Glam rock is a subgenre of rock music that emerged in the UK during the early 1970s. It is characterized by its theatrical, flamboyant style and the use of makeup, glitter, and outrageous costumes. The music is also known for its anthemic, catchy hooks and sing-along choruses.
David Bowie is considered one of the pioneers of glam rock, with his androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust becoming a cultural icon. Other popular glam rock acts include Queen, T. Rex, Gary Glitter, and Sweet. Many of these artists had a huge impact on the rock and pop music of the 70s and 80s.
Glam rock had a significant influence on fashion and style, with its bold and extravagant aesthetic influencing everything from clothing to makeup. It was also a precursor to punk rock, with many punk bands citing glam as an inspiration.
Today, there are still radio stations that cater to fans of glam rock. Some of the most popular include Glam FM and The Hairball John Radio Show. These stations play a mix of classic glam rock hits as well as newer music that has been influenced by the genre. The music continues to inspire new generations of artists, keeping the spirit of glam rock alive.
