Best Rock Album of 2016

Alright rock fans, let's get our annual thread started.

I'm really digging Sturgill Simpson's "A Sailor's Guide to Earth" - yeah, I know its not pure rock and roll as he's an alt-country/americana guy with country roots, but this album is just killer.  Easily will be on my top albums of the year list.

Drive-By Truckers "American Band" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm happy to say that this effort is their best so far and even though it is on ATO, it sounds great!

Compared to the last few years, was this a bad year for memorable new releases? This year all my favorites acquisitions are OLD albums. Cheers,

qdrone,

I completely agree with your post of "Black Star", a "Mastrerwork"!!!

sbank,

I think it's all subjective and based upon one's personal choices?

Cheers!
