movement of censorship swept through as a result of parents fearing Rock ‘n’ Roll’s challenge to traditional values and abstinence. The campaign was successful in making artists and producers of Rock ‘n’ Roll more reserved in the music they made. In doing so, they failed to damage the industry as a whole. The toned down nature of songs and performers encouraged Rock ‘n’ Roll’s acceptance to a broader audience. In the development of Rock ‘n’ Roll, groups began to organize and fight to censor…

Twenty One Pilots’ album Blurryface captures the emotions and feelings almost everyone experiences, but is too afraid to express. With its multi-genre track list, Blurryface could not be identified as one genre due to the complexity of the melodies, off putting beat changes, and depressing lyrics. The album should have failed in the beast that is mainstream music. However, bandmates Tyler Joseph and Joshua Dun of Twenty One Pilots managed to take their polarizing sound and turn it into a…

My love for music was always around since I was little. I always wanted to play the drums. When I got to high school, I was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to keep up with the drum line as a freshman. The complex rhythms were a bit overwhelming as a fourteen-year-old. That all changed with the helping hands of Ryan Haack. He showed me that while it was important to get better as a drummer, having fun and making memories was the most important thing to take away from high school. Ryan Haack…

Who remembers George Jones and Merle Haggard? George and Merle had their own style of music. They sang the traditional kind of music, but you don’t hear it that much these days. Country music today is going towards the pop genre and it’s not like it was in the 1970’s or even 1980’s. There’s one certain guy who has his own twists to music, his own style of the traditional era and has kept it around for as long as most people can remember. Most people call him “King George”, but he’s really much…

characters from a Mötley Crüe or Iron Maiden music video. I was drawn to the tattoos of this one 40-something woman with dyed red hair. Her arms were covered in signatures, tiny black snakes slithering across her wrists and elbows. Names of various rock stars and movie actors: Alice Cooper, Christopher Lee, Tim Burton, C.C. DeVille, Johnny Depp, John Carpenter. She had made her skin her own permanent autograph book for her idols. She had driven in from New Jersey this morning on a mission to…

Justin, if you try to pay me for this, I'll kick your ass, lol. Consider this another huge thank you for allowing me to continue to work with your band. Love you boys! Xo From the short amount of time I've worked with the amazing guys from Synergy of the Fallen, I've quickly learned so much. Justin, the guitarist and vocalist, is one of the best friends I've ever had the pleasure of having in my life. Jason, the bassist…

was seen as an alternative to rock music and is characterized by the dancing rhythm and use of electronic instruments to create a somewhat repetitive sound. The name came from the European “discotheque”, a word known and used in the 1960s in Europe where clubs were devoted to dancing. In order to enter discotheques in the United States it was common for you to have to meet the dress code (no holes in shirt or pants, which was commonly worn by people who listened to rock music) usually including…

Modern music now has been changed a lot since prehistoric or ancient times. From research it seems like with prehistoric music the music that we see and listen to today would not be the same. A lot of people still like old time music because of there background and the way it fits in with there life but then again a lot of people have really started fitting in with the modern music we all know of in todays world. The way music has changed since prehistoric music was that in ancient times the way…
