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.

NIN w/ David Bowie "Back In Anger"... Vol 2

Honorable mention and a damn good lp!
Beth Hart... "Better Than Home".. her (swan song), IMO!

Haven't heard anything since.

Ozzy: If "painful" means GREAT!, I concur!
..in that she harnesses her pain, to achieve an lp that the end user feels her pain and becomes one!

Sorry if you don't get it.
Heard a cut off of the new Santana on the radio the other day...don't remember the song's name but the lyrics were horrible! I know of one lp I won't be buying.

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!
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!
