Le rock est une musique ancienne et nouvelle en même temps. Dans ce qui suit, nous allons vous présenter quelques aspects de l’historie de ce genre musical.
Le rock est un genre de musique populaire qui a débuté dans les années 1960. Le genre prend ses racines dans le rock 'n' roll, le rhythm and blues, la country des années 1940 et 1950 ainsi que dans la folk music, le jazz et la musique classique.
Il est caractérisé par une mélodie vocale dominante, souvent accompagnée par une (ou plusieurs) guitare électrique, une guitare basse et une batterie, mais peut également être accompagné de synthétiseurs/piano, de cuivres ou d'autres instruments.
Pendant la fin des années 1960 et le début des années 1970s, le rock a développé plusieurs sous-genres. Il a été mélangé avec la musique folk, (ce qui donna le folk rock), avec du blues (blues rock) et avec du jazz (jazz-rock fusion). Dans les années 1970, le rock fut influencé par la soul, le funk, et la musique latine.
Egalement pendant les années 1970, le rock développa beaucoup de sous-genres comme le soft rock, glam rock, heavy metal, hard rock, progressive rock, et punk rock. Parmi les sous-genres du rock ayant émérgé pendant les années 1980 il y a la new wave, le hardcore punk et le rock alternatif. Pendant les années 1990, les nouveaux sous-genres du rock incluent le grunge, le Britpop, l'indie rock, et le nu metal.
Un groupe de musiciens spécialisés dans le rock est appelé un groupe de rock. La plupart des groupes de rock sont composés d'un guitariste éléctrique, d'un chanteur principal, d'un bassiste et d'un batteur, ce qui forme un quartet. Certains groupes omettent un ou plusieurs de ces rôles ou comprennent un chanteur jouant un instrument en même tant qu'il chante, formant ainsi un trio ou duo; d'autres comprennent des musiciens supplémentaires comme comme un ou deux guitariste rythmique, ou un clavieriste. Plus rarement, des groupes utilisent également des instruments à cordes comme des violons ou des violoncelles, des instruments à vent comme un saxophone, des cuivres ou des instruments tels que des trompettes ou des trombones.
Plus récemment, le terme rock a été utilisé comme un terme générique incluant des formes comme la pop music, la soul music, et parfois même le hip hop, avec qui il est souvent opposé.
Le rock est devenu une véritable "philosophie" avec sa dominance culturelle, du cinéma aux bandes dessinées en passant par la mode vestimentaire.
Le punk rock est un genre musical dérivé du rock, apparu au milieu des années 1970, associé au mouvement punk de cette même époque. Précédé par une variété de musique protopunk des années 1960 et du début des années 1970, le punk rock se développe surtout entre 1974 et 1976 aux États-Unis, au Royaume-Uni et en Australie. Des groupes comme les Ramones, les Sex Pistols, et The Clash sont reconnus comme les pionniers d'un nouveau mouvement musical.
Les groupes de punk rock, s'opposant à la lourdeur qu'ils jugent excessive et à l'institutionnalisation du rock populaire des années 1970, créent une musique rapide et rude, généralement servie par des chansons de courte durée, une instrumentation simplifiée et des paroles souvent chargées de messages politiques ou nihilistes. Le mouvement punk, associé au genre, exprime une rébellion jeune et est caractérisé par des styles vestimentaires distinctifs, une variété d'idéologies anti-autoritaires et une attitude do it yourself (« Faites-le vous-même »). Le punk rock est rapidement devenu un phénomène culturel majeur au Royaume-Uni. En majorité, les racines du punk se trouvent dans des scènes locales qui ont eu tendance à rejeter toute connexion avec les courants musicaux dominants. Pendant les années 1980, des styles encore plus rapides et agressifs, tels que le punk hardcore et la Oi!, ont évolué et sont devenus une composante importante du paysage punk. Des musiciens s'identifiant ou s'inspirant du punk rock lui ont permis de s'élargir et se diversifier. Ces pratiques ont notamment donné naissance au mouvement rock alternatif. À partir du milieu des années 1990, de nouveaux groupes de pop punk comme Green Day (dans le image) ou The Offspring offrent au genre une nouvelle popularité plusieurs décennies après son émergence, précédant une nouvelle vague dans les années 2000 avec l'ascension de groupes plus pop punk comme Sum 41 et Blink-182. Le rock alternatif est un genre de rock qui émergea de la scène underground des années 1980 et qui devint largement populaire dans les années 1990. Le terme « alternatif » a été utilisé dans les années 1980 pour décrire les groupes inspirés du punk rock signés à des labels indépendants et qui ne rentraient pas dans les genres du grand public de l'époque. En tant que genre musical, le rock alternatif inclut divers sous-genres qui émergèrent de la scène indépendante des années 1980, comme le grunge, la britpop, le rock gothique, et le rock indépendant. Ces genres ont tous subi l'influence éthique ou musicale du punk, fondatrice pour la musique alternative des années 1970.
Bien que le genre soit considéré comme un variante du rock, quelques uns de ses sous-genres sont influencés par la musique folklorique, le reggae, la musique électronique, et le jazz parmi d'autres genres. Par moments, le rock alternatif a été utilisé pour décrire l'ensemble des artistes underground des années 1980, toute la musique descendante du punk rock (dont le punk rock lui-même, la new wave, et le post-punk), et, paradoxalement, le rock en général pendant les années 1990 et les années 2000.
Bien que quelques artistes comme les Pixies, R.E.M. et The Cure aient connu un succès commercial et une reconnaissance du grand public, beaucoup d'artistes du rock alternatif des années 1980 étaient des groupes underground qui enregistraient leur musique sur des labels indépendants et qui se faisaient connaître grâce aux stations de radio d'universités et au bouche à oreille. Avec le succès de Nirvana et la popularité des mouvements grunge et britpop au début des années 1990, le rock alternatif connut un grand succès commercial et de nombreux groupes alternatifs connurent à leur tour un succès international et commercial.
Le rock indépendant, souvent abrégé en rock indé (indie rock ou indie en anglais), est une classification musicale apparue à la fin des années 1970 au Royaume-Uni comme résultat du bouleversement occasionné par l'émergence du mouvement punk. Le terme s'est rapidement diffusé dans le monde entier pour désigner le rock distribué indépendamment des majors du disque et qui reste opposé aux courants dominants du rock.
La classification n'est donc pas purement musicale mais désigne à l'origine des disques (et non des groupes) publiés par de « petits » labels. Nombre de groupes sont ainsi qualifiés (étymologiquement à tort) de « rock indé » alors qu'ils publient leurs albums chez des majors. Par extension cependant la catégorie « indé » est aujourd'hui davantage utilisée pour qualifier un courant relativement étendu, une esthétique de la musique rock, qu'en fonction du statut contractuel des groupes. Une constante des groupes de rock indé est leur allégeance envers les valeurs de l'underground, de la contre-culture et la recherche d'un rock authentique, éloigné des standards commerciaux.
Les expressions « rock indépendant » et « rock alternatif » ont été employées indifféremment jusqu'au début des années 1990, moment où le sens du deuxième s'est considérablement élargi pour finir par englober une part importante de la production musicale rock, le premier conservant son sens originel, plus restreint mais s'ouvrant peu à peu à des mouvances plus expérimentales et, de manière contradictoire, de moins en moins rock. Ainsi de nos jours, s'il est d'une part habituel de considérer le rock indépendant comme un sous-genre du rock alternatif, d'autre part, avec l'émergence de mouvements apparentés comme le post-rock par exemple, il est également de plus en plus fréquent de le représenter comme une mouvance dépassant la seule sphère musicale du rock pour tendre vers le hip hop, la musique électronique ou le hardcore par exemple ; on parlera ainsi de plus en plus de « musiques indépendantes ».

Chimney Rock

...Chimney Rock is a great depiction of the American landscape, without any indication of civilization or settlement. The embroidery on fabric was strikingly done as the observer can see the disparity through her stitch work. One can notice complex threading modifications that appear to be a complicated task. Chimney Rock creates three-dimensionality to the multihued landscape as the threading adds an assortment of color and shading elements; Chimney Rock contains different shades of earth tones. Carol Shinn’s embroidery utilizes the basic elements of style to portray the American frontier that truly encapsulates what are nation used to be. Overall, Carol Shinn accomplished a salient reproduction of a natural setting. When viewing Chimney Rock the first thing the viewer should notice is the rocky landscape. In the background the viewer can make out distant mountains and flat mesa tops surrounding a desolate valley of green and brown tones. The sky in the background is a bright blue with not a cloud in sight. Carol Shinn creates an interesting natural aspect to the sky by making it a lighter blue as it touches the tops of the mountains and mesas in the background. As the viewer’s eyes are pulled to the middle ground of the piece the orange and red hills break up the foreground and background. These hills have desert shrubs, so hints of greenery contrast the shifting orange hills below. To the right the orange, sand-like hills shift into a towering mesa that has a shadow cast upon...

The Ranch

...Roberto Muniz Professor Andrew Husband ENG 101.01 February 25, 2013 The Ranch It’s the end of the school year, and I know I have completed my part by passing all my classes. Now I’m sitting on the sofa watching television, but I can’t help but to feel anxious. I already know where I’m are going and who I will be going with, but I still need to hear the words conforming it. Fighting to stay awake I hear the door starting to open, excitement takes over me and I’m no longer sleepy or watching television. Then it happens, the words I have been waiting to hear all day coming rolling out of my father’s mouth: “we are going to the ranch.” Going to the ranch was and still is the most special place for me. After the trip announcement, it was packing time. The house was in complete joy, yet it was chaotic at the same time. I would run to my room as fast as I could and pull out my suitcase, but clothes were not on my mind. The ranch called for special items to be packed, like my slingshot, one of my prized possessions. It took me weeks to make it and find the right type of tree with the right tree branch. My uncle put it all together for me, he even added a leather hand grip. I couldn't play around with the slingshot in my neighborhood, so the ranch was perfect for target practice. Next was my pair of binoculars, they were perfect for the ride into the ranch, and once at the ranch those binoculars would always be around my neck. With all my special items packed, it was time to secure...

Gender Biased

...Beautiful Day There is this place just a few blocks away from my house where I like to go to get away. It’s called The Rock in Pawnee Rock. Early in the morning it can be so peaceful and quiet with beautiful wet dew still on the grass. As the sun comes up you see the colors surrounding the bright sky. Nothing more radiant as the sun on a bright morning. As I look around I can see every house in this small town, plus the long stretch of highway from great bend to larned. You see cars buzzing by on the highway and hear the hum of a nearby lawn being mowed with the smell of fresh cut grass in the air. The tall stone pillars remind me of the brave Indians that lost their lives in battle on these grounds. The jagged rocks around make me think of when I was a child and loved to climb onto the tallest rocks I could find, as I would stand at the top of the hill and felt like king of the world. Too Busy To Stand Still At the rock early in the morning the world seems so eerie and dark. The sun still shining but the lives of Indians passed still feel as if they are lingering in this hollow place. As I stand at the top of the hill you see the once lovely plaques dedicated to the Indians that lost their lives on these grounds, which is now riddled full of bullet holes. The walls and the tall pillars now covered in obscene spray paint, surely contaminated by the younger generation with nothing better to do. As you hear the loud cars busily driving by, you wonder if anyone ever...

The Unforgettable Experience of My Life

...and ban the elders used to cry at. Of course being a child of no experience made me curious and persistent to do things as the grown-ups did. Never did I thought of dangers posed in every action and move I take. One day, I woke up to my usual Saturday morning and had the breakfast my mom prepared. She asked me to follow her to her workplace, a primary school which I agreed. There, my mom let me play with the staff’s children so we wouldn’t disturb them at work. But my mom reminded not to go too near the fish pond in the science garden. Lately, some reports were made that student got stung by bees near the fish pond. The beehives was believed to be at the rock pile of bricks. It was normal for my fellow friends and I to play near the fish pond. That place was shady and cool. We played hide-and-seek game. I hid behind the rock pile of bricks and accidentally toppled the unstable structure. The beehives was destroyed at once and the bees were furious. They swarmed over me and stung me. I was lucky as I wore long-sleeved shirt but my bare foot became the target. My friends and I run to safety, but the stings was so much that I cried in pain. A staff helped to send me for medical treatment in the town. I expected my mom to scold me for being ignorant but she soothed me to stop crying and eased my pain. After medical treatment, we thanked that kind staff for her generousity. I will not forget this accident and be careful whenever I go as the saying goes once bitten twice shy. It...

Rocks and Minerals - a Reflection Essay

...“REFLECTION ESSAY” There are lots of things that we ourselves do not know if these are somewhat essential and can be used in our daily activities. For instance, most of us, students, who go to a spectacular university for four to six times a week to hit the books, pin our ears back to the professors, and internalize what they’re teaching, in fact don’t have the idea about the learnings we’re acquiring are can be applied in our real life situations. But it’s not what we think, that even the smallest thing we learn might be as important and significant as the big ones. In these five different chapters that we’ve tackled and talked over throughout the prelim period, I’ve learned certain things which to somewhat extent can be used and applied in real life situations. For example, minerals. Did we know that we use minerals in our everyday activities? Without them, there would be no cars, trains or planes. I wouldn’t be able to clean my teeth or wash my clothes. Clocks, watches and jewelry, tin cans and aluminum foil - all minerals! And of course, I wouldn't be sitting down, looking at a computer, and making and reading this now if it weren't for minerals. Where would I be without light bulbs? If tungsten in light bulbs are omitted? How can I write without a paper which is made up of minerals? How can I put pen to paper without minerals? How can a house or school be beautified without minerals that are used in making ceramic flower pots? How I can draw the things I view on a microscope...

A Stellar Award for the Church

Was the award a special plaque or a trophy? Perhaps it was a certificate or some other token of recognition. The purpose of an award is to recognize and to praise persons or groups that have made noteworthy accomplishments and contributions. They generally contain the name of the honoree, a description of the deed accomplished, a date, and the name of the presenters. Recognition of some accomplishments may get bigger than a mere plaque or certificate. Statues, busts and memorials are erected around the world to note the lifetime contributions of those who distinguished themselves in the course of time or to note the site of an historic event. Whether a small certificate or a towering obelisk, awards have a way of recognizing and marking important moments in time. Tributes usually follow a significant accomplishment. Often those receiving the tribute feel undeserving and are puzzled at the praise they receive from others. We know how to recognize people for their accomplishments, but how do we recognize God when he has helped us? That was the question that puzzled David in Psalm 116:12 when he asked "What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?" David concluded that...

...National Treasure The action film National Treasure starring Nicholas Cage is known as a “drama filled action movie” (New York Times), but what most people don’t know is that it was also known for its historical and inspirational side. This movie is a triple threat with action, inspiration and history all combined into a fantastic hour and a half film. In an action movie there must be a chase of some kind and/or a hero and a villain. In National Treasure, it has Nicholas Cage as the hero and Sean Bean as the villain. These two character have a common goal of finding the next clue that leads to the treasure. There are multiple times that the hero gets beaten down, but the villain in the end always seems to never get the upper hand. As the movie went on, there were also times when the hero had to blur the lines in between good and evil for the greater good. For instance, when Ben Gates (Nicholas Cage) was in the planning process of stealing the Declaration of Independence, he had to face the risk of being caught. During the movie, the audience feels a sense of inspiration to start their own adventure. The world of unknown is evident in this film during the search for the next astonishing clue. With every step the hero has to follow the clues, but also watch his/her back for the villain trying to steal what is not rightfully his/hers. For example, as Ben Gates (Nicholas Cage) was entering the tomb underneath Wall St. he was being followed by Ian Howe (Sean Bean). Ian left Ben...
