GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Assignment About Glam Rock Music

Posted by: Niko Fran Apr 22 2009, 01:08 PM

Hi GMC, I'm writing a school assignment about Glam Rock at the moment, and I'm writing about the characteristics of the theory and the music. I do have some ideas of my own, but it would be really good if people could share some of their knowledge concerning this genre, as I dont know where to start I'm mostly looking for info about how the songs were build, and the scales they used. Thanks alot, I would really apreciate it if someone would help me out

Rule #1: Never enough hairspray!
Rule #2: Shiny, tight pants!
Rule #3: Loud, high voices (see rule #2)

All I know

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glam_rock might give you a good start. Though I'm sure you've already been to that link.

Canis, good advice, but I doubt that it will be that usefull in a exam Wikipedia was the first side I checked, but thanks anyway Help is still very apreciated, been working myself, but could really use some opinions on the characteristics of the music, not the visual look, hope someone can help!
