There has been an upsurge of talent in the music arena especially in the rock genre. With recent news of Coldplay finally coming to India to perform live at a concert doing the rounds yet again, we take a look at other bands which haven't toured the country so far and that absolutely should make a pit stop this year round.
AC/DC
The big daddies of rock and roll and metal are still breaking a leg with their outrageous performances around the world. While their contemporaries like Guns ân' Roses and Iron Maiden have touched Indian shores, in nearly 40 years of being on the road, we are yet to see the band perform live.
Pearl Jam
There's something about this band that has made it survive all these years with their faithful fans unflinching in their loyalty towards it. Their song writing ability and a supremely talented vocalist like Eddie Vedder has made them a band to reckon with.
Linkin Park
The band was huge in the late 90's and early 2000's, and still continues to be a household name. Even though they have never toured India, a concert by them is bound to bring in the crowds in staggering numbers.
Guns N' Roses
It's hard to find a rock music lover who doesn't jam to classic G N' R. While the band has visited India in 2013, we would love to see the now reunited classic line up complete with the magical duo of Axl and Slash perform live.
Arctic Monkeys
Another British rock band? Not really. Easily one of the most underrated bands of our generation, the Arctic Monkeys have made Indie, psychedelic music cool and how. Their all-hippie music and lifestyle is a huge draw and even a small tour by them is sure to be attended by multitudes of fans that have embraced their quirky, almost haunting music over the years.
