A) Heavy metal bands

Heavy metal bands have been around since the late 1950s. They originated mainly in the United Kingdom and the United States and have their musical roots in blues-rock and psychedelic music. Two of the most famous bands who are still playing after many years are Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath. Many of the bands were formed by school friends who started playing music together in their family's garage. Bands are usually made up of drums and guitar and possibly a keyboard. A heavy metal band is not just about music but also about image. Band members usually have very long-hair, wear unusual cloths and behave in extreme ways on stage. The songs are far from romantic, and are often about "bad" subjects. The music is loud, and concerts can be unpredictable with the musicians performing strange things on the stage. Their fans are very loyal and on look very much like the band with long hair, beards, jeans and T-shirts with the band's picture on.

B) Boys bands

A boy band is a type of pop group which typically has three or four young male singers. The members of the band generally dance as well as sing, often performing different dances which have been carefully choreographed to fit their music. A boy band generally follows mainstream music trends, and the members will change their appearance to adapt to new fashions. Their shows are usually energetic and exciting to watch. Although they are called "bands", members of boy bands do not usually play musical instruments. They are often put together by talent managers or record companies who look for young singers and choose them for their appearance and dancing skills as well as for their singing ability. For this reason, boy bands are often criticised for being manufactured products. Famous boy bands are Backstreet Boys and Take That. Their audience is generally teenagers, especially young teenagers, and they are particularly popular with young girls.
