What're some really good, kick a.ss *recent* rock bands (trust me, I got the old stuff covered) :)

I recently did this w/ metal & screamo & got lots of great replies & links to good Youtube vids.

This time I'm doing it w/ metal's older brother- hard rock. (& not so hard rock too actually)

Thx & Fire away!

OK, so we want hard but not quite metal. This could be a daunting challenge.

Stone Sour - Through Glass - this song actually gives me chills.

I am more an "old Timer" myself, But I do like Hinder and The Killers.
Obviously, The Foo Fighters is a must.
Country Rock, Try Big and Rich if you haven't done so already!

Gorgeous Frankenstein

This album came out before they got their permanent singer (Argyle Goolsby of Blitzkid). It's Doyle's (of Misfits fame) new band. Much more of a hard rock direction.

This should keep you busy for a while:

Danny Vaughn - There's a lot of material out there to cover from his two previous bands (Waysted, one album; and Tyketto, two albums) and his solo work (some of it under the Vaughn moniker).

The Answer - Irish band, straight ahead rock'n'roll, a nice blend of Zeppelin and the Faces.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEPjMnWz_DI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYsxWGSugIg

Backyard Babies - Glammed up punk, this was a side project for the singer who was in a death metal band.

Black Stone Cherry - Heavy handed rock with a southern flavor.

Cinder Road - I've just started listening to these guys, so I don't have much to offer other than a once over on their first album.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94jeazxJ444

Crashdiet - Certainly not for everyone... modern glam.

Endeverafter - I saw these guys open for Poison and Cinderella last year... not very original but good at what they do.

Gemini Five - The best way to describe would be industrialized glam.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEjysHmtMR8

Hardcore Superstar - More glammed out punk, or possibly punked out glam... the song "We Don't Celebrate Sundays" is an all time favorite.

Poets & Pornstars - Another newbie... they have a lot of potential.

The Poodles - More Swedish glam. Very tongue in cheek, but very good.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dSuGpK3lVE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33_0rgK3CfM

Wig Wam - Waaaaaaay over the top glam, and very tongue in cheek. They don't take themselves seriously, but the music is great.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpRfC15gYSo

The Wildhearts - Hit or miss with these guys. Their first album is fabulous from start to finish.

Stone Temple Pilots (fairly recent) first album is outstanding.
Social Distortion (not too recent) "Somewhere between heaven and hell.
Audioslave's first album.

I don't know if they've already been mentioned, but All that Remains and Opeth blow my mind.
