Avant-rock

Avant-rock is a genre characterized by its experimental and avant-garde approach to rock music, often incorporating elements of free improvisation, noise, and dissonance. Emerging in the 1960s and 1970s, avant-rock drew from the musical chaos of the Velvet Underground and the avant-garde spirit of John Cage. The genre gained momentum in the 1990s and 2000s, with a focus on sonic deconstruction and reassembly. Avant-rock often features unconventional instrumentation, rhythms, and vocal styles, blurring the lines between rock, noise, and classical music. Notable for its emphasis on texture and atmosphere over traditional notions of melody and harmony, avant-rock challenges listeners and pushes the boundaries of rock music. With its roots in underground and DIY scenes, avant-rock has influenced a range of genres, from post-rock to metal, and continues to thrive as a hub for musical innovation and experimentation.
