Noise pop blends the tunefulness and hook-centric structures of pop with abrasive textures such as feedback, distortion, and tape hiss. It typically features bright, simple melodies buried beneath a dense, overdriven "wall of sound," with vocals often mixed low or coated in reverb. The aesthetic draws on 1960s girl-group and power-pop songwriting but delivers it through punk-informed energy and noise-rock sonics, creating music that is simultaneously sweet and scuffed.

Indie rock is a subgenre of rock and a branch of alternative rock that coalesced in the early–mid 1980s around independent labels and DIY practices in the United Kingdom, the United States, and New Zealand. Defined less by a single sound than by an ethos, indie rock favors non‑mainstream approaches, self‑recording and small‑label distribution, and an interest in pop‑informed melody and eclectic experimentation. Hallmarks include jangly or fuzzed guitars, intimate or deadpan vocals, off‑kilter song structures, and production that often preserves a raw, “authentic” feel rather than glossy studio polish.

Rock andaluz (Andalusian rock) is a Spanish fusion of progressive and psychedelic rock with flamenco and Andalusian folk traditions. It combines electric guitars, bass, and drums with flamenco guitar, palmas (handclaps), and cante jondo–inspired vocals, often within expansive, symphonic arrangements. Characteristically, it draws on Phrygian and Phrygian-dominant modes, the Andalusian cadence (i–♭VII–♭VI–V), and flamenco compás patterns (e.g., bulería, tangos, rumba), while embracing the timbres and structures of 1970s prog (Hammond organ, Mellotron, Moog, long instrumental passages). Lyrically, it reflects Andalusian identity, poetic imagery, and the social winds of Spain’s late-Franco and Transition eras.

Rock is a broad family of popular music centered on amplified instruments, a strong backbeat, and song forms that foreground riffs, choruses, and anthemic hooks. Emerging from mid‑20th‑century American styles like rhythm & blues, country, and gospel-inflected rock and roll, rock quickly expanded in scope—absorbing folk, blues, and psychedelic ideas—while shaping global youth culture. Core sonic markers include electric guitar (often overdriven), electric bass, drum kit emphasizing beats 2 and 4, and emotive lead vocals. Rock songs commonly use verse–chorus structures, blues-derived harmony, and memorable melodic motifs, ranging from intimate ballads to high‑energy, stadium‑sized performances.
