Pop rock 

(also typeset as pop/rock[3]) is rock music with a greater emphasis on professional

songwriting and recording craft, and less emphasis on attitude.[4][1] Originating in the late 1950s
as an alternative to normal rock and roll, early pop rock was influenced by the beat,
arrangements, and original style of rock and roll (and sometimes doo-wop).[1] It may be viewed
as a distinct genre field rather than music that overlaps with pop and rock.[3] The detractors of
pop rock often deride it as a slick, commercial product, less authentic than rock music.[5]
Electronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments, digital instruments,
or circuitry-based music technology in its creation. It includes both music made using electronic
and electromechanical means (electroacoustic music). Pure electronic instruments depended
entirely on circuitry-based sound generation, for instance using devices such as an electronic
oscillator, theremin, or synthesizer. Electromechanical instruments can have mechanical parts
such as strings, hammers, and electric elements including magnetic pickups, power
amplifiers and loudspeakers. Such electromechanical devices include
the telharmonium, Hammond organ, electric piano and the electric guitar. [1][2]
The first electronic musical devices were developed at the end of the 19th century. 
Eurythmics were a British pop duo consisting of members Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart.
Stewart and Lennox were both previously in The Tourists, a band which broke up in 1980;
Eurythmics were formed later that year in Wagga Wagga, Australia.[2] The duo released their
first studio album, In the Garden, in 1981 to little success, but went on to achieve global success
when their second album Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This), was released in 1983. The title
track became a worldwide hit which topped the charts in various countries including the US.
Radiohead
Radiohead could have carried on making albums like The Bends and OK Computer and become
the biggest British band of all time in the late 1990s. However, they challenged themselves to
change their sound, and with Kid A they showed the benefits of never standing still as an artist.
They're a great band who refuse to settle, but still manage to create weird and wonderful music.
They're beyond doubt one of the very, very best British rock bands of all time.
Muse are an English rock band from Teignmouth, Devon, formed in 1994. The band consists
of Matt Bellamy (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards), Chris Wolstenholme (bass guitar, backing
vocals), and Dominic Howard (drums).
Muse released their debut album, Showbiz, in 1999, showcasing Bellamy's falsetto and a
melancholic alternative rock style. Their second album, Origin of Symmetry (2001), incorporated
wider instrumentation and romantic classical influences, featured their acclaimed cover of
"Feeling Good", and earned them a reputation for energetic live performances.

 Absolution (2003) saw further classical influence, with strings on tracks such as "Butterflies
and Hurricanes", and was the first of six consecutive UK number-one albums.
The Smiths
They might have inspired more terrible student bands than any other artist, but the Smiths remain
one of the greatest bands Britain has ever produced. Morrissey’s unmistakable vocals and the
chime of Johnny Marr’s beautiful guitar playing made them one of the most distinctive bands of
the 1980s, and a hit with indie fans ever since. It’s almost scary to think that Marr formed the
Smiths, released four incredible studio albums and quit the band all by the time he was 24: a
staggering achievement at such an early age.
