All Them Witches. This song pounds on a good sound system.
The new Hum album kicks so much a$$.

Jack White's solo work and The Raconteurs are outstanding. Saw them at the last ACL, and it was a great show. The only thing I don't love with Jack is the Dead Weather. I've seen him twice and my only regret is not seeing The White Stripes when they were together. He's hands down my favorite artist.Ol Jock 99 said:
The White Stripes have been gone for a decade. I like JWiii's solo stuff, but it isn't the same.

A little pop punkish vibe
Yeah I could post videos all day of them.Echoes97 said:
Some good stuff mentioned on this thread, major kudos for the All Them Witches mention!
BTW if any of y'all are fans of AC/DC, and want to hear some young(ish) dudes basically being AC/DC part 2, check out the band Airbourne, pretty fun band.
I didn't know we had another JWiii fanboy on here. It has been pretty lonely, although picking up steam the past few years. Saw the Stripes on the Get Behind Me Satan tour, JWiii twice (Lazaretto and Boarding House Reach), and the Raconteurs latest tour.Quote:

If you were in Austin, we may have been at the same two shows. Saw him at Austin Music Hall (Lazaretto) and Austin 360 for Boarding House Reach. Saw the Raconteurs at ACL before G&R. Ready for something new and a new tour.Ol Jock 99 said:I didn't know we had another JWiii fanboy on here. It has been pretty lonely, although picking up steam the past few years.

I generally echo your thoughts. Boarding House Reach just doesn't work for me though. Some good songs, to be sure, but some real clunkers (Walk a Dog...which he performed live with tons of video production...not any better).
I think he needs someone to help keep him grounded a bit. Meg's limitations with the garage band sound, Brenden and crew with the pure rock. When he can do anything he wants, he gets super experimental. Sometimes it works (High Ball Stepper), sometimes it does (the song with the damned high pitched beep in BHR).
Have stumbled upon Nick Oliveri at my local self-serve car wash a few times this past year. Nice guy. We were talking about his new vette (an 86) and how it needed freon for the AC. He'll be stopping by to pick up the pound I've had in storage for the last 30 years.AustinAg2012 said:
Off the top of my head: Pearl Jam, Deftones, A Perfect Circle, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age.
And your list is legit, minus Muse.

Interesting two of you mentioned Queens of the Stone Age. I have their album from back in the 90s(?); the one people know I guess. Really didn't even know I had it and it started rolling through my Shuffle lately for some reason.
You betcha they still make music. Like Clockwork is great.
I have a new appreciation for those songs and I've REALLY come to like them even though I was meh on them back in the 90s. They aren't still making music are they?
I love you.Zombie Jon Snow said:
If you have an iphone and apple music check out their playlist called "Breaking Hard Rock". It updates automatically every few days or every week at least.
It includes new rock music from both established bands and new discoveries. I've found several bands off there in the last year.
You can just add the playlist to yours and it gives you a constantly changing selection - which you can either play randomly or just peruse and look for interesting stuff and quickly sample a few. Then you can add what you like to your own library.
Shows up in their search when you go under Categories and Rock. There are several others of varying niche genres depending on your taste.
