15 more great new bands to get your teeth into, including Valentiine, Voodoo Six, Four Wheel Drive, The Graveltones and many more ...
presented with Classic Rock Magazine 186 with a free collector’s edition fold-out ‘Sabbath cross’ cover.

01 THE HOWLING – Pitbull Meet the new attack dogs of gobby, bad-attitude electronic punk. Charging out of the traps first out is this debut single by the band formed by The Rev, guitarist with the ill-fated Towers Of London and (briefly) The Prodigy. It ain't subtle or pretty, but it is brutally exciting.

02 OZONE MAMA - I Really Care How many decent Hungarian rock bands can you name? Or any Hungarian rock bands, for that matter? Well, here's one you might be unfamiliar with. This Budapest-based four-piece released their debut album The Starship Has Landed in 2010, and have plans to take this sort of foot-to-the-floor, 80s-influenced rock further in 2013.

03 LOVE AND A .38 - Just A Woman This LA band released a great version of Corey Hart's classic Sunglasses At Night as a single last year, and this is the adroitly arranged follow-up, which builds from a smoky-bluesy intro into a proper air-punching anthem. Incidentally, their drummer has a proper rock star name too: Danny Excess.

04 THE GRAVELTONES - Catch Me On The Fly A piece of jumpin', jivin', old-school rock from an Aussie duo whose backstory is suitable romantic (they apparently met each other in Tin Pan Alley). We might be overstaffed by blues-rock duos in the Keys/Stripes mould at present, but this pair do it with a style and cheeky panache that's all their own.

05 FOUR WHEEL DRIVE - Hammered Again It opens to the sound of glasses clinking, beer being poured and a party getting into full swing. Few tracks habe been able to condense the pleasure of unbridled hedonism as concisely as this.

06 VALENTIINE - Chucky It's a subject that has been sadly neglected by rock lyricists down the years. What? Puking, of course. So here are three young ladies from Melbourne to correct that oversight. Valentiine (note the double 'i') recently signed to renowned punk label Integrity Records, and on this evidence they're more than ready to vomit their scuzzy garage rock in the direction of the wider world.

07 STONERIDER – Say I Won't These Atlanta-based stoner rockers formed around the middle of last decade and released their debut album in 2008. Say I Won't has some soulful backing vocals, and a great coda that makes you wonder why more bands don't cut loose towards the end of songs more often.

08 DU BELLOWS - Isa Du Bellow Two London musicians - TJ and Jade - meet at an open-mic night, click and start making plaintive, thoughtful tracks like this. That's the backstory to Du Bellows, who combine folk, blues and rock influences without resorting to cliché. Jimmy Page has described them as "one of the most interesting and musically adept" bands he's seen recently.

09 DELTA RIGGS - Money "A rock'n'roll band of the people, for the people," Delta Riggs proclaim proudly on their website. These Aussies certainly have the potential to find the mainstream rock audience's G-spot and pick up the psych-y garage baton from compatriots like Jet and Wolfmother.

10 ORCHID - Leaving It All Behind Over the years there have been numerous bands called Orchid. This one is a San Francisco-based hard-rock outfit that genuflect at the altar of early Black Sabbath. The brilliantly doomy Leaving It All Behind is one of the highlights from their current album.

11 BAD BARBER - Closer To The Sun Swedish newcomers who mix soulful vocals, inventive guitar lines and a musical dexterity that should make many a band blush in shame - check out how this track slips between Chili Peppers-style rock and languid cocktail funk. Incredibly, they're still unsigned.

12 MIDNIGHT SPIN - Neuroin The phrase 'punk pop' might throw up mental images of countless sub-Blink 182 bands, but maybe it's time to think again. Midnight Spin are a New York five-piece who combine hard riffing with some delicious melodies and sweet backing vocals to make the conjunction of those two words perfectly sum up their invigorating racket.

13 VOODOO SIX - Brick Wall They've served their apprenticeship on the British hard-rock scene, and this London-based five-piece now look ready to stake a claim for success. With a support slot on Iron Maiden's summer tour and the brilliantly named third album Songs To Invade Countries To ready to go, 2013 looks like it could finally be their breakthrough year.

14 KING OF THE NORTH - Ruby No, not the Kaiser Chiefs song. This Ruby is a churning blues-rock number from a guitar-and-drums duo from Adelaide. Unlike similar groups, there's nothing stripped down about this pair, who have such a densely layered, effects-enhanced sound that it's to hard to believe it comes from just two people.

15 SCREAMING EAGLES - Rock N' Roll Soul Finally, here's a defiant-sounding cri de coeur from these Northern Irish newcomers. Rock N' Roll Soul is one of the stand-outs on the band's self-released debut From The Flames. Think AC/DC fronted by a Paul-Rodgers-style vocalist and you're somewhere in their neighbourhood.
