The 1960s saw the birth of many new genres of popular music. One of the most notable was psychedelic rock. It’s a genre of rock music that is characterized by the use of electronic effects, distorted guitars, and mind-altering lyrics. Another genre to emerge was folk rock, which was more acoustic and blended elements of traditional folk music with rock. These styles of music were not always well-received. Many people found the new styles to be too experimental and jarring, and they resisted the change in popular music. But psychedelic and folk rock have since been recognized as two of the most influential genres of rock music in the 1960s. They both have continued to influence a wide range of musical artists, from indie rockers to pop stars.
