He asked for rock and alternative, not metal.
But if we're listing metal anyway... Death http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-as4LausEok OPETH The Moor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpkHg8p64Yc Demon of the Fall http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrBrH5PZtcc In The Mist She Was Standing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H18p6GEaRIM At The Gates http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJme5uubkyQ Gojira (french death metal! with protect-the-environment themes! weirdest combination ever, but I love them) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5By-5mLHk4 Isis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A87P1eXFqp8 Amorphis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugUXDwBswWI Children of Bodom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8F3t-F_grc Kalmah http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz2irxsZKH0 Mastodon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-Su1YXQYek seen a lot of these bands live. Can't think of a bad show among them saw Slayer Metallica and Pantera in the late 90's when I was like 14. Metallica/Pantera fans are pretty laid back imo but some Slayer fans are fucking idiots who make it a point to try to hurt people during a show. | ||

Speaking of people getting hurt at concerts...I've noticed it's usually the people who AREN'T die-hard metal fans who are the ones trying to hurt everyone...you know, the people who like poser fag hot topic metal like Killswitch Engage or Avenged Sevenfold...garbage like that. Real Slayer fans are too busy worshiping Kerry King's guitar solos to bother with pits. Edit: I fucking hate you for getting to see Children of Bodom live...I've been trying to get to their shows around here for years and I always end up being fucking busy. Everything you linked is +1. | |||

Most of what I listen to wouldn't fit with the stuff you like (I believe), back in the 90s-early 2000s I used to listen to Rock and Alternative radio (cause it was good back then) but now I've shifted more to Electronic, and some really out-there Alternative/Indie stuff.
But the new Foo Fighters album "Wasting Light" is pretty good. I'd also like to suggest a band called "Solid Gold", their album is called "Bodies of Water", although they're considered Electro-Pop they're worth checking out. Foo Fighters - Walk (Link is set up to start @ 1min, where the music starts) Solid Gold - Bible Thumper

As far as I'm concerned, the last "rock" band was the Strokes - and they haven't been much of a rock band since "room on fire." That being said, their first two albums are sick as shit.
With a few exceptions (The Black Keys are one off the top of my head), rock these days is pretty weak. Music always goes in phases - aside from punk, rock kind of died down during the 80s, picked back up again in the 90s, and now has died down again. Hopefully something will spark a renewed interest in rock, but as it is, everyone right now seems to be enamored with the production aspect which leads to more use of mixers and computers as opposed to actual instruments... everyone wants to be a DJ/Producer. I used to always chuckle at how James Murphy nails it on "Losing my edge"... Quote:
EDIT: I'm not saying it is a bad thing either, just kind of rambling because I'm stoned and listening to music atm. Due to how lame rock is right now and how much amazing stuff is being put out in alternative genres, you should definitely think about checking out some different genres as well since it seems you're trying to expand your library. | |||

Metallica is most certainly 'Thrash Metal'. Everyone needs to watch 'Metal: A Headbanger's Journey' and 'Global Metal' before you can be considered a human being. | |||
