Help! In Need Of New Rock Music Genre

    I've been listening to mixes I made in the first few years of the 2010s and noticed how many more bands I was listening to back then. Indie rock, alt, pop-punk, heavier stuff, just had a pretty high percentage of bands rather than singular artists.

    I am plenty content with all the amazing pop, hip-hop, r&B, electronic, etc etc that is popular now, and LOVE so many new artists I have been finding, but I just have realized there are very few new bands I have been listening to.

    So I ask ya'll, can I get some suggestions of some great new bands? I feel very well acquainted with bands who have been around long enough to have multiple albums, legacy acts, older artists... but I feel like over the past few years I have only found 2-3 NEW bands that I love each year, which feels kinda weird being someone who grew up on more rock-oriented music.

    Any genre, hard, soft, whatever... who can recommend some bands that they love from the last few years? Maybe someone who have only released an album or two, or maybe just singles, whatever.

    Help.

    Damn I saw this thread title and thought it was a bot. Anyway, three bands I really like from the past few years are Teenage Wrist, Supercrush, and Born Without Bones

    I actually thought the same thing and I wrote the damn thing. Never heard of ANY of these bands, which excites me. Have any key tracks from them to check out?

    How do I threadban someone?

    The new Fake Names record isn't too bad, UMMON by Slift is weird but good too

    hey you lil piss baby

    Not exactly a band, but the new Yves Tumor is great Rock Music


    Obviously Big Thief, the best band in the world






    (Maybe none of these will work for you considering how often our opinions diverge elsewhere but worth a shot)

    not much heavier than ETID for the most part, something like Turnstile is one of the few heavier bands I've liked recently

    I dig this one, it actually reminded me of Sherwood a lot melodically, specifically this song
