Do not mind anything that anyone tells you about modern rock and what is not modern rock. It just starts with late 1970s punk (some thinks INXS, The Cure, Morrissey, Depeche Mode, and Erasure as modern rock artists during the 1980s), and modern rock is all about to leave classic rock on your back... I'm not sure that these are all modern rock. Anyway, these albums are damn fucking great!
