For already more than sixty years classic rock music and its various derivatives determine the development of mass culture around the world. This is not just an awesome musical direction, this is a cult, a means of communication, a mirror of society. Its ideology is focused on rebellion and protest, denial and revision of the moral and material values of the world. Nowadays, teenagers, as well as mature men and women wait for the best new rock music hits and visit concerts all over the world. Everyone also has the possibility to buy or download compositions of their favorite artists. However, it is necessary to use only reliable sources, such as online-store flacit.com. Here you can find songs in MP3 format as well as in lossless FLAC ones. Significant role in this culture is played by festivals and gatherings. One of the most famous of them is Woodstock Music and Art Festival. Some of the newest festivals are Download Festival, Terrastock, Y Not Festival. Sometimes fans also buy tickets to touring fests.

It is not so simple to determine the existence of temporal boundaries of this direction. It is believed that modern rock music MP3s came from the traditional African-American blues. And this is probably true. Equally important role in the formation of top rock music was played by folk. This has led to the emergence of many national schools within the genre.

In the history of this style one can clearly trace two stages of its development:

  1. Rock and roll (1954-1962).
  2. Rock itself (from 1962 to present).

Period of rock'n'roll

Many experts keep arguing about the first composition written in this style, whether it was played by one of famous rock music groups or by almost forgotten artists. And there is no consensus on this point. However, the following good rock music artists had the greatest influence on formation of the genre:

  • Bill Haley;
  • Fats Domino;
  • Bo Diddley;
  • Chuck Berry;
  • Little Richard.

It is worth mentioning that one of the most popular rock music hits was Bill Haley's Rock Around The Clock, which is now available for purchase at our site in FLAC format. It was covered by numerous performers, whose compositions you can also buy at our site.

The majority of great rock music bands of that time came from America and Britain. Yet, we all know that the crown of the king of rock 'n' roll belongs to a performer Elvis Presley, who became a legend during his lifetime and still remains a leader of rock music download (of course, in its rock’n’roll variation). You can purchase or download his songs using flacit.com. Our online-store is focused on lossless quality of sound. Therefore, you can always find here songs in FLAC or MP3 format.

British artist Cliff Richard and The Shadows, whose albums are still actively purchased, had equally strong influence on the development of rock. Since then, the leadership in this genre is constantly challenged by representatives of America and the United Kingdom.

Rock period

Over time, rock 'n' roll began to fade and the beginning of the 1960s was marked by the appearance of the best rock music groups that have had the greatest impact not only on the musical direction, but also on the development of a kind of subculture as a whole. These were The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.

The Beatles at first looked like nice boys. Their compositions were full of romanticism. Many still consider and the main slogan of the group, a phrase from and the name of one of top rock music songs of the time –  All You Need Is Love John Lennon. And virtually all of the hippie movement passed under that slogan.

Unlike the Beatles, Rolling Stones proved to be more aggressive, which absolutely contrasts with well-established customs and traditions. Young rebels behaved very provocatively on stage. Their lyrics and music still remains clearly rebellious and provocative.

In 70s and 80s rock music artists developed the style of metal. It all started with Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, AC / DC, Aerosmith, Scorpions and many others. Today, metal has many areas that it is simply impossible to count them. Some combinations of genres are really unusual, for example, some artists even release western rock music albums.
