Fox Reviews Rock

It Moves With The Times

It is fairly rare I would say for Rock as a genre to stay stagnant for too long. Different ideas, instruments, techniques all move with the times. That constantly evolving not only keeps it relevant but it also keeps things tied to the past. Metal wouldn’t have happened without folk.

Different Genres Capture A Time Period

Rock as a whole remains timeless by creating mini genres within itself that are timeboxed. Think Punk in the 70s or Grunge in the 80s. These new mini genres give rock new life and keep it relevant.

Good Music Lasts

Quite simply rock is a diverse genre that has AMAZING songs. The older bands and songs are still talked about well after they have stopped playing shows. I’d be amazed if there was anyone alive over the age of 20 who didn’t know about say Led Zeppelin, The Beatles etc.

Larger Than Life Characters

Being a genre that attracts life’s more interesting characters, it gives rock that staying ability. People like David Bowie or Freddie Mercury give rock that classic feel. Classics never go out of fashion and more importantly find themselves as key people in pop culture!
