Black Rebel Motorcycle Club May 19, 2007

This alt-rock band's founders, San Francisco natives Robert Turner and Peter Hayes, forged a camaraderie based on their mutual love of '90s U.K. bands and ultimately formed a band whose name is based on the Marlon Brando-led biker gang from 'The Wild One.' Eastern Conference Champions have built a steady buzz through heavy touring and an recognizable sound. The Horrors have found a cure for their midwestern boredom: making obnoxious, intrusive rock 'n' roll music.
