The above, are all very prolific, and incredibly influential bands. All of which have been making albums for almost 40 years.
PS...
Whether you agree with Ice Cube or not...this was a pretty powerful statement...
"Rock & roll is not an instrument; rock & roll is not even a style of music. Rock & roll is a spirit. … It's been going since the blues, jazz, bebop, soul, R&B, rock & roll, heavy metal, punk rock and, yes, hip-hop. And what connects us all is that spirit. …Rock & roll is not conforming to the people who came before you, but creating your own path in music and in life."
-Ice Cube, during N.W.A.'s 2016 Rock Hall induction acceptance speech
