← Timeline
In 1965, the electric guitar became the heartbeat of popular music as rock bands plugged in while folk musicians picked up amplifiers, creating a restless sound that refused to stay in one lane. This was the year when pop music began to feel dangerous and introspective, with artists exploring darker lyrics and experimental studio techniques that made records feel like secret conversations.
