Acoustic Ladyland - Skinny Grin. I miss this band although Melt Yourself Down are still going I think. Anyway, nice mixture of punk/rock sensibilities and modern jazz

13 & God - S/T

Laurie Anderson - Big Science

The Associates - Sulk

Then onto more exploration of albums from this decade on Spotify:

Gnod - Easy to build, hard to destroy. Yes

Glass Beams - Mirage EP. Yes

Ghost Poet - I grow tired but dare not fall asleep (again). You know where you are with GP albums. Great production reminiscent of a modern Tricky. It's a yes

Georgia Ruth - Mai. No

Gary Rostock - Deep state. Initially a yes.

Dry Cleaning - New Long Leg - Stumpwork. Like the idea of this band more than their output. She does come up with some great lyrics, but doesn't quite do it for me

The Barefoot Bandit - Hello Welcome. No

Fucked Up - Year of the horse I-IV. Yes

Fontaines DC - Skinty Fia. No

The Smile - Light for attracting attention. No

Palm - Nicks and grazes. No

Gilla Band - Most Normal. No

Black Country, New Road - Ants from up here. Nope. Maybe if this was their first album I'd think differently

Animal Collective - Time Skiffs. No

Gnod are on a roll with their last three or so albums. The recent Hexen Valley https://gnod.bandcamp.com/album/hexen-valley and La Mort Du Sense https://gnod.bandcamp.com/album/la-mort-du-sens are worth a listen.

Agree with you on Black Country New Road. On paper they should rock my world, but the actuality and execution is somewhat lacking. Mind you, that early single Sunglasses is still pretty good (think I heard it on a Mojo or Uncut comp first)
