garage rock

Raw, distorted guitar riffs and energetic drumming define garage rock, a lo-fi genre that emerged from suburban American garages in the 1960s. Characterized by simple three-chord progressions, fuzzy amplification, and rebellious attitude, it influenced punk rock while maintaining an deliberately amateurish, unpolished sound that emphasized passion over technical proficiency.
