I can say I’ve listened to enough of Animal Collective to properly rank all of their albums but that would be my top 4 as well.
 
sloan: twice removed > navy blues > one chord to another > action pact > pretty together > smeared > between the bridges > never hear the end of it > commonwealth > the double cross > 12 > parallel play

really tho, everything after btb is of relatively limited interest to me...

1. Norman Fucking Rockwell
2. Ultraviolence
3. Born to Die
4. Honeymoon

I would switch Pure Comedy and God’s Favorite Customer.
 
I re-listened to Pure Comedy recently. I think it stands up well, but man, is it a slog in some spots. A great background album to put on while cleaning though.
Yeah, me putting PC in last place isn’t meant as a slight so much as how consistently brilliant FJM’s discography has been. I enjoy the album a great deal the other 3 are damn near perfect IMO.
 
contrary take...

father john misty: pure comedy > i love you, honeybear > god's favourite customer > fear fun > chloe and the next 20th century
You listen to the Chloe leak? I'm pretty cautiously optimistic given people's reaction to it but I don't wanna pre judge it, especially since I love both singles so far (especially Q4)
 
The National

1. Sleep Well Beast
2. Boxer
3. Alligator
4. High Violet
5. I Am Easy To Find
6. Trouble Will Find Me
7. Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers

I did the “shocked face” but really the top 4 in any order works for me.
1. Alligator

Trouble Will Find Me probably seems low for most people too, but I never had a big connection with it. I didn't listen to them at all after HV, then SWB got me right back into them.

Yeah, High Violet and Trouble Will Find Me are about equal in my book. TWFM is probably a slightly better album overall but HV has “Bloodbuzz Ohio” which give it the win.
