The Bands Who Changed Music

When one looks over the course of modern music, there are only a handful of acts that truly changed the face of music. Here, the term modern refers to the post-Elvis days. These bands were so vital to the development of music that should they never had strummed a chord, our current perceptions of music would exist on a different plane.

They are, in no particular order-
The Beatles
The Beach Boys
The Kinks
Black Sabbath
Nirvana
