Art rock is a subgenre of rock music that emphasizes artistic and conceptual elements over traditional rock conventions. It emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s and is characterized by a blend of rock, avant-garde, and classical music influences. Art rock musicians often employ complex structures, intricate melodies, and unconventional instrumentation in their compositions, and their lyrics may be introspective, poetic, or political in nature. Some notable examples of art rock bands include Pink Floyd, Genesis, King Crimson, Roxy Music, and Yes.
