The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced its 2019 induction class.
It includes a host of big names, all of which were vital in shaping their respective subgenres—and rock as a whole.
The hall will welcome post-punk pioneers, The Cure, hard rockers Def Leppard and Janet Jackson.
Also joining the all-star class is The Zombies, Roxy Music, Radiohead, who were also nominated last year, and Stevie Nicks, making her the first woman to be inducted into the hall twice.
Nominees who did not make it on this year's list include Devo, Kraftwerk, LL Cool J, MC5, John Prine, Rage Against the Machine, Rufus ft. Chaka Khan and Todd Rundgren.
The induction ceremony is set to take place on Friday, Mar. 29, 2019 at Barclays Centre in New York City.
