I like some of the Bill Callahan's old band, "Smog", albums as well.
Five Best Rock Albums Of 2013
There was a thread started in May about this and I thought it was a little early and now is just right. Mine are The Fratelli's " We Need Medicine", Arcade Fire "Reflektor", Eels "Wonderful, Glorious", Calexico "Algiers", The Truth & Salvage Company, "Pick Me Up" and honorable mention goes to Dawes, "Stories Don't End".
