We’re back with another installment of 7 Rock songs you need to hear right now and April’s picks are songs you’re going to want to listen to loud.

From veteran rockers, to bands we haven’t heard from in some time, and newcomers that have burst onto the scene, here are 7 Rock songs that need to be added to your playlist right now.

Korn - Worst Is On It's Way

Korn returned with their fourteenth studio album Requiem earlier in the year as “Worst Is On It’s Way” closed out the album with a bang. If you want to catch Korn in concert this summer, they’re teaming up with Evanescence for a massive tour. Check out the full list of dates here.

Bad Wolves - If Tomorrow Never Comes

The song is part of the upcoming film The Retaliators as the music video offers a short preview clip from the movie. The hard rocking song serves as the perfect soundtrack to the film as various clips from the movie are teased throughout the music video.

Slash (feat. Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators) - April Fool

If you’re here for some fierce riffs then this is the song for you. Coming from Slash’s fourth album with Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, Slash has gone on record stating the album was made with the live setting in mind. This track certainly lives up to the powerful live performances we’ve come to love from Slash.

Dirty Honey - Another Last Time

Dirty Honey is back with another hard hitting track as “Another Last Time” will get your head bobbing from the very first notes. Dirty Honey recently wrapped up the appropriately titled Young Guns Tour with Mammoth WVH. Check out our conversation with frontman Marc LaBelle as he revealed how the tour came about.

Def Leppard - Kick

It’s been seven years since we last had a new album from Def Leppard, but that’s all about to change. “Kick” is the ferocious new track off the band’s upcoming 12th studio album Diamond Star Halos, which is due for a May 27 release. Catch Def Leppard on tour this summer alongside Mötley Crüe, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, and Poison for the highly-anticipated Stadium Tour.

Plush - Better Off Alone

Plush waste no time and dive right into epicness with their infectious track “Better Off Alone.” The anthemic chorus is one you’ll be singing on repeat for days on end. Plush is set to hit the road later this month for an extensive tour as they support Sevendust.

The Warning - Money

Sisters Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal of The Warning are here with their ferocious new track “MONEY,” which features a music video shot at Foro Sol in Mexico City when they recently opened for Foo Fighters.
