Garage rock is a raw form of rock and roll that was first popular in the United States and Canada from about 1963 to 1967. During the 1960s, it was not recognized as a separate music genre and had no specific name. In the early 1970s, some rock critics retroactively labelled it as punk rock. However, the music style was later referred to as garage rock or '60s Punk to avoid confusion with the music of late-1970s punk rock bands such as the Sex Pistols and The Clash.

History

The style had been evolving from regional scenes as far back as 1958. "Dirty Robber" by The Wailers, and "Rumble" by Link Wray are mainstream examples of the genre in its formative stages. Another early practioner was the Rumblers, from Downey, California, with their classic 1962 surfish rocker, "I Dont Need You No More." This 45 was released on a national label (Dot Records).

In 1963 garage bands crept into the national charts, and include: The Kingsmen (Portland), Paul Revere and the Raiders (Boise/Portland), The Trashmen (Minneapolis) and The Rivieras (South Bend, Indiana). In this early period, there was a cross-pollination between garage rock and frat rock. Frat rock (another heavy influence and precursor to punk rock) was also a loosely defined genre of rock and roll which featured raw, energetic, usually party-themed anthems. It is sometimes viewed as merely a sub-genre of garage rock. The Kingsmen were a rock band from Portland, Oregon who rose suddenly to fame with their recording of Richard Berrys Louie, Louie. ... Paul Revere & the Raiders is an American rock band that saw enormous mainstream success in the 1960s, best-known for hits like Indian Reservation (The Lament Of The Cherokee Reservation Indian), Steppin Out, Kicks, and Hungry.

The British Invasion of 1964-1966 did greatly influence the garage band sound as many local American bands (often surf or hot rod groups) began augmenting a British Invasion sound. The British Invasion also inspired new, and often very raw, bands to form. Garage rock bands were generally influenced by those British bands with a harder, blues-based attack, such as The Kinks, The Who, The Animals, The Yardbirds, The Pretty Things and The Rolling Stones. The Beatles were an all-pervasive musical influence during this time, but as they had their harder and softer musical sides, were disdained by some of the more purist garage rock bands^{[citation needed]}. Another influence was the folk-rock of the Byrds and Bob Dylan, especially on bands such as the Leaves. For other uses, see British Invasion (disambiguation). ...

Looking back from a later perspective, it is generally agreed that Garage rock peaked both commercially and artistically in 1966. It went into a slow, but irreversible, decline beginning in the Fall of 1967, with fewer and fewer examples of the genre being released in 1968 and 1969, and generally disappearing entirely by 1970. One reason, perhaps, it declined is that it was not an identified genre in its own time.

"Garage rock" comes from the perception that many such performers were young and amateurish, and often rehearsed in a family garage. This connotation also evokes a suburban, middle-class setting. It is, of course, quite simplistic to conclude that all garage bands met this demographic dynamic. Some bands were made up of middle-class teenagers from the suburbs, while others were comprised of professional musicians in their twenties or older.

The performances were often amateurish or naïve. Typical themes revolved around the traumas of high school life. Songs about "lying girls" were particularly common. Superficially, this implies that the music was very limited. In reality, "Garage rock" performers were quite diverse in both musical ability and in style. Bands ranged the gamut from one-chord musical crudeness (e.g., The Seeds, The Keggs) to near-studio musician quality (e.g., The Knickerbockers, The Remains, The Fifth Estate). There were also regional variations in many parts of the country with the Pacific Northwest states of Washington and Oregon having the best defined regional sound. The Seeds were a 1960s rock and roll band whose raw and abrasive energy and simple, repetitive lyrics came to exemplify the garage rock style. ... 60s Group Famous for their hit Lies a Lennon-McCartney Penned tune never recorded or released by their group The Beatles The Knickerbockers formed in 1964 by Buddy Randell (vocals, sax), previously of the Royal Teens, who had a hit with Short Shorts.

Thousands of garage bands were extant in the USA and Canada during the era. Several dozen of these produced national hit records, including "Psychotic Reaction" by The Count Five (1966), "Pushin' Too Hard" by The Seeds (1966), "Gloria" by the Shadows of Knight (1966), "96 Tears" by Question Mark and the Mysterians (1966), "Talk Talk" by The Music Machine (1966), "Louie, Louie" by The Kingsmen (1963-64), "Dirty Water" by The Standells (1966), "Double Shot (of My Baby's Love)" by The Swingin' Medallions (1966) and "Little Bit O'Soul" by The Music Explosion.

As one would expect, most garage bands were commercial failures. This is despite scores of such bands being signed to major or large regional labels. For instance, "Going All The Way" by The Squires is now regarded as a genre classic, but was not a hit anywhere and was issued on a national label (Atco). The Squires were an American garage band in the 1960s, who have a claim to being the quintessential example of the genre. ...

By 1968 the style largely disappeared from the national charts (“Question of Temperature” by The Balloon Farm was a notable exception), and was disappearing at the local level as new styles had evolved to replace garage rock (e.g., progressive rock, country rock, Bubblegum, etc.) and as the music industry withdrew its support. In Detroit garage rock stayed alive until the early 70s, but with a much more aggressive style than early garage rock.

Revival

The garage rock revival is a musical phenomenon largely influenced by the original garage rock of the 1960s. Its earliest roots can be traced to the early 1970s, following the release of Nuggets in 1972 and continues to this day through the Western World as modern youngsters continue to pay tribute to a vanished golden age of rock and roll that was 1960s garage rock. Proto punk bands of the early '70s such as The Stooges and The New York Dolls were arguably garage rock revivalists. Iggy Pop had been in a mid-sixties, Detroit garage band, The Iguanas, who released a version of Bo Diddley's "Mona" in 1966 and recorded many other songs that fit within the genre. Nuggets can refer to several branches of interest: Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968, a musical album of 1965-1968 Nuggets, Vol. ...

Bo Diddleys emphasis on rhythm largely influenced popular music, especially that of rock and roll in the 1960s. ...

In the 1980s, another garage rock revival saw a number of bands earnestly trying to replicate the sound, style, and look of the '60s garage bands (see The Chesterfield Kings, The Fuzztones, The Milkshakes, and The Cynics as examples of this); this trend coincided with a similar surf rock revival, and both styles fed in into the alternative rock movement and future grunge music explosion, which some say was partially inspired by garage rock from Seattle like The Sonics and The Wailers, but was largely unknown by fans outside the immediate circles of the bands themselves.

This movement also evolved into an even more primitive form of garage rock that became known as garage punk by the late 1980s, thanks to bands such as The Gories, Thee Mighty Caesars, The Mummies, and The Devil Dogs. Bands playing garage punk differed from the garage rock revival bands in that they were less cartoonish caricatures of '60s garage bands and their overall sound was even more loud, obnoxious, and raw, often infusing elements of proto punk and 1970s punk rock (hence the "garage punk" term).

The garage rock revival and garage punk coexisted throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s with many independent record labels releasing thousands of records by bands playing various styles of primitive rock and roll all around the world. Some of the more prolific of these independent record labels included Estrus, Hangman, Rip Off, MuSick, In The Red, Telstar, Crypt, Dionysus, Get Hip, Bomp!, Music Maniac and Long Gone John's Sympathy for the Record Industry.

In the 2000s, a garage rock revival gained mainstream appeal and commercial airplay, something that had eluded garage rock bands of the past. This was lead by four bands christened by the media as the "The" bands:The Hives, The Vines, The Strokes, and The White Stripes, the latter of which came out of the prominent Detroit rock scene which also include; Von Bondies, The Dirtbombs, The Detroit Cobras, The Go, The Sights, The Hentchmen, Fortune & Maltese and the Paybacks. Elsewhere, other lesser-known acts such as The Boss Martians, The (International) Noise Conspiracy, Satan's Pilgrims, The 5.6.7.8's, The New Bomb Turks, the Oblivians, Teengenerate, The Makers, Mooney Suzuki, The Flaming Sideburns, Guitar Wolf, Lost Sounds, The Kills, and The Young Werewolves enjoyed moderate underground success and appeal. Other notable bands that enjoyed commercial success, but not to the extent of the "Big Four" (The Hives, The Vines, The Strokes, and the White Stripes), were Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Datsuns, Kings of Leon, Jet, The Hellacopters and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, though some of these bands popped up on the scene a few years following the initial wave.
