So what are the big old fart comebacks of 2013? I'm addressing artists or bands where the primary members are 45+ that haven't had an album critically acclaimed in a looooong time or their latest album is their best in a looooooooooooong time, whether that was because of a stretch average/substandard output or an absence from music.
The three that come to my mind are: david bowie, paul mccartney, nine inch nails and pet shop boys.
I'm sure a bunch of people would put my bloody valentine out there as well.
Sarah Brightman's Dreamchaser album got great reviews.

Many consider this album to be her best work. I like the album, but it focuses too heavily on reverb in the first half, and not enough on Sarah. People want a Sarah Brightman album for Sarah's vocals, and that's not the major part of the album. I was very impressed with the second half for relying on a perfect balance of focus between Sarah, the backing vocalists, the reverb, and the instruments. There's also a concept revolving around space. The album's on of my top ten for the year, and I'll give it a relisten soon.
