Best album of the last ten years

Talking to some lads in the office about what musical legacy the last decade 'noughties'-/shudder/ will leave. It seems as though in the era of myspace, downloads etc. we can name plenty of good tracks but not many standout albums.

Give me your one favorite album from 2000-present.

Gotta be Muse - Black Holes and Revelations.

Balki 'll back me up on this.

so, just to be clear youre on about era-defining albums right?
Got plenty personal favourites but Im struggling too........

Bright Eyes - I'm wide awake it's morning.

anything by radiohead

^ prolly right there in terms of influence, radiohead,
I would say 'Original Pirate....' by Streets is up there on influence.
