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.

The more I listen to it the more I think Widespread Panic - Dirty Side Down, is the best I have heard. Great album.

Energizer,
What era are you stuck in to write, "there are no great rock bands anymore"? Do you shopping at Best Buy? Maybe one of those mall stores?

I keep coming back to The Arcade Fire---Suburbs. Just a superb piece of music (wish it wasn't so compressed though).

I love how the Suburbs just unfolds, with each song informing the next. All the great albums have this quality, the Beatles: White Album, Rolling Stone's Exile.
While not in their direct stature, I think the Suburbs will be viewed as one of the masterpieces of this decade.

Another fan of The Suburbs. As Keithr and Bongofury suggest, it's really an amazing album. As for the compression issue, it really opened up for me when I changed my speakers (from Dynaudio X12s to Snell K/IIs).
