Ok folks, let's get another one started. Best yearly thread for us rock fans.

Not really rock, but like Gotye "Making Mirrors" so far.

Not sure if it qualifies as rock, but I just picekd up a copy of "Boys and Girls" by "Alabama Shakes". Phenomenal stuff.
So far I've only collected vinyl, but here goes:

George Harrison: Early Takes Vol. 1
Dr. John: Locked Down
Farrar, Johnson, Parker, Yames: New Multitudes (Guthrie Tribute)
Springsteen: Wrecking Ball
Trembling Bells/Bonnie Prince Billy: The Marble Downs
The Magnetic Fields: Love at the Bottom of the Sea
M. Ward: A Wasteland Companion
Widespread Panic: Live Wood
Leonard Cohen: Old Ideas
Black Francis: The Golem(rereleased on LP)
Ditto Bonnie Raitt

The George Harrison demo tracks are priceless.
Leonard Cohen "Old Ideas"
Jack White "Blunderbuss"
Heartless Bastards "Arrow"
Bandalabra "Live At The Royal Room" (CD only)
Norah Jones as rock? Llol.

Let's keep them coming. Chromatics new album maybe interesting...
Blunderbuss gets another vote. The Accept follow up to Blood of the Nations is getting praise aswell, I dont have it yet. Gotye is a great pop album.
