Best Rock Album in 2010

So its finally landed, the third album by Rock duo JohnOssi, with John Engelbert on Guitar and Vocals and Oskar Bonde on drums.

Mavericks - JohnOssi

Last year i had the title Best Rock Album in 2009, so far and had my vote out for Black Keys man Dan Auerbach, this year I will drop the "so far" and stipulate that this is as good as it gets!

Please add your best for 2010, but lets keep it to albums released in 2010.

Second the recommendations(especially the vinyl) of Widespread Panic "Dirty Side Down." I had lost track of this band. Very tasty/tasteful southern rock, at moments with a feel for Clapton circa '73-5.

Bongo,

I'll second Tin Can Trust. IMHO, it's the best thing the Lobos have done in a long, long time.

Nick Cave's Grinderman 2 way out in front. Well above the first Grinderman project in terms of psyched-out eerieness & grandeur of Cave at his best. LP SQ is about perfect, and the included CD is uncompressed and close enough. Add to this a well-done thick illustrated book and full-sized poster and it becomes clear that he deserves double credit for 12x12.

This is redundant because I just posted it in the Favorite New Music thread but I think it belongs on this list as well.
