    Well of course. What girl wouldn't be bowled over by these lyrics?

    Raining blood
    From a lacerated sky
    Bleeding its horror
    Creating my structure
    Now I shall reign in blood!
    :D

    Check out Black Stone Cherry's latest album, it leans more in that direction, with hints of southern rock :) Theory of a Deadman would also be very similar to the likes of Shinedown.

    I'm not sure which modern bands count as soft rock.
    I would have immediately thought:

    REO Speedwagon
    Chicago
    Styx
    Heart
    Sutherland Bros and Quiver
    Fleetwood Mac
    Eric Carmen

    Would Coldplay, The Script, Snow Patrol and Keane not be considered soft rock?

    Incubus and Stonesour are cool. Also, Hollywood Undead (More rap fused with rock).

    If you like Skillet, then you might like Hinder."The Best Is Yet To Come" is my favourite song by them. :)

    Have a look at the genre map someone posted yesterday, maybe look at the Funk Rock or Nu-Metal genres here:

    http://www.furia.com/misc/genremaps/engenremap-funkrock.html

    http://www.furia.com/misc/genremaps/engenremap-numetal.html

    Might discover something there (you can click on most artists to here a sample).

    the Foo Fighters.
    Genesis
    System of a Down
    Staind
    Terrorvision
    Red Hot Chilli Peppers
    Green day

    Perhaps not all could be termed as real soft rock - but then I wouldn;t have said Linkin Park are obviously soft-rock material either.
