extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall
loudness. Heavy metal lyrics and performance styles are
often associated with loudness, aggression, and anger.

States around the end of 19th Century from spirituals,
work songs, field hollers, shouts and chants and rhymed
simple narrative ballads.

possesses other characteristics such as specific lyrics,
bass lines, and instruments

modern form in the 1950s, deriving from rock and

any style). As a genre, pop music is very eclectic, often
borrowing elements from other styles
including urban, dance, rock, Latin and country.
