By modern rock, I was discounting music with a lot of looping or keyboard/electronic elements. Here are some bands from the 80s through to te 00s, and I'm wondering if you could have made music similar to any of them in the 60s/70s with a similar production, minus any digital vocal effects (eg: Autotune) that may be present on recordings from c.1997 onwards:
Nirvana
Foo Fighters (90s era)
Husker Du (last 3 albums)
Pixies
Idlewild (first 3 albums)
The Connells (Ring era)
Green Day (39/Smooth - Dookie era)
The Dream Syndicate (giving them as an example since The Velvet Underground was a major influence)
Most current modern rock utilises too many effects to have been possible in the 60s, but I don't know about these, since none of them used many electronic effects or loops to my knowledge.
