Let's be honest, no one gets excited at the prospect of yet another Indie band. Pop punk and that type of stuff is popular at the minute though, but it's a bit too faggy and only really appeals to teenage girls and soibois.
Maybe the solution to rock being dead at the moment is a hard rock band, one which will have crossover appeal to normies, similar to QOTSA, Foo Fighters, Royal Blood, Biffy Clyro, Bring Me The Horizon, etc.
The next “band” to become popular is going to fuse a few different genres together. Everyone’s sick of the Mac Demarco clones who drown everything in chorus and reverb, no one wants another shit hard rock band with no substance, even shoegaze is slowly dying. People want to hear something new done with guitars and drums.
People got sick of post punk in like 2006 when they grew bored of all these Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand clones.
Psychedelic? You mean these soiboi bands who just use reverb with everything? Yawn.

For the love of fuck, Interpol, Bloc, and Franz are not post-punk. "Post-Punk Revival" is some poser genre. Actual new post-punk isn't even called as such.
Jackson Hall
The auditory equivalent of dogshit drying in the sun. Fuck off.

>judges tracks after 10 seconds of listening You should learn an instrument buddy. Maybe then you'll learn how music works.
Leo Turner
Your band is awful learn how to tune your guitar
Dylan Kelly
Singer sounds like the dude from Maximo Park
Juan Sullivan
There's already lots of great hard rock happening right now, in the form of death metal, crust punk, garage rock, metalcore, etc. If you want a more traditional hard rock band, form one and stop complaining about what other people are doing.
Xavier Gomez
This is some serious projecting. Cringe.
Ryan Morales
Rock will never be mainstream again, just like disco or chamber music will never be mainstream again. Attempts at reviving genres are sterile, and people who still write power metal or pop punk ballads deserve the rope. Rock music is still very much alive and creative, it's just more underground.

>telling someone to learn an instrument is projecting what, i think youre stretching that word a bit too far buddy
Elijah Anderson
>calls someone boomer >listens to unironic revivals of bands that had their day 40 years old
Alexander Hughes
Rock music needs a better image. Some cool, young, entertaining person needs to front a rock band that people actually find interesting. No teenagers want to see some 40 year old who was popular years ago like Dave Grohl or Jack White, they want someone who they see as being as badass as soundcloud rappers
Camden Robinson
>Biffy Clyro >Hard Rock not since infinity land lmao
Luke Brooks
Honestly hardcore is what the younger crowd and generation is listening to right now. Those are the shows that get packed and go wild.
Anthony Butler
You can't save rock because youthful rebellion has been gameified against youth. Every drug dealer is essentially a CIA shill. For this reason the lawless people of society in 2019 are really the biggest cocksucking faggots of all.
Henry Jackson
We are living in a cursed timeline where RHCP is popular and Mr Bungle is not. Remember this.
Connor Ward
The fact that people are trying to figure out what will revive rock and save it are what proves that it's dead and done for, self fulfilling prophecy, good riddance
