Rock is dead...

[Pierre Tombale]

Seen a few complaints in another thread that rock has died in the new millenium,

but I find this is totally untrue and this thread means to prove it.

Maybe some have this theory in mind, because rock is different than it used to be, not such mainstream huge bands to hit the charts,

but it is definitely there. Spread into different subgenres of course, but it has been like that before.

I still see important bands continuing to put out great records as well as there are plenty new bands of course to rock the scenes.

First example of a pretty new band with a recent song:
