I'm not sure about "coming up" as they're pretty well known, but I like Hozier. They sing 'Take Me to Church' and 'Someone New', which are two of my favourites. You could also check out James Bay :)

There's X Ambassadors...but a it all depends on what kind of rock you're talking about :eusa-think:

I also agree about James Bay

I love We as human!
Great rock. Also, interesting use of idioms in the chorus of the song Strike Back.
Love their music videos as well.
An excellent choice :)

Walk the Moon - more of an Indie Rock band but really good
twenty one pilots- not even sure about what genre they are(;

Rock is definitely on the downhill in terms of rock that everyone will find enjoyable. Certain subgenres are doing very well with new bands, but a rock band that is new that the general public really likes is very hard to find.
For softer rock, William Beckett and Moose Blood (don't be off put by the name) are very good, along with Austin Jones.
For alternative rock/pop rock, Set It Off is a really good band.
Then Twenty One Pilots, The 1975 and Panic! At The Disco are good bets. Fall Out Boy took a nose dive when they forgot how to play guitar.

Rock isn't dead. Yes some amazing performers have died and their bands have had to accommodate that or break-up but it isn't dead. It has changed and expanded and lead to the formation of many new subgenres and bands.

My recommendation would primarily be to ask your son what he likes because it is such a large genre that you could go completely to the wrong end of the spectrum.

I agree with the above: Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Twenty One Pilots (my current favourite) are all really popular andestinations have released new albums quite recently. I wouldn't necessarily say that James Bay or Hozier are rock but it's the kind of music that anyone could listen to. I would also suggest Bring Me The Horizon, Of Mice and Men, Asking Alexandria for something a bit heavier.... Pierce the Veil and Sleeping With Sirens are also quite good.. Maybe Paramore, Royal Blood, Twin Atlantic, Biffy Clyro... Foo Fighters and Nirvana are well established but Nirvana won't be coming out with new songs anymore but like I said, ask! Or at least take a peak at his Spotify/iTunes

"Crossing Rubicon" is one that I was introduced to about a year ago. They are heartfelt and rock straight to the core!

Check out Cage the Elephant, Rise Against, The Zola's, Muse, Royal Blood, The Offspring, andThe Lumineers... I feel that is a good list of different types of rock...

Blink 182 is i think back in the music scene. FallOut Boy is amazing too, as well as Breaking Benjamin.

"Harry Styles" album by Harry Styles sounds like old rock and is really good. You can listen to that or you can make your son listen to it now. Fortunately rock is not dead.
