     Spawn Styles
Thanks to the creation of the rock genre, many styles have originated from this. The most known being heavy metal, which is also one of the biggest genres going at the moment. Not only heavy metal, but also glam rock.

      Clothing and hair
When it comes to the style of rock bands, it really does vary in many different ways. Some chose to wear very tight material pants which usually came along with flamboyant and very bold colours, with long baggy cardigan styled tops. This meant showing off most of their upper torso. A few examples of members/singers of bands who followed this style are; Axl Rose (Guns N' Roses), and also Steven Tyler (Aerosmith).
Another style of outfits would be simple, but also the same as those who were classed as being in the glam rock section. Besides from flamboyant colours, it would be a mass of makeup, huge/long hair, and also the famous leather jackets.
The audience would either also follow this style of clothing, or re-create their own. Some also wearing 'casual' clothing, which would be the classic blue jeans, boots, and also the band shirts. Most band shirts from this era only featuring the band's actual logo, no other images.
