What Are Some Good Folk Influenced Modern Bands?


I’ve been looking around for a while, but it’s hard to figure out exactly what genre I should be looking for, and even harder to figure out specific bands. I’m trying to find something modern sounding with a good steady beat, acoustic guitar mixed with some electric or steel guitar, drums, maybe even electronic samples thrown in there too, banjos, etc. Like hard rock with traditional and modern instruments.
It seems that it would fall under ‘folk’ music, but all I get out of looking for modern folk music is stuff like Mumford & Sons (too girly/indie for my tastes), Dropkick Murphys (amazing band, I really like their music, but not the kind I’m looking for), and modern bands that just play traditional folk. It seems to be an extremely narrow niche of music, but I’ve managed to stumble onto songs by a few bands that have the sound I’m looking for.
To post a few examples of what I mean, since it’s difficult to describe:
This is the CLOSEST thing to what I’m looking for, exactly what I want- Bastion OST, Spike In a Rail: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQWAcgefsQQ
A couple other great songs that are pretty close to it- Cage the Elephant, Ain’t No Rest For the Wicked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKtsdZs9LJo&ob=av3e
Seven Mary Three, Cumbersome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjNn4bbbgSw&ob=av2e
Things I’m not looking for: Country (definitely my least favorite music, and I live in Arkansas so I’ve heard enough of it for sure), plain old traditional Celtic/folk, Southern rock (not the same genre)
I know I’m being really complicated about it, and sorry if I haven’t left much to go off of, but I’ve been looking and looking for whatever type of music it is and cannot figure a specific name for it anywhere. I’ve been told all kinds of different things, but none of it has led me to anything I was looking for. Hopefully I’m not being too vague.
