Best Rock Album in 2013


Ok folks, let's get another one started. Best yearly thread for us rock fans. Most of the albums are starting to be released.

Have to say, Atoms for Peace doesn't do anything for me despite the "superband" status. Where is Flea on the record?

Lots of potential coming with Phoenix, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the National, Postal Service, Vampire Weekend, etc.

Not rock (it's indie), but I like Toro y Moi "Anything in Return" so far. Going through the new Depeche Mode currently- pretty up and down effort.

Agree on Hesitation Marks. Pearl Jam Thunderbolt LP is also great and well pressed except for a few nagging pops. Others good vinyl includes Mark Lanegan Imitations, Bill Callahan Dream River(more Townes than rock), Dave Davies I Will Be Me, The Dead Veneta Oregon 8/27/72, Dylan Another Self Portrait, and especially the re-release of Chris Whitley's Living with the Law.

The only dog I've found so far is Van Dyke Parks Songs Cycled. He really needs to stop singing.
New Frans Ferd album and Arctic Monkeys are super. NIN is a great return to form.
Love the new Arcade Fire, with a fantastic dance rhythm through most tracks. Will sound incredible live.
In keeping with 98% of the "artists" listed in this thread: Best Rock Album in 2013
I offer for consideration:

Boy George - This Is What I Do
Sting - The Last Ship
Imagine Dragons - Demons
Miley Cyrus - Bangerz
Britney Spears - Work B**ch
Katy Perry - PRISM

rock on audio gone...

ps: reissues are just that
