Every "hard" rock station we get here plays basically pop music. I hate it. Occasionally good songs, but rarely. That's why I invested heavily in FFDP albums.

There are tons of great bands out there, none of them are on the terrestrial radio stations. The days of payola are gone, I'll just purchase a 3 minute commercial spot and play my song instead, then its legally purchased commercial time.
Keep in mind, almost none of the bands that you mentioned in this thread were the most popular bands in their time. Nirvana had 1 top ten hit in the US (Smells Like Teen Spirit) and it only hit #6. Now go to an Alice Cooper concert and watch Orianthi tear it up on guitar, that broad can wail.

AX7 is awesome live, FFDP Kicks Ass as well..
Steel Panther's Death to all but Metal/Community Property are funny as hell. I would post Community Property Video, but I'm sure I would get the ban hammer.. Look for the explicit video if you dare.. As far as Nickleback goes, they tear it up live. My wife is a big fan, so I took her to a show, and I was in awe, those guys give you your money's worth. I miss White Zombie, yes, I know Rob Zombie is still kicking it, but White Zombie is where it's at IMO!!

Distillers, Social Distortion, Dead Kennedys and Slayer are real bands. Most anything played on main stream media these days is pretty much teenybopper music.
