Acid Rock is a subgenre of rock music that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is characterized by its heavy use of distorted electric guitars, extended guitar solos, and psychedelic sound effects. It is often associated with the counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s and is often seen as a precursor to the heavy metal genre. Acid Rock is heavily influenced by blues and psychedelic rock, and often incorporates elements of jazz and funk. It is typically played at a fast tempo and features a driving beat.
