I wouldn't say rock, nor alternative.. Maybe dance/house/synthpop

Sidenote: they are swedes
 
My song for today Saturday is "Try" by Pink.

"You've gotta get up
and try try try ..."

W.A.S.P., "I'm Alive"

W.A.S.P., "I'm Alive"

Because I'm in one of those moods ....

I — I'm still alive, and I am a soul survivor.
You can't understand why
I — I'm still alive, and I am a soul survivor.
Damn you, holy man, alive!​

I've been listening to a lot of old metal, lately. Seriously, put on a mix of W.A.S.P., Dio, GnR, and so on, and it really is a blast from the past.

My favorite is "Widowmaker," but "Bang Your Head" is an icon. "The Headless Children" isn't going to make anybody bang their heads, but it was a decent song and a surprisingly good observation on what was (and still is) wrong with America. We saw W.A.S.P. back in the day, with Billy Squier as the opening act. Quite a double bill!

They're still out there. My friend's son's death-metal band opened for them at a bring-back-the-metal fair last year.

Nothin' like old metal. Triumph, Yngvie Malmsteen, Baker-Gurvitz Army, the Cult, Deep Purple, Television, AC/DC, Blue Oyster Cult (before they sold out and got "Don't Fear the Reaper" on AM radio). Of course Black Sabbath (the original lineup) has no peer. Even Ozzy's first couple of solo albums are classics. Def Leppard lost their way pretty quickly, but while they were hot they were sure hot, with that snare-drum-from-hell sound.

Kingdom Come showed some promise before vanishing. Dream Theater is a prog band on record, but their live shows are strictly for metalheads.

European bands tend to just dabble in genres, but they're really disciplined and Krokus and the Scorpions did some killer metal while they were in the mood for it.

I have always regarded Cream as the first heavy metal band, although the term hadn't been coined yet. "Sunshine of Your Love," "Strange Brew," "SWLABR" (she was like a bearded rainbow)--is that metal or what? Hendrix was into it too.
 
Heroin by The Velvet Underground

The Velvet Underground was an American rock band formed in New York City. First active from 1964 to 1973, their best-known members were Lou Reed and John Cale, who both went on to find success as solo artists. Although experiencing little commercial success while together, the band is often cited by many critics as one of the most important and influential groups of the 1960s.[1] In a 1982 interview Brian Eno made the often repeated statement that while the first Velvet Underground album may have sold only 30,000 copies in its early years, "everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band."[2]
