The best-selling rock album of 2024 is 47 years old.

In a year dominated by pop, country and hip-hop, Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 masterpiece Rumours was the highest-charting rock album on Billboard’s 2024 year-end chart, landing at No. 34, just one spot ahead of Elton John’s 2017 greatest hits collection Diamonds.

Just 29 of the Top 200 albums on Billboard’s year-end 2024 chart were from rock artists. Depressingly, none of them were released this year. All but five of the 29 were greatest hits collections. Besides Rumours, the only non-compilation rock albums to make the chart were Nirvana’s Nevermind, AC/DC’s Back in Black, Linkin Park’s [Hybrid Theory] and Sublime’s self-titled 1996 album.

Taylor Swift earned the top two spots and four of the Top 10, hitting No. 1 with her latest album The Tortured Poets Department, No. 2 with 1989 (Taylor’s Version), No. 9 with 2019’s Lover and No. 10 with 2022’s Midnights.

You can see where each of the 29 rock albums landed on Billboard’s 2024 year-end chart below.
