My Genre

I have decided to choose rock as my genre. This is because I enjoy rock music, and therefore will do better at producing a rock magazine. Some conventions of rock music are long guitar riffs and loud rhythmic drumming. Some existing artists in this genre are:

  • Fall Out Boy
  • Panic! at the Disco
  • Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance)
  • Paramore
  • Green Day
  • Bastille
  • Muse
  • All Time Low
  • You Me at Six
  • Imagine Dragons
  • The 1975

The history of rock and roll

Significant rock artist of the 1900's include Elvis Presley and The Beatles, who contributed to the genre, developing it into the rock we know today. Songs such as "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, experiment with the rock genre, creating separate rock branches such as "indie rock", "hardcore rock" and "pop rock", each with a slightly different viewpoint to the original genre. An example of an indie rock band is Bastille, still a rock band, but has a different sound to a band such as All Time Low (a pop rock band), or My Chemical Romance (a hard-core rock band).
