Puscifer

Puscifer is a side project of Maynard James Keenan. They are a bit different from his other bands Tool and A Perfect Circle, though they do have their similarities. Puscifer seems to me to be more eccentric and darker than the rest of the stuff Keenan has produced. His first album, "V is for Vagina," did fairly well, though I did feel it was an underrated album. Their newest song, "The Mission," is looking to be a good start to what could be a new album.

Hinder, Pop Evil, Anew Revolution

Hinder made their return with their latest album, "Take it to the Limit," which was released on November 4th of last year. Their first single, "Use Me," made waves across the nation, gaining national recognition, and even reaching the 3rd place on the U.S. main rock charts. Their newest single, "Up All Night," strives to gain the same recognition. Judging from a few listenings of the song, I wouldn't be suprised if it did.

Pop evil is an up and coming mainstream band. Though they have been around since 2001, they have not received much recognition until late last year. They are currently rising up fast in the industry, however, which singles such as "Hero," "Somebody Like You," and this one..."100 in a 55."



Anew Revolution is also an up and coming band. They, not unlike Pop Evil, are just beginning to be heard across the nation mainstream. Their first single, "Done," was fairly popular, and their newest single, "Generation," helps to push them over the edge.

Hoobastank, Red, Papa Roach

Red is a fairly new, up and coming christian rock band that is really starting to make waves in the rock industry. With catchy rhythms and a great singer heading the band, it is easy to see why these guys are rising fast. It never really occured to me that these guys were a christian rock band until I really heard about it. Most of you might know these guys from their most known single, "Already Over." Today I will bring you a new song off their newest album set to be released February 10th, 2009 entitled, "Death of Me."



Hoobastank is marking their return on January 27th with their newest album, "For(N)ever." Most known for their hit single, "The Reason," their latest single is a bit more upbeat. It is entitled, "My turn."

Papa Roach is also making their first album since 2006 which is set to be released in March of this year. I recently heard their newest single and was impressed enough with it to share it with you guys. Let me know what you think. This is, "Hollywood Whore."
