rock anthem
Arena crowd unifier
A rock anthem is a powerful, emotionally charged rock song designed to be sung along to by large crowds.
These songs typically feature soaring melodies, driving rhythms, and climactic choruses that invite audience participation: The band closed with their biggest rock anthem and twenty thousand voices sang every word.
Stadium rock bands of the 1970s and 80s perfected the form.
