Hard rock is a genre of rock music which is heard as loud and aggressive rock and not to be confused with heavy metal. Guitars are the most dominant instrument in this genre, often with the usage of distortion with big rhythms and usually accompanied a guitar solo.
In the mid 1960s, rock and roll evolved to the point where louder amps, heavy guitar riffs took over the scene. The 1970s era has developed hard rock into one of the most popular music, with bands such as Aerosmith, Van Halen, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, and AC/DC. The music reached its commercial break during the 1980s as Guns n’ roses, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi further increasing its success. Hard rock is usually known for its emphasise on masculinity, as men usually consumed the product in a way that looking at the audience you would usually see white, working class men.
