It is a pretty long list, who knows album names? I sure don't.

I wouldn't even know how to make a list of just albums in Winamp.

That took me a couple of minutes thusly:

1. Run, Cmd
2. cd\mp3
3. dir /ad /on >> c:\temp.txt
4. Open with Excel, and kill all the date/time columns

Oh, though I suppose you need to have your mp3 dir arranged so that it's by album name :]

Recommendation #1 for you, sir: Jens Lekman. He's a pretentious and yet low-key indie folk rock artist.

After that, we have groups that fit multiple but not all categories:

The National
Sigur Ros
Talk Talk
Wilco
Antony And The Johnsons
Calexico
Joanna Newsom
Baby Dayliner
Mobius Band

Also, I'll second all of xorbie/Sephus's recommendations.

Is there any good reason why it has Frou Frou listed as #3 in there? Are they related somehow? (I like Frou Frou)

You should just buy Fox Confessor Brings The Flood and Blacklisted. Both albums are solid throughout. If you are just looking for more singles, then check out Maybe Sparrow, Deep Red Bells, and Hold On, Hold On.

EDIT: Also here's a treat: Neko performs Maybe Sparrow on Letterman.
