Rock isn't dead, it's just not very popular, even here on /mu/ where there's no excuse to not know about good current rock releases
Post good rock albums that have come out this year. I'll start!

This is much much heavier, although I would still consider it a descendant of punk rock moreso than heavy metal.
Video is really cool too

Beehoover is German two piece (drums and bass guitar). At a glance it might sound like a stripped down Tool fronted by Serj Tankian, but these guys go all over the place.

Rock is dead because is compltely drained. There's nothing new to add on that genre. Every new act that appears is just rehashed shit.

This has been said throughout history of every genre of every artform ever, and yet they seem to persist and yield works that are in retrospect considered great.

Explain how any of the music you consider great has this property.

Rock has gone the way of Jazz; Hip Hop is next.

Really? I listened to that song and it was pretty saccharine.
Okay let's move beyond just this year in the interest of hooking you up with the best shit.
Last year saw the release of an album that was in my opinion a 10/10 masterpiece that would be revered on a par with classic Zeppelin or The Who had it come out back in the day.

One of the premier rock bands in the world right now is Colour Haze. They have a wealth of material. The single best live act I've ever experienced.

This is a prog rock band from Russia that puts out like 3-4 albums a year.
