Well, that’s it! Today is the final day of 2013, and what better way to kiss this amazing year goodbye than with our best albums of 2013. From heavy hitters such as Arcade Fire and Daft Punk, to lesser known indie acts such as Savages and Rhye — 2013 produced some excellent albums. Some made us dance, some made us go a little crazy, and some were on repeat for days on end.  One thing for sure is, all the full-length records below were first-rate, and leaders of their genre.
