So you make a list of 30 albums...
and you manage to exclude Adele and Kate Bush? I'm going to assume you're just biased against both of them. 
Those two and Coeur de Pirate's Blonde are my favourite three (and very nearly only three, I must admit) new albums of 2011.

Kate Bush sounds promising but I didn't get that record until last week.
I easily could have made top 50, too
