The new Royal Blood record should be out soon and we cannot wait. The first video from the upcoming record features “Figure It Out,” and a video that has been over 84 million times. Forget the hype machine of Great Van Fleet. The Struts and Royal Blood are the bands to watch in 2019.

Video of the Day: DeWolff – Deceit & Woo
James Gang meets Deep Purple on a jam that might be one of the best songs of 2018.
Best Albums of 2018: DeWolff – Thrust
With 70’s vocals as the main course and a greasy Hammond organ as an appetizer this one from the Dutch trio DeWolff is a game changer. This is prime-era classic rock at its riffing and over the top best.
Video of the Day: Bad Touch – Skyman
Honest Bluesy Rock and Roll is what these guys are all about. Huge choruses and killer riffs abound with this band. Jump on the bandwagon now while there is still time.
Five Cool Ones: Five (More) Reasons Rock Is Not Dead
The Lemon Twigs – The Fire
Remember when Rock and Roll was fun. People didn’t take themselves or the music too seriously and it was ok to be a bit different. Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting The Lemon Twigs.
The Dirty Nil – Bathed In Light
When you open for The Who your band must be pretty good. Part early who and part ramshackle MC-5 these Canadian dudes can light up a stage.
The Regrettes – California Friends
Part Pretenders, part 60’s Girl Group, all cool.
Glorious Sons – Josie
These Canadian brothers mix Springsteen worthy lyrics with With Kings of Leon Indie Rock credibility.
Massive Wagons – Under No Illusion
One nation under a hook and a groove, these guys are pretty much arena level ready right out of the box.
Video of the Day: All Them Witches – Diamond
Part Black Sabbath with a bit of Nirvana thrown in. The heart of Rock and Roll is still beating.
Video of the Day: The Blinders – L’etat C’est Moi
Sacre bleu, these guys are good. A Yorkshire three piece that cites its influences as Nick Cave, Bob Dylan, George Orwell, and William Burroughs has got to be cool.
Video of the Day: Glen Hughes – Sail Away
The Glen Hughes era Deep Purple is arguably the best of many configurations of The Purple. With Glen Hughes and David Coverdale it is hard to argue.
Video of the Day: The Struts – Primadonna Like Me
Pound for pound our favorite new band. These guys get it. Great music chops, cool image, and they are starting to build a stable of videos to complement an already ready for prime time all around package. Here is their latest video.
Live Video of the Day: The Lemon Twigs – The Fire (Jimmy Kimmel Live)
We still don’t quite know how to wrap our ears around this band. They look glam, but aren’t quite. They dress retro 70’s Rock, but sound pretty Indie. They definitely have a swagger about them. Ladies and Gentlemen, The Lemon Twigs.
