| dbo:abstract | The United States of America byla americká hudební skupina, náležející k první generaci undergroundu. Založili ji roku 1967 v Los Angeles skladatel a textařka a zpěvačka . Oba vycházeli ze znalosti moderní artificiální hudby, kterou propojovali s postupy experimentálního rocku a psychedelického rocku. The United States of America nahradili kytary zvukem syntezátorů, patřili k průkopníkům využívání elektroniky včetně v populární hudbě, v jejich obsazení byly také elektrické housle a cemballo. Skupina se vyznačovala také společenskokritickým obsahem svých textů: Byrd byl členem Komunistické strany USA a ve shodě s ironickým názvem skupiny pranýřoval americký způsob života založený na konzumu. Skupina absolvovala v atmosféře vrcholícího hnutí hippies turné po USA, na kterém její hudební vystoupení přerůstala v provokativní happeningy. Na počátku roku 1968 vydali The United States of America své jediné eponymní album a krátce poté se skupina rozpadla. Joe Byrd se přeorientoval na skládání filmové hudby, přednášel také muzikologii na . Dorothy Moskowitzová se stala zpěvačkou ve skupině Country Joe McDonalda. Navzdory své krátké existenci a mizivému komerčnímu ohlasu The United States of America výrazně ovlivnili další vývoj avantgardního a politicky angažovaného rocku.

(fr) The United States of America was an American experimental rock band founded in Los Angeles in 1967 by composer Joseph Byrd and vocalist Dorothy Moskowitz, with electric violinist Gordon Marron, bassist Rand Forbes and drummer Craig Woodson. Their 1968 self-titled album, often cited as an early showcase for the use of electronic devices in rock music, was met with critical acclaim and minor chart success. They disbanded shortly after its release. The group’s sound was grounded in both psychedelia and the avant-garde. Unusually, the band had no guitar player; instead, they used strings, keyboards and electronics, including primitive synthesizers, and various audio processors, including the ring modulator. Many of the songs' lyrics reflected Byrd's leftist political views. AllMusic described them as "among the most revolutionary bands of the late '60s."

(it) The United States of America was van 1967 tot 1968 een Amerikaanse rockband met experimentele en psychedelische rockmuziek. De band was een voorloper in het gebruik van elektronische muziek in rock-'n-roll, met name in de gebruikmaking van ringmodulatie, terwijl gitaarmuziek daarbij geen rol speelde. In 1968 werd het titelloze debuut- en enige studioalbum uitgebracht. Hoewel het album goed ontvangen werd door critici, belandde het album slechts in de onderste regionen van de Billboard Top LPs. Kort daarop viel de band uit elkaar. (nl) The United States of America – amerykańska grupa rockowa, wykonująca psychodelicznego rocka, związana z ruchem hippisowskim.
