So far for 2010 I have heard the following - I've bolded the ones that might tick your boxes:
Omega by Asia
All in Good Time by Barenaked Ladies
Here Lies Love by David Byrne and Brian Eno
Ain't No Grave by Johnny Cash
ABCDEFG by Chumbawumba
Trans-Continental Hustler by Gogol Bordello
Plastic Beach by Gorillaz
Valleys of Neptune by Jimi Hendrix
Heaven if Whenever by The Hold Steady
Empire and Love by The Imagined Village
Night Train EP by Keane
Hang Cool Teddy Bear by Meat Loaf
The House by Katie Melua
Congratulations by MGMT
My Best Friend is You by Kate Nash
Together by The New Pornographers
Of The Blue Color Of The Sky by OK Go
Immersion by Pendulum
Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Soldier of Love by Sade
Slash by Slash
The Movie Songbook by Sharleen Spiteri
Beachcomber's Windowsill by Stornoway
Outbursts by Turin Brakes
All Days are Nights by Rufus Wainright
Wake Up The Nation by Paul Weller
Under Great White Northern Lights by The White Stripes
If I had to pick a couple of favourites, they'd be
Here Lies Love - which is odd, but great.
Beachcomber's Windowsill - a new classic; this will be one of the albums people look back on in years to come either as "First of a great band" or "Whatever happened to hem after such a great debut".

Overhead, the Albatross hangs motionless upon the air,
And deep beneath the rolling waves,
In labyrinths of Coral Caves,
The Echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand;
And everthing is Green and Submarine
