    of all people, Paul Simon's new album "Surprise"

    Produced by, and with sonic landscapes by, Brian Eno (one of my all-time overall favorite artists)

    "who is going to love you when your looks are gone?" (just one of the many great hooks)

    Don't prejudge this... really. Kneejerk.

    My musical tastes are pretty wide, but also pretty discriminating. This one will stand the test of time, I believe.

    Tell me something of more lasting quality you have heard lately. I will listen to it.

    AFI-Sing the sorrow will last the test of time
    and so will the Refused's the Shape of Punk to Come

    I also belive Alkaline Trio's- From here to Infirmary will last the test of time for melodic punk lovers.

    Check them out Geo, and then tell me about Paul Simon. ;)

    afi/alkaline trio not so much though that refused album is incredibly good. quite a few on your other list also. ghostface's new album is great too.

    best album ever = neutral milk hotel - in the aeroplane over the sea
    best album last year = sufjan stevens - illinois

    a few other random albums from the last few years that are excellent:
    man man - man in the blue turban with a face/six demon bag
    unicorns - who will cut our hair when we're gone
    dizzee rascal - boy in da corner/showtime/run the road comp
    mirah - c'mon miracle
    new pornographers - mass romantic/twin cinema (not so much electric version)
    mia/diplo - piracy funds terrorism
    mclusky - mclusky do dallas
    lightning bolt - wonderful rainbow + first 2 tracks of hypermagic mountain
    caribou - milk of human kindness
    joanna newsom - milk-eyed mender
