Maybe I should have waited a bit as this is just intended as an accessory to Mellotron Storms' poll Zero II, but I love these years for music and already had prepared lists. To me the more new active such thematically related topics going on at the same time often the better (with completely different choices). His has at least two that surely would make my poll, especially Radiohead's Kid A (love the album), but the idea is not to cover any of the same choices.

I have added the RateYourMusic descriptions and if they are in PA or not. Two of these are under consideration for PA.

This list is based on what I am most interested in these days, so please excuse what to you might seem obvious omissions from my list that are not in John's recent O's poll which this is meant to complement. My Awesome Prog lists are much longer and those are very incomplete based on what I know and like. This is pretty Sufjan Stevens heavy, but I love Sufjan Stevens music.

This is a multiple votes enabled poll, vote for up to five (or more) albums in the poll.

2000:
Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven (Post Rock)
Broadcast - The Noise Made by People (Neo-Psychedelia, Indietronica, Dream/Ambient Pop) (not in PA)
Bohren & der Club of Gore - Sunset Mission (Dark Jazz)
Pram - The Museum of Imaginary Animals (Neo-Psychedelia, Art Pop, Ambient Pop)
Juana Molina - Segundo (Folktronica, Singer-Songwriter, Art Pop) (not in PA)
Boris - Flood (Post-Rock, Drone)
Air - The Virgin Suicides (Film Score, Ambient Pop, Art Rock) (not in PA)    
Ulver - Perdition City (Music to an Interior Film) (Trip Hop, Electronic...)
Sufjan Stevens - A Sun Came (or first released in 1999) (Singer-Songwriter, Indie Folk, Indie Rock) (not in PA)     
Boards of Canada - In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country (IDM, Downtempo) (not in PA EP)

2010:

Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz (Art/Progressive Pop, Indietronica) (not in PA)
Sufjan Stevens - All Delighted People EP (Chamber Pop, Progressive Folk) (not in PA)
Joanna Newsom - Have One on Me (Chamber Folk, Progressive Folk) (not in PA)
Kayo Dot - Coyote (Avant-Prog, Experimental Rock, Post-Rock)
Swans - My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky (Experimental Rock, Post-Rock)
Susanne Sundfør - The Brothel (Art Pop, Electronic)
Beach House - Teen Dream (Dream Pop, Indie Pop, Neo-Psychedelia) (not in PA)
Shibusashirazu - Shibu-yotabi (Experimental Big Band, Jazz-Rock/Fusion)
Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest (Neo-Psychedelia, Indie Rock) (not in PA)

2020:
Ciśnienie - The Brass Album (with Lod 9) (Post-Rock, Experimental Rock)
The Necks - Three (Avant-Garde Jazz, Dark Jazz) (not in PA)
Sufjan Stevens - The Ascension (Indietronica, Art Pop) (not in PA)
Magick Brother & Mystic Sister - Magick Brother & Mystic Sister (Psychedelic Rock, Jazz-Rock, Neo-Canterbury)
Anna von Hausswolff - All Thoughts Fly (Drone, Minimalism, Holy Minimalism)
Uboa - The Flesh of the World (Darkwave, Noise, Ambient, Post-Industrial)
Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Sometimes I think the bands & albums listed in these polls are a complete fabrication... I don't know any of them. I guess I'm just not an adventurous listener. I wish I had the time to research them and get to know them.

The Broadcast and Cisnienie albums belong to my absolute favourites and don't have votes yet, how come? Anyway, I'll change that. Focusing on more albums with zero votes yet, I love the Pram album (first I heard of them), All Thoughts Fly, and The Ascension (the Sufjan Stevens fanclub hasn't been out voting yet it seems. )

Normally voting for only things with zero votes doesn't get me very far, but this is an excellent collection of albums.

I wish Cisniene was less obscure. If post-rocky epic crescendos are one's thing then it's a band to try.

I have not listened to much Sufjan Stevens between the releases of Carrie & Lowell and Javelin, but really like The Ascension. I rather feel like that and that period is underrated at RYM, and that early SS is seriously underappreciated. For instance, I love Enjoy Your Rabbit, but I understand not everyone wants to listen to music that sounds like a dentist drilling your teeth -- just the noise can be painful, let alone such associations. A Sun Came has wonderful music, but also has the noise. Of course I appreciate that 2010 period much more than you. To me he is awesome across his career.

Shared this before, but I made a playlist sometime back with four tracks from each of the albums I knew:
