Rap/Hip Hop has been slacking lately so I have been trying to listen to some rock. Problem is I don't really know much. Can you guys suggest me somesongs. Here is what I been listening to so far.

Green Day- Time Of Your Life
Red Hot Chilli Peppers- Give It Away
Nirvana-Smells Like Team Spirt
Alien Ant Farm- Smooth Criminal
 
The "What song u bumpin rye now?" thread is great for this.

They put me on to Minus The Bear "Knights" and now I can't stop listening to them.
