HARD ROCK SONG: Hard rock is a form of loud, aggressive rock music. The electric guitar is often emphasised, used with distortion and other effects, both as a rhythm instrument using repetitive riffs with a varying degree of complexity, and as a solo lead instrument. Drumming characteristically focuses on driving rhythms, strong bass drum and a backbeat on snare, sometimes using cymbals for emphasis. The bass guitar works in conjunction with the drums, occasionally playing riffs, but usually providing a backing for the rhythm and lead guitars. Vocals are often growling, raspy, or involve screaming or wailing, sometimes in a high range, or even falsetto voice.
Yup. Probably the Yardbirds like the OP said. 1965 |

Hard rock just needs the right kind of angst.

Not the earliest, but with solid rocking credentials it's worth a mention - the 1969 cover of a 1942 original:-

It just so happens that, in 1967, the Grateful Dead were considered to be a hard rock band. At least according to Harry Reasoner they were. Go to the 35-second mark:
