The best rock albums of the year according to Ultimate Classic Rock

For some years now it has been said that rock music is over and over. For some it is even dead and buried. As usual, these are opinions. Everyone has their own thoughts on the matter. At the end of each year it is natural to summarize what happened in the previous twelve months.
