Welcome to #Rocktober on MTV Rocks!

Throughout October on MTV Rocks we're celebrating the most rocking month of the year - it's time for #Rocktober, where we play nothing but supersize axe wielding anthems and roaring riffs so turn up the volume to Rock!

Expect live performances from You Me At Six, Linkin Park and Green Day, hosted countdowns from bands including Bring Me The Horizon, Lower Than Atlantis and classic World Stages from the likes of Paramore and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

This Friday you can also watch the premiere of Iron Maiden's World Stage filmed at this year's Rock Am Ring festival, Sunday at 11pm on MTV Rocks.

Coincidentally October's MTV PUSH act is the insanely talented British rock duo Royal Blood. We've launched our month of exclusive content with a performance of Ten Tonne Skeleton and we'll have plenty more where that came from over the next four weeks so keep checking push.mtv.tv for more Royal Blood exclusives!

In the meantime check out this playlist full of riotous rock legends...
