Yes, punk could be considered a rude, blasé, simplistic and impudent music, yet it was not easily accepted by the dominant social and musical scene.
And so, glam metal arose.With the emergence of a new wave, hard rock and heavy metal were influenced by a whole, very different musical world: the music of punk. Many musicians in this genres took inspiration from rock and its diversity. Yet, even before that happened, hard rock had begun to merge with metal.Country and Western soon merged with traditional folk music, and with the creation of roots rock, the same happened with it. If you listen carefully to the records of metal, you will hear a lot of bluesy chords, but with a harder rhythm, making this trend unique.Metal music took off in the 80s, and in no time it became a vast world that would swallow all styles of music, as far as rock was concerned. Great care was taken to find talented artists who would meet all the criteria, creating a style that was truly its own. For some, there was, naturally, a darker side to all of this: the 1977 punk movement represented a backlash against those musical trends, and the resulting music was simultaneously typical and influenced by its context, making it equally exciting and peculiar.Some were even more rebellious than punk, and that is where one of the most popular forms of music would be born: hair metal.Hard rock and heavy metal would grow into a mighty union, uniting a huge, ever-changing cultural, musical and political world. The rise of disco and punk music – as well as the new wave music that started to explode – breathed new life into rock, and pop music at the same time. The golden years of the 70s were painted in bold colors, regardless of the social and political turmoil that characterized the decade.
