Top tunes from the first half of 2012, with tracks from equally top artists including Def Leppard, ZZ Top, The Darkness and Asia.
01 ZZ TOP - I gotsta Get Paid In the nine years since ZZ Top released their Mescalero album the rock scene has felt a little drab, clean-shaven and small-hatted. All change, as the sharp-dressed Texan trio return with a new album and this zeitgeist-humping, hip-hop-inspired teaser. You gotsta hear it!
Taken from: Texicali EP (digital-only release)
0 THE DARKNESS - Nothin's Gonna Stop Us They'll choke on that song title if the comeback goes tits-up, but the sugarbomb hooks of Nothin's Gonna Stop Us suggest Justin Hawkins will soon be riding stuffed tigers over stadium audiences. The Darkness are back - whether you like it or not.
Taken from: Hot Cakes (Wind Up)
03 CORY BRANAN - Survivor Blues "I always thought it was kinda like my Born To Run," Mississippi road-dog Cory Branan says of this song, his ode to lovers crushed by life, "but the guy and girl in the song have pretty significant pasts and they know that running away isn't gonna do any good."
Taken from: Mutt (Bloodshot)
04 MARK TREMONTI - Leave It Alone With both his other bands - Alter Bridge and Creed - failing to scratch the songwriting itch, hard rock's pre-eminent guitar hero has shaken out his scrapbook to record his solo debut album, All I Was, whose riffs will have you picking your teeth up in a handkerchief. Try this track for starters.

05 HOWLIN RAIN - Strange Thunder Adverse weather conditions never sounded so sweet, as Strange Thunder rolls from ethereal chords and West Coast choirboy vocals to the kind of epic climax that makes grown men shiver. Even at nine minutes, it never outstays its welcome.
Taken from: The Russion Wilds (Agitated)
06 DEF LEPPARD - It's All About Believin' Tacked on to last year's Mirrorball live album and released as a digital single earlier in 2012, this studio track proves that modern-day Leppard haven't lost their claws, coming on like U2 fronted by Jon Bon Jovi, with a chorus that almost displaces Don't Stop Believin' as the official soundtrack to blind optimism.
Taken from: Mirrorball (Bludgeon Riffola)
07 PHANTOM LIMB - Gravy Train Time and place make little odds to Phantom Limb, the fast-rising Bristol band whose sepia-tinted blend of vintage country and R&B is given wings by Yolanda Quartey's West Coast holler. Much like a real phantom limb, you'll still be feeling like the gorgeous Gravy Train is still there long after it's gone.
Taken from: The Pines (Naim Edge)
08 VON HERTZEN BROTHERS - Let Thy Will Be Done With a title lifted from the Lord's Prayer, a riff worthy of vintage Chili Peppers and a chorus rooted in golden-era prog, Let Thy Will Be Done originally lit up the Approach album in 2006, and made its UK debut by way of a new 'Best of' this year.
Taken from: The Best Of The Von Hertzen Bros (Spinefarm)
09 SQUACKETT - Storm Chaser Squacket are as formidable musically as you'd hope from the marriage of prog heavyweights Chris Squire and Steve Hackett. The former Genesis guitarist describes the incredients as "clever prog stuff", "jazzy bits" and "vocal harmonies". Storm Chaser has all three.
