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.

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

Rush - Clockwork Angels

Playing, songwriting, musicianship, and production light years ahead of most of other stuff coughed up this year.

Ditto Clockwork Angels - one the finest rock albums ever. A future classic for sure.

The Next Day by David Bowie. One of the best records of Bowie to date

Mind Made Up by The Tedeschi-Trucks band is really, really good. I also like the new one from Brendan Benson. However, that was released just this week, so I need a few more spins before I could really stump for it.
