Honorable mention for Eric Steckel's "Dismantle The Sun" - great album sampling here in this 16 min trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rT5BVOo8_Yw

Edited to add: Nevermind, that was a 2012 release...I just didn't find it until 2013.

Re: Best Album 2013

Well, really a lot of great records this year, the two that stood out for me:

John Mayer - Paradise Valley
I have to admit that I´m kind of a fanboy but this one really grew on me, great great great songs on there

Steven Wilson - The Raven that refused to sing
I´m not really a Proghead anymore but this album really did it for me!!

Re: Best Album 2013

So many great albums I've bought in 2013 (though some may be late 2012 releases)
Highlights for me are the ones I am still playing on a regular basis

JJ Grey - The River
King King - Standing In The Shadows
The Hoax - Big City Blues
Royal Southern Brotherhood
Marcus Bonfanti - Shake The Walls
Aynsley Lister - Home
The Mentulls - Time Flies
Samantha Fish - Black Winds Howlin
Jonny Lang - Fight For My Soul
Devon Allman - Turquoise
Rival Sons - Head Down
JB - Driving
Temperence Movement
Anders Osbourne - Peace

There are plenty of other albums which I have only just started getting into but will no doubt become repeat plays, among these are Henrik Freishladers Night Train To Budapest (though I prefer House In The Woods) and Govt Mule Shout, Tedeschi Trucks Band, No Sinner...

Re: Best Album 2013

I forgot the Pinnick Gales Pridgen album came out in 2013.   That's definitely near the top of my list.
