It's a bit hard to find stuff that is new that I've actually listened to a lot, but it's not because there isn't new stuff just because I have no new music entering my rotation except from artists I already know, other media or friends recommendations. And music from other media often doesn't end up being on any album.
I'd probably have to go with Nightwish Human :||: Nature
It's a very solid album, but to be honest I'm not sure if I've even listened to any other album in full from past couple years
Jockstrap - Wicked City
I'll second Black Midi - Hellfire obviously
Bobbing - Mixtape
And now I'm faced with the fact that most of my favorite recent albums are at least 5 years old
It's singles, but:
-γAdoγ ε± (show) -γAdoγ New Genesis - ζ°ζ代
Listen to Adoβs Utattemita Album, it is all covers but they are all amazing
I know them all, she's my favorite musical artist. ε―ζγγ¦γγγ (kawaikute gomen) is my favorite of those, I'd say.
Single album by NOFX
KOAN Sound - Led By Ancient Light definitely tops my list.
And a couple of King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard albums, but I've seen them mentioned already! I'm sure there are probably some more that I'm blanking on right now - I'll check my music library and edit this if I think of some more!
I know this is a weird choice but the Lustmord tribute album "The Others" is probably my favorite of the decade so far. The first half is pretty close to the dark ambient Lustmord is known for, but as the album goes on it has some more melodic contributions which are really spectacular.
Ethereal Shroud's "Trisagion" album is really great if you're into metal. Also with regards to metal - the song "Aggressor" by Vredehammer is crazy good, especially the first 2:20 or so, but the full album doesn't quite match it for me.
"Aether" by The Moon and the Nightspirit is wonderful folk music from Hungary, but they've had a few other albums in the past that match it for me.
Saxon - Carpe Diem (2022) is a good one.

All for When (2020) - Anthony Kos
Some new stuff Iβve been jamming on lately
Fiddlehead - Death is nothing to us Scalp - Black Tar Zulu - a new tomorrow Zulu - my peopleβ¦hold on
No particular order to these.
Haken's Fauna was my top album of 2023. An absolute gauntlet of amazing prog metal.
These songs are for anyone sick of earth - Aliah Sheffield
Sample - Earth Is Ghetto
As Above, So Below - Sampa The Great
Sample - Let Me Be Great
