Best Rock Albums in 2009, so far


I would like to nominate the album: Keep It Hid - Dan Auerbach. From 2008 I reaaly liked Only by the Night - Kings of Leon

I was disappointed with the Wilco album. I just got the new Magnolia electric Co. album call "Josaphine" I think it's really good, but I like everything Jason Molina has ever done.
As a few others have mentioned, Dan Auerbach "Keep It Hid" is excellent.

I will add the following recommendations that I did not catch above.

Patterson Hood "Murdering Oscar"
Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears "Tell 'Em What Your Name Is!"
Deer Tick "Born on Flag Day"
Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit self-titled
Mastodon "Crack the Skye" (if you dig metal)
Try Booker T - Neil Young & Drive By Truckers : Potato Hole . Every track is good and the sound is awesome (not compressed like Dave Mathews recent effort) - this is one that can go into heavy rotation.
