Rock Musik - Song - Musikkünstler
history
The whole thing had its beginning in the U.S., where the popular music of the whites (Hill Billy) and that of blacks (Blues) coexisted. As
first Rock 'n' roll song Bill Haley's Rock around the clock is from the year 1954, however, was the first rock song Duane Eddy Peter Gunn, 1958 (1).
Rock around the clock and many other rock 'n' roll songs of the 1950s developed as a "white" Copy of the Afro-American rhythm & blues. The
rock music, but as one from the late 50's new and "independent, from rock 'n' Roll distinctive form of music" has the essential
distinctive feature that the eighth dot "in the rock and roll, however, in rock music be played with Latin American uniformity "(2).
known representative of the 1950s was Elvis Presley, who probably started the beginning of a music whose target group is youth was, and this primary,
off from the "adult world" to define and to manifest itself to the awakening sexuality and rebellion thoughts.
The rock and roll was changed
style in the 1960s in the West of England. Two of the most important precursor of rock of this period are The Rolling Stones and The Beatles
. This is also seen to have the first genre-splitting, which later characterized the rock scene
should be: on the one hand, the Beatles were with their beat music, "brave" guys that have occurred in suits and tie rather melodic ,
tended harmony influenced songs, and on the other hand, the Stones, wild rockers who attracted attention by drug excesses and rather harsh sound. In the tradition of the Beatles
then those bands are also seen, the later more in the category Pop classified, and in the tradition of the Stones those
the rougher gait developed the Hard Rock, Punk and Heavy Metal.
The magazine Rolling Stone called the track (I can not get no) Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones as the true birth of rock. Socially
was rock music at that time more than controversial. The appearance of the protagonists with long hair and obscene, loud music was
as scandalous. Representatives of the establishment tried to push the scene in a satanic corner. But it is precisely this refusal was probably
much help to give the rock scene to the status of the rebellious and revolutionaries, they maintain, until the 1970s and should his
was high point in the peace movement against the Vietnam War. Rock music and hippie scene here are strongly connected. A good illustration of the
prevailing conditions found in the musical Hair, which is about the resistance of young Americans against the war in the context of the hippie scene.
BusParallel hippie peace-oriented to the hippies was a scene more violent rocker. became known here is mainly the environment of the
Hells Angels, a violent searching, originally American motorcycle gang, which soon found numerous offshoots and the international image of the Rock
lasting harm.
The number of successful rock musicians exploded in late 1960s almost. This inevitably led to an increasing fragmentation of
scene in more and more confusing becoming sub-genres, a development that led to that soon every band with a slightly different sound
immediately a peculiar genre has claimed, reinforced by the music industry, which by marketing needs it and has had interest.
The two main directions of the 1970s on the one hand are a more artistic approach in the genres of art-rock, glam rock, progressive rock
manifests from the scene and the adult pop. Important representatives were Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Elton John, Genesis and Roxy Music. On the other
Page still existed rebellious scene that was also partly as a backlash to the derided as too peaceful hippies. These include
the entire punk movement, the metal scene and the Hard Rock. These directions managed to continue to provoke and scandalize while
the above styles have made the leap into the company's ability. Important examples are the Sex Pistols, Black Sabbath, AC / DC or the Ramones
. Of course there were many performers between these two extremes, other important names are the Status Quo, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, The Clash
or Velvet Underground.
was interesting at that time also, as the rock, other Music flows incorporated in and transformed. Music genres such as jazz, reggae or soul
changed visibly under the influence of the music industry. A good example is Michael Jackson, who went down with its roots in the Black Music
a very successful relationship with the Rock. Moreover, the progressive digitalization of music production is observed. For
one that was because of bands like Pink Floyd, who laid in their quest for perfection the bar to perfectly produced record ever higher, but also to
avant-garde such as Can and especially power plant, the other side by the urge to experiment a complete genre of Rock helped to his feet:
of electronic music.
made in the 1980s so-called pop metal bands of big talk, like Bon Jovi, Guns' n Roses, Def Leppard and Ratt. These bands were recorded in those years
great success. Of all the bands of that time could only get their fan base and Bon Jovi are also still very
successful, they have largely thanks to their constant music in the late '80s, however, developed from the metal to stadium rock back
.
The difference between pop and rock was subsequently then accelerated in the 1980s, very much, especially through the independent scene who saw himself in the
tradition of punk and stand out from the great mainstream of the music industry tried. Here created a diverse and large scene with
many sub-genres which later in the course of the 1990s in Alternative passed. Also, the metal experienced a heyday of groups like Iron Maiden, Motorhead or Metallica
. And here is the principle of the vast fragmentation. At the interface between rock and pop were
many bands that should be influential for this decade: for example, U2, REM and The Cure.
witnessed the scene in the early 1990s, then an unexpected boost from the success of the U.S. grunge band Nirvana, after the experiment and
digitizing the 1980s the rock back to the classic guitar-bass-drums-3-chord combination " reduced and the whole alternative scene of the 1990s
lasting impact. They appeared to bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and the Smashing Pumpkins.
The fusing and experimenting then entered again until the end of the decade to the fore through interpreters, the items from the celebrating at this time
successes adapted electronic music such as Radiohead, Blur, or Nine Inch Nails.
The new millennium was then characterized by a pervasive wave of retro. Bands like The Strokes, The White Stripes or Franz Ferdinand attacked
back to the 60s, the typical elements and transported them back in the charts, The Hives stand on the shoulders old punk greats, The Mars Volta
make the first band for thirty years back successfully Progressive Rock and the Bright Eyes sound a lot like some of the young Bob Dylan
. A stylistic turning point, the "next big thing", can at the moment so anything coming.
