It includes many daily rock facts, rock trivia, an interactive quiz with a running score, plus 75,000 words of expert critical and historical analysis of 50 classic rock albums – from AC/DC to The Who and everything in between.

The App gives you the opportunity to learn more about 50 of the greatest albums of all time.

With more than 2,000 facts already uploaded, a number that continues to grow, these cover all the major rock musical happenings including classic album releases, artists’ birthdays, drug busts, arrests, festivals, tours – if it’s interesting and a fact, you will hear about it on its anniversary.
