Best and Hottest New Rock Bands

July 17, 2011 - 12:00 am Comments Off

Getting to the top isn’t easy, but these bands have managed to get their collective foot in the door of more than a few radio stations and rock magazines. The list:

Vetiver, The Errant Charm – Headed by Andy Cabic, whose vocals, when coupled with keyboards and drums, creates a sounds that gives birth to the love child of The Velvet Underground and Grand Funk Railroad. Check out “Can’t You Tell” and “Ride, Ride, Ride.”

Iceage, New Brigade – One of the more intense bands out there, this debut album brings you back to original punk that made a statement. Best tracks are “Broken Bone” and “White Rune.”

Handsome Furs, Sound Kapital – More pop than metal, but bring you to life. On the track “Repatriated” there is a resonating feeling of re-birth. This is where music is headed.

All Time Low, Dirty Work – Songs like “Time Bomb” and “I Feel Like Dancin’,” although somewhat scattered with no real direction, bring any party to life. Dirty Work is their fourth album and is already a Top 10 hit.

Also check out: Low Cut Connie, Jeff the Brotherhood, Cults, Sloan, and Foster the People (very akin to MGMT)
