Oh lemme help out some more with this: MC5: Maybe some Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: Probably throw some Japandroids in there: Then I'm going to leave it to Titus Andronicus to bring it home: I don't know what to classify this genre usually it's somewhere between "Garage Rock" and "LOUD DISTORTED GUITAR NOISES WITH A SIMPLE BLUES RIFF"
This is one of the most spot-on to what I'm thinkin, thanks! Much more of an mass-appeal grind even though it's loud. Love Black Rebel Motorcycle Club btw, I just missed seeing them live:/
My wife is really into this genre, I can look through her music later and see what else I can dig up! I've seen BRMC a few times now, never been disappointed. Their drummer recently had brain surgery though and I haven't heard if she's going to continue with them or not :(
