Quick 5: Five Rock Tracks You Should Listen To Now

We have made the conscious decision to start 2010 right, so here are five songs that you need to hear. Now.

 

Slipknot - Snuff

Although it is not a brand new song, Snuff is still worth mentioning. The fifth single from album, All Hope Is Gone, this dark ballad explores pain and self-discovery.

 

Breaking Benjamin - Give Me a Sign

The second single from the band's newest album, Dear Agony, provides us with a track that sticks with you long after the last notes have been played.

 

Sick Puppies - Odd One

The newest single from album, Tri-Polar, boasts an odd time signature, a great melody, and a message everyone needs to hear once in a while.

 

Manchester Orchestra - Shake it Out

This band seems to have appeared out of nowhere, though they have already garnered themselves a following; if they continue to put out great music, they'll be around for a long time.

30 Seconds to Mars - Kings and Queens

This is the first single off album, This Is War, and a clear indication that this band continues to take steps in the right direction.
