The accolade for Best Rock Album was first presented to the Mexican band Café Tacuba at the 1st Latin Grammy Awards in 2000 for their fourth studio album Revés/Yo Soy (1999). From 2001 until 2009, the category was not awarded and was instead split between Best Rock Solo Vocal Album and Best Rock Album by a Duo or Group with Vocal. Best Rock Album was reintroduced in 2010 at the 11th Annual Latin Grammy Awards.

Colombian band Diamante Eléctrico and Mexican group Molotov are the only acts to win this award twice. Uruguayan band NoTeVaGustar are the most nominated artist without a win, with four.
