I'm a big fan of rock music. I like that it draws on other genres of music like blues and folk but still remains it's own true thing.
Cool, I like some forms of rock, but not the crazy metal stuff, not sure if that is considered rock though.
Heavy metal has roots in blues rock and psychedelic rock, but it has it's own developed sound with high distortion and just overall loudness. So it is considered rock, but a different type.
Interesting, so what kind of rock do you like?
I'm usually a bigger fan of rock music that focuses on electric guitar with bass and drums and a singer. My favorite rock band is probably Three Days Grace.
