I started using "album" again because I thought "CD" was becoming passe!
It's one of these, but I can't choose:
Arcade Fire - Funeral
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium

Appropriate for today, Queensryche's American Soldier.

Well I'm not sure if you mean the recording was created in the last 5 years or the recording was released in the last 5 years, so I am going with the latter: Johnny Winter's Woodstock Performance (released 2009) and even better it has my favorite of all albums: Johnny Winter (a.k.a. the Black Album), which was his first album under what at the time ('69) was the biggest recording contract ever.
If you think album is passe, how about LP? Actually, passe or not, either term is applicable to a CD, album moreso. I am learning the new terminology though and just recently learned what the word "digipak" means and I really like the cardboard "digipak" CD cases because 1) jewel cases are cheezy and tacky, and 2) the digipak cases remind me of the cardboard albums of my youth, albeit on a much smaller scale. Hey, anyone see all the nice digipak re-releases of old Beatles albums? Must be half a dozen of them.
Now if it had to be actually recorded in the last 5 years, I would have to include 2004 (counting backward--8,7,6,5,4--that's 5 years) and say Johnny Winter's last release, "I'm A Bluesman."

I like John Valby's stuff.
the 3CD-set by Neal Morse called "Testimony" the 2-CD set is available on Amazon, but if you order directly, the 3rd CD comes with it. Why is the 3rd CD important? ...a killer remake of the Who's "I'm Free/Sparks" with Mike Portnoy on drums.

This is it? Nobody else has a favorite CD from the past 5 years? Sad commentary on the current state of music I guess.
