Wow, 3 people mentioned Throwing Muses and they all picked the album I was gonna say- Limbo. It really is their most solid album.

And I was gonna say Uh-Oh by David Byrne and 2 people listed that too.

I've said it before, but, Aimee Mann's Bachelor #2 is the only record I can think of where I love every single song ( Doolittle comes close ).

I know I've done this before, but I might as well do it again. A few non-FB albums that would definitely make it to my all-time favorites list are:

XTC - Skylarking
TMBG - Apollo 18 (I used to always say Lincoln, but A18 is probably the better overall album when I really think about it.)
Young Fresh Fellows - This One's for the Ladies
Moxy Früvous - Bargainville
Fastbacks - Answer the Phone, Dummy
Neko Case and Her Boyfriends - Furnace Room Lullaby
Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs
Tom Lehrer - That Was the Year That Was
