generation will get their music and what they will
be allowed to listen to. As far back as the early
1900 s parents have been telling their children to
turn down that awful noise, and as each generation
turns to the next, the music always changes making
the parent and child lose touch on each others

plain appearance of a Black Label Society t-shirt

Rock And Roll Twentieth Century

Rock music has affected society in the twentieth
century in a large way. Rock music started in the
1950 s with various small bands such as Bill Haley
and Elvis Presley. These pioneers of modern music
drew a larger crowd at each show, and soon, rock
music would be in the ears of almost every
American. Rock and roll contributes many things
back to people when they listen to it. It gives
people things like a change to let out anger or
aggression. One thing that happened when people

to support that band. There are many, many
different types of music, and usually a certain

Dave Matthews Band Jerry Garcia

Who is the Dave Matthews Band? Five years ago that
question would have gotten nothing more than a
weird stare and a stupid look. But today you would
get everything but that. The Dave Matthews Band is
one of the most successful bands of the late 20 th
century. But many ask how a band so new has become
so successful in such a relatively short period of
time. Many come to wonder if it was their music,
their look, or possibly something else that has
made the Dave Matthews Band what they are today.

is tortured, a bitter realist, a man capable of

homefront, inside himself. On a warm and windy
late-spring day in the San Rafael, Calif. , its
easy to see which Eddie Vedder is shooting baskets

Jimi Hendrix Experience Heavy Metal

Heavy metal is one of the most misunderstood
genres of music in our day. Rather unfortunately,
this is often a result of brazen ignorance about
the subject, brought about by certain sectors of
the media, society, and listeners themselves.
Instead of blindly back lashing against those
responsible for the defamation of heavy metal, I
decided to write a history of the aforementioned
music, in hopes of providing yet another source of
information for those who wish to learn about its
development. In ...
