The Rods are an American heavy metal band formed in 1980 by David Rock Feinstein (guitar, vocals), Steven Starmer (bass, vocals), and Carl Canedy (drums, vocals). After the release of their first album, Starmer was replaced by Garry Bordonaro. Feinstein had previously gained attention as a member of Elf alongside his cousin Ronnie James Dio, though The Rods adopted a more traditional heavy metal style compared with Elf’s boogie-rock approach. Their debut album was first released independently as "Rock Hard" in 1980.
