Because you have things like ‚American Idol‘ and you’ve got radio stations that play music made entirely by computers, it’s easy to forget there are bands with actual people playing actual instruments that rock.
Dave GrohlI don’t blame the average seventeen-year-old punk-rock kid for calling me a sellout. I understand that. And maybe when they grow up a little bit, they’ll realize there’s more things to life than living out your rock & roll identity so righteously.
Kurt CobainI discovered after going to music festivals that I am a rock fan. I love the guitars, the phrasing, and the abandon of rock fans.
Beyonce KnowlesThere’s always gonna be rock n‘ roll bands, there’s always gonna be kids that love rock n‘ roll records, and there will always be rock n‘ roll.
Dave GrohlGYBE are among my, erm, two favourite Montreal bands, Arcade Fire being the other.
David BowieI hate the rock music tradition. I can’t bear it!
Brian EnoActually, I hear a lot of rock music. My husband is a big rock fan.
Dolly PartonRock stars are good at making noise.
BonoRock music is niche.
BonoI never really felt like a rock singer or a rock star or whatever.
David BowieAs hard as it is, as ghetto as it is, hip-hop is pop music. It’s the sound of music getting out of the ghetto, while rock is looking for a ghetto.
BonoFrom the time that ‚Nevermind‘ came out in September of 1991 to the time that Nirvana was over, it was really just a few years, and a lot happened in those few years.
