Rock music

Rock music is a genre defined by electric guitars, strong rhythms, and energetic performances. Emerging in the 1950s, it grew from rock and roll and evolved into various subgenres, including classic rock, punk, and alternative rock. Rock songs often focus on themes of rebellion, love, and personal freedom, with guitar solos and driving drum beats at their core. Subgenres like grunge and indie rock continue to push the genre in new directions, making rock music a staple in both mainstream and underground scenes for decades.
