The Best Black Rock Bands

A list of the best black rock bands including a few afro-punk and black alternative bands. I While black rock musicians and afro-punks might only be a minority within the United States, remember that in other regions such as South America and Africa, they're the majority. The real irony though of black rock is that rock itself is derived from Rock 'n' Roll, which in turn was derived from african-american jazz and blues. One could argue then that black rock forms a direct line back to rock's true origins. The artists on this list are some of the best out there-- in any genre.
