HARD ROCK ERA IN ROCK HISTORY

I have earlier spoken about the heavy meatal era in the history of rock.The heavy metal genre got unbound popuarity in the world.It ruled the rock world in the seventies and eigties.But after then it has give the stage away in the hands of some different kinds of rock bands.And this is the beginning of hard rock.Hard rock is different in that it lacked the rapid drum beatings.Also in hard rock the guitar effect becomes more intense and sharp.This rocl genre got maturity in the hands of two rock bands in the late eighties.They are Guns N Roses and Metallica.Guns n Roses gave some most influential rock albums like Appetite for Destruction and Use Your Illusion.The songs like November Rain and Sweet Child of Mine turned milstones in the rock world.Metallica gave numbers like One,Master Of Puppets,Turn The Page,The Unforgiven and many more.These were some smashing hits of the hard rock era.They continued their dominace over a whole decade.
