Yeah man NOMAD is wicked. A proper journey of an album with some serious longevity.

Best for me have been Dusk & Blackdown - Margins Music, Grievous Angel - Belief Is The Enemy (tho could do with being a bit shorter) and Starkey - Ephemeral Exhibits.
If you've got any interest in grimier stuff check out Trim - Soulfood Vol. 3 and Lil' Nasty - Hungry Season too
