    You can't have rock songs without Led Zeppelin. Or Hendrix. Or Van Halen. You get the point.

    I'm going to make some guesses here. Stuff like Bullet for my valentine, 30 seconds to Mars maybe even AFI... those are in the same genres as BB

    If you really want to rock, you have to do it by genres. Here are a few of the best in a few genres that I listen to most of the time. PunkThe ClashThe RamonesBad ReligionBlues RockCreamBlack SabbathLed Zeppelin*******************PsychedelicPink FloydRushJimi Hendrix ExperiencePower Pop RockRolling StonesBeatlesThe WhoAC/DCVan HalenGrungePearl JamNirvanaSoundgardenAlice In ChainsPresent-DayRed Hot Chili PeppersWeezerThe White StripesDave Matthews BandThat should set you up for a while. If you like a certain genre more, make it known in the thread and I'm sure people will tell you more bands that sound like them. I love music and know a ton about a ton of bands. I might actaully know more about music than basketball.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (pjcolpitts? @ Jan 3 2007, 04:06 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Present-DayRed Hot Chili PeppersWeezerThe White StripesDave Matthews Band</div>Present-Day rock? I've never heard of this term before. I'd classify those bands as Alternative bands but each of them are quite different in their own right.I find it quite annoying how the term 'emo' has been blown out of proportion by the media. The stereotype of 'emo' bands are guys with long hair that cover their eyes who cry, whine and promote the use of self-harm. Many fans don't know but bands like Weezer and Jimmy Eat World were considered early emo bands. Bands like The Get Up Kids are emo but the media don't blame them for teenage suicides but instead point their fingers at bands like My Chemical Romance. All I'm saying is that a lot of bands are emo but are not frowned upon by the media because they do not have the same image. By no means am I trying to defend 'emo's' but the stereotype annoys me just a little when the audience judges a band by their appearance as opposed to their music.

Weezer in no way was ever considered emo. They've always been Alternative with punk influenences.
