Last week’s Rockucation question was: Can you name at least 5 bands or artists (Rock and Metal only) that came from Massachusetts? I have to say I was surprised that no one came up with 5 bands. Most of you had 4 and maybe a local act. But here are a few, just so you are in the know. Aerosmith, Boston, Cars, Dispatch, Dropkick Murphy’s, Extreme, The Fools, Godsmack, J. Geils Band, Jon Butcher Axis, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The Pixies, Rev Theory, Staind and many more.

New Megadeth: Built For War. Another great track. You can listen to it here: http://www.grammy.com/news/grammycom-exclusive-first-listen-megadeth
