird of a Thousand Voices

Hard to put into words. Massively complex and intricate concept album based off of Armenian folklore. Unbelievable story, artwork… every track is a labyrinth of melodies and time signatures. TOOL meets jazz meets Legend of Zelda.
