I can be alone with my thoughts, too:
A Winged Victory For The Sullen | All Our Friends Are Vampires – More from Stars Of The Lid break-off/successors. Which is to say: beautiful and precise complex drone/neoclassical
Tim Hecker | No Highs – Melodic, haunting, noisy, similar to his mid-career stuff

Melodic stuff:
Loma Prieta | Last – Incredibly lush screamo
Sisters | Leecheater – Depressive heavy rock/shoegaze; reminiscent of early-half Failure
Cave In | Until Your Heart Stops – Worthy reissue of metalcore classic w/ totally wild demos/b-sides
Gridlink | Coronet Jupiter – Rapturous tech grind

Mycorrhizae | The Great Filtration – Fast, catchy, no-filler black metal
Stress Positions | Harsh Reality – Best hardcore album I've heard in years
Grant The Sun | Voyage – Post-metal mishmash, some combo of Hum, Isis, Meshuggah
Jerome's Dream | The Gray In Between – Screamo way better than expected

New Gridlink is almost certainly grind AOTY. Hugely impressive and moves in some surprising directions. Tech death fans might enjoy it too, though I'd imagine Chang's vocals might be a considerable deterrent.
