Over the past year, Greta Van Fleet is the only young guitar group to have made their way to the golden god and blues of contemporary, fantasy and plastic music culture.
On October 19, the group should finally release their first feature film, evoking the town, entitled “Anthem of the Peaceful Army”.
The LP follows two Led Zeppelin-flavored EPs that took the Frankenmuth, Michigan quartet to equally passionate fan and hater camps. This made Greta Van Fleet the most thoughtful rising rocker since the White Stripes.
But that’s not to say that there aren’t other recent acts worthy of rock fan notoriety, playlists, and t-shirt collections.
Below is a list of 15 other bands guitarists should know and find hope for in these dark times dominated by Post Malone and Cardi B.
If you know of any other new or new rock bands – I’ve tried to keep this list only for bands whose albums aren’t more than five years old – feel free to leave any suggestions in the comments section.
After all, we could all use a little more real rock ‘n’ roll in our lives right now.
(Sorry but no, English actor The 1975 doesn’t count as “rock.” It’s an indie-pop group in which a few guys are holding guitars but haven’t shown that they can kill with it. that I enjoy classic rock-inspired material from Rival Sons, which the Los Angeles band has been releasing records for almost 10 years now, so it’s a stretch to call them recent.)

Classless law
From: Los Angeles
The Sound: Lean, gritty and hungry hard rock from the Sunset Strip with London Hudson, the teenage son of Guns N ‘Roses guitarist-hero Slash, beating the drums like a young Tommy Lee. But even if their drummer’s father wasn’t a legend, Classless Act would still be a young group worthy of attention.
Song to start: No officially released recordings yet, but there are a few live YouTube clips.
