First let me talk you about Rock, a few years in the past, people thought that if you heard rock or metal (derivate genre) you were satanic or just a rare person, unfortunately, this is Colombia, so the religion will be always on a first place, but that is not our topic, and those statements have almost completely disappeared by today, so do not worry, The “rock n’ roll” or just “rock” is a fusion of other early 1900’s genres, such as jazz, blues and other American rhythms, it has evolved since 50’s and reached his highest popularity between the 70’s and 90’s. Now, in what refers to bands, I want to recommend you first AC/DC, they are from Australia, and the band was founded in 1973 by the Young brothers (Malcom and Angus), the band still exists, not with all the original members but they conserve that hard rock essence, their best songs are: “Thunderstruck”, “Highway To Hell” and “Back In Black”. Another popular band is Guns and Roses, their most famous members are Axl Rose, founder and leader voice of the band and Slash, iconic guitarist of the band, their most known songs are “November Rain”,”, “Sweet Child O’ Mine” and “Welcome to the Jungle”. Nirvana was another popular band threw the 90’s, their lyrics often talk about sex and drugs, but also about love and a huge critic to the system, their principal singer, kurt Cobain.
