Probably one of the most underrated bands of the last several years. Versatile rock n' roll is the best way I can describe them. They've released two albums under the Parlor Mob name(formerly What About Frank?,) each of them possessing a wide variety of sounds and influences.

With their first record I grew to the opinion that they were part of the rock revolution(along with Wolfmother, Airbourne, Gordon Fights, ect,) that has taken it's rise. The first album, And You Were A Crow, has a strong rebellious impact or stick to your guns, solid rock. There are powerful tracks that remind me of Black Sabbath, and acoustic jams in par with Led Zeppelin III. Here's my favorite from the album:

Their second release, Dogs, is what got me in their chains. It has many different levels that are powerful, beautiful, and downright fucked up. It's groovy, sharp, and a huge step from their first release, without taking them in the wrong direction. This song is my favorite out of their entire collection:

Give them a listen, comment, and enjoy.
