I like that too more than the rest of the list. If you haven't

Queen - A Night At The Opera

Radiohead - 15 Step, Ok Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac

Pink Floyd Dark Side of The Moon, The Wall, Meddle, Animals (actually my favorite) , Wish You Were Here. Those are my favs.

Also based on those three artists check out the albums "Selling England By The Pound" "Foxtrot" and "The Lb Dies Down on Broadway" by Genesis

Also the album "Leftoverture" by Kansas.

You should like Nine Inch Nails albums "Year Zero" and especially "The Fragile" based on what you posted. The other NiN may be too dark since you dont have much dark stuff but you do have Linkin Park so I mention NiN. Linkin Park and Pink Floyd were starting points for me. I quickly never listened to Linkin Park again though, just not as interesting to me anymore. I still think those Floyd Albums are some of the best ever made.

Sorry I don't mean to seem like I am talking down on some other stuff. I joke around and call everything pop at least once

Its a start. Its all good just a very non-specific list there. After RHCP listen to Mr.Bungle. After The Eagles listen to Joe Walsh. After Coldplay listen to more Radiohead. After Linkin Park listen to Nine Inch Nails. I think you catch my drift. Also I would say you should have the album Ten by Pearl Jam if you are just going with big albums.

Reason I say that I just think a lot of the popular bands people know are just a watered down version of something else in order for marketability.

Na this should be. It is a cover of a Queen song but Laibach did it better. Same positive message too!

God works in mysterious ways Mysterious ways Ah Hey! One man, one goal Ha, one mission One heart, one soul Just one solution One flash of light Yeah, one god, one vision One flesh, one bone, one true religion One voice, one hope, one real decision Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Give me one vision, yeah No wrong, no right I'm gonna tell you there's no black and no white No blood, no stain All we need is (one worldwide vision) One flesh, one bone, one true religion One race, one hope, one real decision Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa-yeah, whoa-yeah, oh yeah! I had a dream when I was young A dream of sweet illusion A glimpse of hope and unity And visions of one sweet union But a cold wind blows and a dark rain falls And in my heart, it shows Look what they've done to my dream, yeah! One vision So give me your hands, give me your hearts I'm ready! There's only one direction One world and one nation Yeah, one vision No hate, no fight, just excitation All through the night it's a celebration Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah One, one, one, one, one, one, one One flesh, one bone, one true religion One voice, one hope, one real decision Give me one light, yeah Give me one hope, hey Just give me, ah One man, one man One bar, one night One day, hey, hey Just gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme fried chicken! Vision, vision, vision, vision

Personally I think it may just be cynical boomer bait. Sorry but the spirit and mover of rock music is not trying to sound shit your grandparents listened to. Reminds me of guys my age who now as men cosplay as badasses by dressing up like my grandparents who are bikers. It doesn't make you look badass it makes you look like my grandma.

That means it dies though. These are just cycles though so I am just saying when oversaturation occurs to its own detriment. You go too mainstream and it runs the risk of becoming a joke like blues guitarists or glam metal along with at the same time obscuring creative artists who will be influencing the next wave

No. A basis of rock is blues. These folks drove the blues music into the ground to the point where it has restricted them. Even us guitar players make fun of it now. The new rock will shed it's blues roots I think and be more unrecognizable. I see a great shift in poplarity and influence in stuff that is clearly very rock based but has shedded its blues basis, bands like Infected Mushroom, Meshuggah. Sorry but I am under the impression Greta Van Fleet and Ghost are just boomer bait and not meaningful contributions to movement at all. The existence of Jack Black and that popularity is a sign it the old ways of "classic rock" became a parody of itself. You will also be able to see a huge growth in more creative means to this end since now entire studios can fit on your lap.

The early days of rock are clear and they were blues based they beat it into the ground and now the direction is being taken many different places.

I am not a historian but am a huge music fan and musician who plays music from before written history to now. People do a thing, then someone else comes along and does it extremely well so everyone likes that, then everyone does that, over saturation occurs then people use those same methods but to meet a different end as a rejection of what was done before. Those people who do it as a rejection do it extremely well and the cycle repeats. Like the spirit of classical music rock won't die but it may become unrecognizable to its former self

Don't forget Laibach. A lot of Laibach is in German too and later on when they do post-industrial/neoclassical it will be softer.

Rammstein got the singing style from Laibach, I like both. Einstürzende Neubauten has a lot of softer stuff later too. Try the last few albums there for sure.
