Dredg - Catch Without Arms: Not Dredg's best album. Some songs kind of irk me, the lyrics are astonishing lame in parts (Not That Simple is just... ugh), and it just seems a little more uninspired overall. It's hard to live up to El Cielo, but this is almost sell-out territory. That being said, I still like the album, and hopefully, because of it's more mainstream feel, it will get them some more fans.
The Mars Volta - De-loused in the Comatorium: I had the MP3s of this album, but felt the need to actually own it. Awesome album. I can't really describe it, but your probably all familiar with it, whether you like it or not.
Ratatat - Ratatat: Sort of techno-guitar music. It sounds like Mega Man. It majorly rocks out though, video game music for my life. Rocking stuff.
Sonic Youth - Sonic Nurse: The first time I took a listen to Sonic Youth (yeah, I'm not really into the indie scene all that much). It's a good album, though not really my thing. Pretty solid stuff, and I have a friend that I know will like it.
