Five Cool Ones: Five (More) Reasons That Rock Is Not Dead

The state of rock music in 2023 is definitely destination full speed ahead. If The Rolling Stones can put out an album that is actually ferocious, there is hope for the world.

Here are five particular cool platters that we have been vibing to at Rock is the New Roll.

Black Spiders – Hot Wheels

Every song from their 2023 record Can’t Die Won’t Die is a scorcher with the monster riffs and gang vocals on “Hot Wheels” standing out.

The Struts – Rockstar

Unrelenting glamsters, Luke Spiller and The Struts offer up an addicting form of Rock and Roll on this arena-worthy gem.

Kelsy Karter & The Heroines – Love Goes On

New Zealand rocker Kelsy Karter delivers a Def Leppard worthy sugar pop frenzy on this one.

The Cold Stares – Cross The Line

Mixing Blues, Southern, and Hard Rock, The Cold Stares amped up from a duo to a power trio on this stomper.

Gypsy Pistoleros – Come On Eileen

Ears down the best Rock cover song of the year, Gypsy Pistoleros wear the mantle of best Glam, Flamenco, Rock band proudly.

Video of the Day: Gypsy Pistoleros – Come On Eileen

Gypsy Pistoleros, the self proclaimed, and who are we to argue, worlds greatest Flamenco Punk Glam Rock band ever, has just scorched the earth with an in incendiary version of the iconic Dexy’s classic. Word on the streets is that Eileen loves this version and finally has decided to come on.

Video of the Day: Gypsy Pistoleros – A Town Called Nowhere

Self described as the worlds greatest Punk, Flamenco, Punk, Rock, Glam band ever, and after listening to a few songs from their catalog, there is no argument here.

The sound is high energy T Rex meets The Ramones, by way of The Dropkick Murphy’s, and a dusting of The Cure if fronted by Billy Idol thrown in for good measure, with a soundscape that is worthy of a Quentin Tarantino movie soundtrack should he ever make a vampire movie.

A single, “What It’s Like To Be A Girl” is scheduled to see the light of ear on June 23’rd in advance of their album, Duende A Go Go Loco.

In the meantime, check out their 2020 album The Greatest Flamenco Sleaze Glam Band Ever!

After an immersive listen of this one, you will finding yourself heading to From Dusk ‘Till Dawn’s Titty Twister cantina embalming yourself in mescal margaritas and a table dance. Their version of “Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves” is worth the price of admission alone.
