The Foo Fighters most recent album contains some of the best rock songs I have ever heard.

Other groups I'd recommend are Audioslave (made up out of Chris Cornell from Soundgarden and Rage against the Machine) whose single sounds like Zep and rocks like a bastard and Queen of the Stone Age who represent everything proper rock is about.

Another classic is obviously Nirvana - Nevermind (though the greatest hits album is fine too).

Isn't anyone gonna mention the Doors...?

[Bereta_Eder]

They do rock but in a more dizzy kind of way.

Now you see what growing up with ABBA can do to you

[monolith94]

In Through The Out Door was a good album.

[alva]

but a weird title...
In,
out,
through,

puting all those in the same sentence

physical graffitti. kashmir enough said. sure it is overrated and overplayed, but I still love it. I don't know all the songs from this album.

Like I said I just listen to their box set. A great buy. It includes all their great songs.

Doors: Five to One - this is a good rocking one from the doors. Light my fire is also good- if you like organs.

Steve Miller Band- they had some good ones as well.

Dio- Try songs like Holy Diver, don't talk to strangers, rainbow in the dark, and last in line

Ozzy osbourne- crazy train, I don't know, mr. crawley to start with.

CCR. too many to choose from- lets see- born on the bayou, house of the rising sun, suie q, run through the jungle

If you like something different try Jethro Tull. But don't listen to them if you don't like flutes though

Van Halen- yeah they are very overplayed. But try mean streets or change for something different. And hot for teacher always rocks.

OK this is a weird one. Fly me Courageous by Drivin n Cryin. Yeah they weren't that good a band, but I love this song.

AC/DC- so many old ones to choose from. For those about to rock, hells bells, dirty deeds, TNT, hell ain't a bad place to be, jailbreak, let there be rock, sin city,

B-52's- rock lobster. I love this song- and it does rock in a campy sort of way

Bad Company- rock and roll fantasy

Black Sabbath- so many to choose from. Ozzy years only. paranoid is a good album to start from. Heaven and Hell is decent from Ronnie's years.

Boston- foreplay/long time

candlebox- you, far behind

cream- crossroads, white room, sunshine of your love

edgar winter group- frankenstein

heart- baracuda, straight on


Iron butterfly- inna godda da vida (kind of a Jim morrison rip off- and a one hit wonder at that, but I still like this song)

iron maiden, running free, killers, wrathchild, ghenghis khan, prowler- these are all their older ones.

jefferson airplane- white rabbit

kansas- carry on wayward son

motorhead- ace of spades

steve miller band- keep on rockin' me, joker,

I cruised through this thread and saw alot of good stuff. I'll add (and I'll probably be beaten down for it) Dave Matthews. I've rarely heard someone that can get down like that, but what do you expect when he can sing and play that well.

I know some of his stuff is mid-tempo, but he can rock when it comes down to it.

Stuff like:
Jimi Thing
Warehouse
Screaming from the Minarets
Halloween
Don't Drink the Water
...Dave's version of All Along the Watchtower (someone mentioned Jimi).

Try the acoustic stuff; him minus the rest of his band is usually best IMO. Duos with Tim Reynolds or solo stuff is a better format for his abilities.

At least, thats what rocks when I smoke

lightblue, have you heard the Audioslave album?
That lineup sounds spectactular - potentially the best of both bands.
I was disappointed by Cornell's last album.

Brand New Cadillac and I Fought the Law: The Clash, these versions will rock your face off.

Rage Against the Machine have a lot of good hard rocking songs.

Frank Zappa: One Size Fits All - the entire album rocks, but especially Pajama People and San Bernadino. Joe's Garage rocks hard too.

Screaming Trees: unjustly ignored grunge band, I recommend Invisible Lantern

David Bowie: Width of a Circle. Albums: Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and more recently Outside and Earthling

Butthole Surfers: PSY, Hairway to Steven and many more.

Yes: Fragile, Close to the Edge and The Yes Album. The Bill Bruford days are especially good.

If you like what I posted. I'll suggest some others.
