ILM - Keeping Track of Best Albums of 2014 (so far)

Hopefully this isn't frowned upon (and if it's not, hopefully there isn't a similar thread out there that I'm unaware of). Not sure if this will possibly ruin any surprises when it comes to the final eoy album countdown. But I need recommendations. For those who keep track of such things, can you let me know what some of your favorite albums so far are? Like a top five or top ten? It doesn't have to be in any order.

I'm a little desperate this year for recs, as I've had very little free-time to read about/listen too many 2014 releases. Here's shortlist of what I've enjoyed so far (but note that I'm not looking for music that correlates with my taste):

The War on Drugs - Lost in the Dream
Real Estate - Atlas
Strand of Oaks - Heal
Kalle Mattson - Someday, The Moon will be Gold
Mark McGuire - Along the Way
Fennesz - Becs

What says you?
