Mogwai - The Hawk is Howling
 
 
 Me likey.
 
 
 A lot.

Elephant Micah - Exiled Magicians
 
 
 Decent alt-country.

Russian Circles - Station
 
 
 Post-rock with metal leanings similar to Pelican but not as anthemic or heavy. Very good if you're into that sort of thing.
 
 Edit: second half of the album got a little more anthemic and less metal resulting in a slightly more EITS-ish sound.

Horse Feathers - House With No Home
 
 
 Iron and Wine and Bon Iver fans would probably like this.

Bitcrush - Epilogue In Waves
 
 
 Jaguar, I can see this ending up as one of your favorite albums of the year.
 
 
 Post-rocky shoegaze or shoegazy post-rock; kind of similar to Alcest.

Pol Pot`s Pleasure Penthouse

Oren Ambarchi - In The Pendulum's Embrace
 
 
 How'd I miss this until now? Came out last year.
 
 
 Drone-doom similar to that of the new incarnation of Earth but darker and more minimal.

I dunno...I didn't hear much of that post-rock formula that's been beaten to death by hundreds of bands including them on there at all.
 
 Thought it sounded fresher.

Kyte - Kyte
 
 
 Not exactly my bag but I'm surprised I haven't seen this band talked up on here before.

 "for your pleasure"
 
 not a huge roxy music fan, but this album is pretty amazing, save "the bogus man"

Couple things I'm enjoying lately:
 
 Dirty on Purpose "Hallelujah Sirens" - Kind of shoe-gazey epic pop. Reminds me of Cedars.
 
 Truckasaurus "Tea Parties, Guns and Valor" - Kitschy electronica made entirely with computers and games from the 1980s. Seemed too rinky-dink at first but it's pretty catchy.
 
 annnnnd....
 
 the new Metallica album - there are a lot of things I don't like about it, but... I do like it overall and I'm glad that they've returned to the epic jams with multiple guitar solos. James Hetfield continues his fucking awful singing style from the 90s, with a "-YAH!" added to the end of every goddamn line. But other than that, it's solid and is growing on me after 4-5 spins.

This is one of my favorite albums to listen to during the fall.  Try listening to this while driving down the B/W Parkway when the leaves are changing and the temperature is a pleasant 60 degrees.  It's pretty awesome.
