Best Drummer Ever

Elvis is rock personified. Just because you hear "rock" and think "hard rock" don't make it so.

Rock:
Hardrock

So then, Hard Rock is an extra solid form of Elvis?

 

[Tsuyu]

It was created when Elvis first say a Playboy magazine. A big bang kinda deal.

Also, to prove that Elvis is rock:

So when people say ''Have you been living under a rock?'', then, uhm...

 

[Arseface]

Not actually a bass guitar. Just a bass guitar sample on a keyboard.

*trollface*

That's why I already elaborated what I meant. No need to beat a dead horse when I already buried it and bought a new one.

Ide class elvis as inventing it, he set out the main foundations for the genre. Without him there wouldn't have been them, therefore no rock.

Semantics. When I hear "invent", I assume the person was the one to pioneer that genre, make songs in that particular genre. Elvis heavily influenced the creation of rock through whatever changes he did to music, but his own songs can't be classified as rock. That's what I meant.

Metal <3 80's metal <3

Except a few classics, the 80's was overrated for music.

90's
60's
70's
50's
Early 2000's

They're all very close together in awesomeness.

What 80's did great was pop in my opinion (synthpop ftw). As for metal/rock... (alt. rock, hard rock), 90's was better, I agree.
But of course, there're pearls in every decade.

You have the Big Four from the 80's, but most other bands I like actually got started earlier. Like The New Wave of British Heavy Metal during the mid-late '70s; lots of awesome bands formed back then.

Iron maidens albums that they released in the 80's were amazing (number of the beast, Iron maiden), so were motley crues (too fast for love, shout at the devil, girls girls girls). I prefer most 80's metal to modern metal, but i have to agree 90's had some amazing music aswell.

For instance Iron maiden formed in 75? (i believe)

The 80s killed music for me. Unless we're talking modern jazz, then there's some good stuff.

 

[Tsuyu]

Oh, Arse. You and your jazz.

The 80's, man. The 80's... My only regret is being born '89. But hey, it is still the in 80's!

 

[Necromancer]

I feel like the late '60s and the '70s was the best time for music. I sometimes wish I got to grow up during those years.

Wish I was born in around 86.. So I could go be a teen during the late 90's and early 2000's.. Pop-punk ftw.

 

[Quistrix]

I wish I was born in the 17th century. Badass lute music is where it's at, my friends.

Blasphemy, the 80s was the pinnacle of good music.

If by "good music" you mean "not good music", then yeah I totally agree.

You bet your Australian arse I meant good music. Aside from some unfortunate horrors that spawned in the decade, there was plenty of brilliance to be had in the 80s with the surge of new genres/sub-genres. A necessary refreshment from the tired music before it... well.. much love for the 40s-50s (love that swing).

I just can't think of a song I really like that was written in the 80s.
