The New Genres of 80′s Songs
November 24th, 2009 by admin
Most 80’s songs were considered as breakthroughs in the music industry. Not only did the artists create new genres, but they also used new equipment such as synthesizers to create new sounds. Some of the new genres that were created during this time include metal (largely popularized by Metallica and Megadeth), alternative (focusing on the awesome music created by the guitar), and hip-hop (which started in the 70’s, but entered mainstream during this decade). These 80′s songs are still popular to this day, with more and more bands using the bands and artists that started these as inspiration for their work.
