Any definition of rock is fine. Any era is fine.

I am a bit of a softy, so my favorites are more garage / blues / indie:

  • The Strokes ❤️
  • The Black Keys ❤️
  • The Arctic Monkeys ❤️
  • Kasabian ❤️
  • Black Box Revelation
  • Pixies
  • FIDLAR
  • Cage the Elephant

I love the Cure! Should really give Tool some time...

Band-Maid.

I'll assume a lot of people are unfamiliar, so for a sample, try Dice, From Now On (it's a instrumental track), or for their more punk-y era, Choose Me, Alone...

They have a really wide reportoire, style wise. As someone who used to listen to the usual suspects of punk/rock in the early 2000s, Band-Maid is now my favorite band.

A great jazz, psych rock, thrash metal, psych pop, garage rock, microtonal, folk rock, spoken word, surf rock band.

Nonagon Infinity is such a well executed idea. It's my favorite of theirs just for the concept alone.

Radiohead! Proceed with caution, not all of their albums are rock music.

I'm one of the weirdos buying into the hype of black midi, BCNR and Squid as well. Give them a shot. black midi is probably the most experimental of the bunch.

There's also Interpol, Arcade Fire, The National: the usual suspects. Dismemberment Plan, The Mars Volta, Porcupine Tree. Some more recent indie rock: Pinegrove, Hop Along, Indigo de Souza.

Your mileage may vary, of course, but they're some of my favorites.

Well we have lots of bands in common. AM are my favorite band, Cage The Elephant are a must, Strokes and Black Keys from time to time. I would just add MUSE in generale and The Beatles for the recent period of time

[-] knokelmaat@beehaw.org 0 points 2 years ago

What did you think about The Car? I personally loved it. There'd Better Be A Mirrorball might be one of my favorite songs of them ever.

[-] AsepticFuturisticFox@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

Yes me too! I see it as an improved version of TBHC, some kind of mix between it and AM. My fave in this period is Body Paint, it's just the right mix of energy and relax

BTW, I created !arcticmonkeys@lemmy.ml, if you want I can make you mod
