Nice pick, Apostrophe ! You are probably one of the youngest next to Music Head, myself and Ibrahim !!!!

Isn't it a great tune? I can't help but hear Zeppelin through that whole song.

Camel - Ice (complete) Live - YouTube
Hey, I found the post that originally turned me onto Camel from Jerome. I know you/he were/was looking for it too.

Anyway, I like BCC but I don't think I'd call them saviors of rock for 2 main reasons.
1. I found their debut to be a good album but nothing great. There were some great songs but some duds as well I thought. BCC 2 was a great album though and by far my favorite of the year. I'm excited about a 3rd from them. They just need more Bonamassa vocal-led tracks... Hughes is too overbearing. As much as I like them, its hard to listen to them too often in one sitting. But that's just my opinion, of course.
2. The second reason I won't call them saviors is that rock is still flourishing. The underground rock scene is great and there have been some seriously great albums and bands working it for a while. There's nothing to save. Unless BCC became super mainstream and brought un-autotuned rock back to the mainstream, which they don't seem to be doing. :\
All in all though, a great band. Good to see them getting some due somewhere after everyone I've met slept on "2" this past year.

Nice post LMD ! Could you recommend a few underground rock groups that are fairly new ?

Of course. Expanding horizons is what brings us all here, right?
Few quick questions though;
1. What type of music are you into? Favorite artists, songs and genres and what not. Just so I can tailor the suggestions to what I think you'd actually like instead of rattling off names and having you suffer through 10-15 artists before finding one you sort of like. I'd try and look back at your posting history to get a better sense, but 2000+ posts is a lot of posts to go digging through. As time progresses I'll try my best to learn it.
2. Do you have a time-frame for fairly new?
3. Should we hijack this BCC thread or would this be better served in a new thread (Still getting used to how this place works. Don't want to step on any toes or anything.
