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.

I've been enjoying Justin Townes Earle's "Harlem River Blues" of late as well.

Sleigh Bells: Treats
Titus Andronicus: The Monitor
James Blakes' EPs
Deerhunter: Halcyon Digest (even better than Microcastle)
Tame Impalas: Innerspeaker
Laura Marling: I Speak Because I Can (rockin' folk music)

There were some decent releases by older rockers, but I prefer to listen to classical music rather than dad rock these days. And I'm old.

Soldersplatter...That Lara Marling is a great album. She is quite the talent and a perfect match for Mumford and Sons. I think it is a special one that many folks missed.

Second the Laura Mauling album. Great soundstage and recording sonics. One of the absolute best. Also like Florence + The Machine.

Adding Junip "Fields" to this list. Can't get this one off my system these days. Fans of Jose Gonzalez "Veneer" + "In Our Nature" may enjoy this more elaborate side of him. Still sparse and unmistakable...adding and organ player, bass and drums, evolves his stuff and adds intensity. Love this record.
