Aor
AOR (Album-Oriented Rock) is a melodic rock genre that blends polished production, soaring vocals, and anthemic hooks with a radio-friendly sound. Emerging in the late 1970s and reaching peak popularity in the ‘80s, AOR emphasizes rich harmonies, emotive lyrics, and glossy synthesizers alongside guitar-driven energy. Rooted in classic rock but often infused with elements of hard rock, pop, and even jazz or funk, AOR balances commercial appeal with sophisticated musicianship. Bands and artists in this style craft powerful, cinematic songs that evoke both nostalgia and euphoria, making AOR a lasting favorite among rock and pop audiences alike.
