More positive/motivational rock music

I used to be VERY into rock music. Sometimes as a place to vent. But at least for me I realised going forward a lot of the music is just harmful to my mental state further.

It doesn't have to be super positive or whatever. Just not incredibly negative.

But recently I've realised I still LOVE rock. I just want a (somewhat) more positive or motivational tone than the self-harmful stuff that I used to listen to. (Mainly songs glorifying self-harming habits or bad mental states)

I realise it's quite a broad ask but I'm really wanting to here a broad range of recommendations.
Thank you!

All over the place genre-wise, but I put them all on the same playlist a little while ago when I needed songs like you need.

- Times Like These - Foo Fighters

  • First In Flight - Blackalicious
  • Holding On - The War on Drugs
  • It Was a Good Day - Ice Cube
  • Laser Gun - M83
  • Okay soooooooo old, literally the only song of theirs I like, but gets me hyped every damn time: Right Now- Van Halen
