7 Rock Songs You Need to Hear Right Now

The Swedish metal group will be releasing their eighth studio album Hunter Gatherer on August 7 and when they dropped “Colossus,” it left us even more excited to hear what else is to come. On top of that, the “Colossus” music video is awesome.

The Scottish outfit treated fans to this song back in February and it’s still a staple on our playlist. Their album A Celebration of Endings was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but is set to be released on August 14.

The Seattle musician’s incredible guitar work is on full display in “Take Me Away” as is his ability to create raw emotion in his songwriting.

The Canadian rockers have an earworm on their hands with “Done With Drugs” with their pop-punk sound reminiscent of Blink-182.

Perhaps the most impressive part of the band is the powerful sound they’re able to attain with only three members. The group blends punk with Hip Hop that draws influence from Rage Against the Machine, Public Enemy, and Black Flag.

The Canadian songwriter has started to gain traction here in America with her infectious roots rock sound. This one’s a foot-stomper that needs to be listened to loud.

The band describes their music as “cinematic rock” and if you’re looking for a layered sound that continues to evolve, you’ve come to the right place. “Trials” is a track we’re playing on repeat all while closing our eyes imagining it scoring a climatic movie scene.
