Another album to keep an eye out for is Noah Gundersen's Ledges coming February 11. He is one of my favorite lyricist and from what I've heard so far from this album, he isn't slowing down.
Of course EPs should be allowed. And of course people can vote anytime they want during the month. Where's longinus when I need some cheesedik responses?
I guess my hangup is that it's way easier to put out an EP with 4/5 songs vs a 60 minute album. An EP had better be good. If its not then its failed to create any hype.

A couple of the "albums" out this month barely crack 30 minutes.

Going with Malkmus in a close one. Solid month with a lot of good albums, but I don't see any true album of the year contenders in this bunch yet.
Others I heavily considered...
Damien Jurado - Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son Laura Cantrell - No Way There From Here Warpaint - Warpaint James Vincent McMorrow - Post Tropical

For the record, I'm completely fine with people voting for EPs and was just joking about Horn's vote yesterday. People voted for EPs all last year, and I'm pretty sure I jokingly gave Monster or Lonignus shit about it at one point.
"According to the rules of the UK Charts, a recording counts as an "album" if either it has more than four tracks or lasts more than 25 minutes."
Also in defense of the EP, Billboard does not distinguish between the two for its album charts - technically both Jar of Flies (Alice in Chains) and Collision Course (Linkin Park/Jay-Z) are EPs and both hit #1 on their album chart.
I will stick with LPs, but think EPs should be allowed.
