Mumford & Sons – Babel
Alabama Shakes – Boys & Girls
The Avett Brothers – The Carpenter

Woudn't call those "rock". Folk rock is more like it. Happens to be right up my alley. I have 2 of the 3 you mentioned. If you like those, try these:

Ben Howard - Every Kingdom
Jack White - Blunderbuss
The Barr Brothers - Self Titled
Angus Stone - Broke Brights
Charlie Mars - Blackberry Light
First Aid Kit - The Big Black And...
Grace Woodroofe - ALways Want
Heartless Bastards - Arrow
Ingrid Michealson - Human Again
Jess Morgan - All Swell
Joe Pug - The Great Despiser
Joshua Radin - Under Water
Lord Huron - Lonesome Dreams
The Lumineers - Self Titled
Nathaniel Rateliff - In Memory Of Loss
Peggy Sue - Acrobats
Phillip Phillips - The World From...
Rue Royale - Guide to an Escape
She Keeps Bees - Nests
The Wishbones - Forever Bound

Enjoy!
You need to clarify what a "rock" album is because I would not consider Munford and Sons a "Rock" band.

Bluegrass maybe, or Pop.

When I think rock, I think Staind, Blink182, Breaking Benjamin etc.

So best Rock of 2012........

Not a good year

Both Chevelle and Three Doors Down released greatest hits.

2010 was a better year with

Chevelle - Sci-fi Crimes
Iron Maiden - Final Frontier
Daft Punk - Tron Leagacy

Of course if you consider Re-release on Vinyl!

Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Saddness
The Beatles -

I really don't keep up to when an album Is released.
On the pop side, but Some Nights by FUN. is remarkable. The one I listened to the most even over very good efforts by Dylan, Willie Nelson and the Boss.
