Black Sabbath - 13: If you're a Black Sabbath fan, their new album is really good. Sounds like the old days.

I know my list will always be short or ignorant of some genres I'm not into, like C&W, Heavy metal, so look forward to seeing what others think.

Forgot to post this one in my earlier post. If you're into bluesy-rock, check out Orianthi: Heaven in this Hell.
She plays an awesome guitar (she plays with Alice Cooper's live band) and has a great voice.

My friend from "Oz" is always bragging about her. I like Lisa Mitchell, but he keeps telling me I really ought to be more into Orianthi. I like what little I've heard of her. Will give this one a try.

Spock's Beard - Brief Nocturnes and Dreamless Sleep.
Frankly, I don't think anything else I'd be inclined to buy this year will come close to it.

I think I may have bought only one current album this year.
Nanobots - They Might Be Giants.
It wins by default, but would be good competition regardless.

it's a sad state of affairs that I have to say I don't have a clue what the best album of 2013 was!

I wasn't listening. heh.
