Best Rock Album of 2016


Alright rock fans, let's get our annual thread started.

I'm really digging Sturgill Simpson's "A Sailor's Guide to Earth" - yeah, I know its not pure rock and roll as he's an alt-country/americana guy with country roots, but this album is just killer.  Easily will be on my top albums of the year list.

They just started playing the snot out of the new Radiohead release on WFUV here in NY and now I'm finally not confusing them with Coldplay any longer...and I like what I've heard so far. 

Surprising even myself I discovered a Radiohead cd in my collection that I don't remember buying.  Then again Lucinda's release a little while back bears mention as well. 


Heard a cut off of the new Santana on the radio the other day...don't remember the song's name but the lyrics were horrible! I know of one lp I won't be buying.

Still can't get into the latest Radiohead...a few more 2016 favorites:

William Tyler "Modern Country"
Cass McCombs "Mangy Love"
Band of Horses "Why are you OK"
Underworld "Barbara Barbars..."
Rufus Du Sol "Bloom"
