Here are two that I don't think have been mentioned.

Bonnie Prince Billy: Master & Everyone.
Bon Iver: For Emma, Forever Ago.

I'm not actually sure what genre they fit into; probably indie/ folk but they don't sound like any folk music I've heard. Both have the stripped-back sound of Springsteen's brilliant Nebraska album; bleak, simple, acoustic pieces.

Bonnie Prince Billy's "I See A Darkness" is a belter too but not as great as Master & Everyone.

Out of interest, Bon Iver is a play on words; think French for 'good winter'. On the same theme, since moving to Italy I've discovered the origins of Carnival. Carne is Italian for meat, Vale means Farewell, so 'farewell meat' ie what many do during Lent.

I'll get my coat.
