  • Hard Rock - Born to be Wild by Steppenwolf
  • Metal - Immigrant Song by Led Zeppelin
  • Folk - Times They Are A-Changin by Bob Dylan
  • Country (Southern) Rock - Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd
  • Grunge - Feels Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  • Alternative Rock - Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve
  • Pure Country - Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash
  • Pop - Thriller by MJ

Don't know if I would classify these as Hard Rock and Metal...
