Rock Music |
||||
| Rock & Roll is often used as a generic term,
but its sound is rarely predictable. From the outset, when the early rockers merged
country and blues, rock has been defined by its energy, rebellion and catchy hooks, but as
the genre aged, it began to shed those very characteristics, placing equal emphasis on
craftmanship and pushing the boundaries of the music. As a result, everything from Chuck
Berry's pounding, three-chord rockers and the sweet harmonies of the Beatles to the
soulful pleas of Otis Redding and the jarring, atonal white noise of Sonic Youth has been
categorized as "rock." That's accurate -- rock & roll had a specific sound
and image for only a handful of years. For most of its life, rock has been fragmented,
spinning off new styles and variations every few years, from Brill Building Pop and heavy
metal to dance-pop and grunge. And that's only natural for a genre that began its life as a fusion of styles.Main Types of ROCK:
