Just a query really about what fairly new bands people think i may find worth listening to.

Basically been a metalhead for about 20 years and enjoy the following among others.

Iron Maiden (Obviously)
AC/DC
Metallica
Megadeth
Aerosmith
Foo Fighters
Queensryche
Pagan's Mind
Van Halen
Kiss

I am also a metalhead

Not a new band but they released a new CD in May, The Deftones. I have been a Deftones fan since their first cd Adrenaline.

Diamond Eyes their latest release is a gem !

Besides metal there a lot of great straight up rock and roll bands out there.

Metalhead still ..or evolving?
I like Iced Earth


Firewind


Hammerfall


Metal is still alive and well in some parts of the world.
As for evolving out of metal..perhaps into rock..hmmm...
3 Days Grace (my fav)

Dead by Sunrise


Apocalyptica


Linkin Park

Thanks Kyle, Whaaa and Access Denied....will check these out when i get home from work.

Liking the Deftones recommendations...not sure how i missed these guys, but rectifying the situation.

Also, although Metal is my first love I am open to the Rock side of things and have in the past seen bands such as the Stereophonics iand Rush in concert and enjoyed very much.

OK so far so good and liking all the suggestions....any others?...anyone know any really new unsigned bands?...maybe you and your mates?...especially if in the UK

Dude check out Volbeat they are one of my favorites, The sound is like if Elivs and Johnny Cash had a baby together and that baby met Metallica and They had a baby then that would be volbeat! They are from Denmark.

Worth a listen.







Hope you enjoy, Cheers!
