That Tame Impala album is really really good, but I'm going with Steven Wilson for this one! HCE is my favorite SW/PT release.

4. Breznev Fun Club - Il Misantropo Felice
5. Tomeka Reid Quartet - Tomeka Reid Quartet
6. Jaga Jazzist - Starfire
7. Tricot - A N D
8. Gum - Glamorous Damage
9. Homunculus Res - Come Si Diventa Ciò Che Si Era
10. Ryley Walker - Primrose Green
11. John Zorn - Simulacrum
12. Chon - Grow
13. Orthodox - Demonio Del Mediodía
14. Venetian Snares - Thank You For Your Consideration
15. Deadly Orgone Radiation - Power Trips
16. Battles - La Di Da Di
17. Kamasi Washington - The Epic
18. Alex Ward Quintet - Glass Shelves And Floor
19. Ozric Tentacles - Technicians Of The Sacred

I'm glad you mentioned Nice Beaver, I like that one a lot. And I went with Anekdoten as well.
There's at least five on here I rate really high. Some favs not mentioned...
Reve General- Howl
Needlepoint-Aimless Mary
Vak- Aedividea
Nik Turner-Space Fusion Odyssey


Reve General is excellent, saw that performed live

My winner in the given year was Dear Hunter, again! Act IV was even better than Act V. Leprous' Congregation is a very, very close second. 

Outside this poll, some favourites from the year:
Corpo Mente - s/t
Joanna Newsom - Divers
Torres - Sprinter

Huh. Guess 2015 wasn't a huge year for me. (Sprinter I even only encountered for the first time last year)

Sufjan Stevens and William D. Drake > Jaga Jazzist, Anekdoten.  I have bought my first Oneohtrix Point Never album based on your recommendation Greg, and I love it. Need to listen to more of their stuff. The 2015 one I don't know yet. Vote for Carrie and Lowell, but could well have been Revere Reach.
