Best Rock Album in 2011


This was my favorite thread from last year, so figured I would start it afresh.

I'll start:

Foo Fighters "Wasting Light"---best album by the Foos in years

TV on the Radio "Nine Types of Light"---bit more ambient than Dear Science, but the music is first rate

Thanks for that Jesusa0, I'm looking forward to it. Jorma! Already? Seems like I just bought his latest last week. :-)

Not a solo album.

First Hot Tuna release in almost 20 years.

Guests include Larry Campbell, a very gifted musician IMO.
I purchased the Hot Tuna record at the same time as Man in Motion and I agree. Definitely a long standing talent, as is Jack Cassidy.
Thus Far:

Cave Singers - No Witch
Bill Callahan - Apocalypse
Destroyer - Kaputt
Paul Simon - So Beautiful or So What
Okkervil River - I Am Very Far
Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues

All on LP.
For me it's Steve Miller Band - Let your hair down, but I'm looking forward to getting Black Country Communion 2 which just came out this week
