Buttrock

>>71094241
Ac/dc are the ultimate buttrock band

>>71094241
Breaking Benjamin is a good example
The most common usage of the term is pussified very radio-friendly hard rock

I dont know it's in your imagination

>>71094241
Buttrock came from radio stations that claimed to play "nothing but rock". It's stuff that most "wrong generation" kids and 40 something year olds consider great music compared to today's top 40 that they never stop complaining about.

Think of dumb shit like Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, Poison, Seether, Creed, Puddle of Mudd

Basically low-budget, low-creativity rock. Think hair metal and post-grunge in their entirety

Bon Jovi
Bruce Springsteen
Brian Adams

a big problem with butt-rock is people mix it up with cock-rock

cock-rock is superior to butt-rock

>cock-rock: long hair, spandex, leather, studs, songs about getting drunk and getting pussy
examples: van halen, motley crue, AC/DC

>butt-rock: black wifebeaters, greasy hair, jeans, silver ball necklaces, tribal tattoos
examples: Creed, Nickelbak, Staind

your local rock station.

>car horn
>"this is 84.88 home of rock *does wolf howl*
>ambulance soundclip
>voice clip from an 80s action film
>"where we play nothing BUTT ROCK"
>goal horn

>>71094267
AC/DC is pure buttrock but at least they could be entertaining singing about big balls

>>71094315
>Motley Crue,
Is a good band, Poison are alright too. Twisted Sister sound gay

>>71094315
is Metallica butt-rock?

Blues inspired rock music that plays the same old shit. E minor/G major. Pentatonic scale shapes on guitar. 4/4. 4, 8, 16, 32 bar sections. Guitar, bass, drumset (sometimes some other instrument) fronted by egotistical garbage vocalists.

>>71094341
>cock rock
>superior to butt rock

No both are equally deplorable

>>71094370
Metallica, Nirvana and Stone Temple Pilots are what all buttrock bands aspire to be

I think they are above it because they came before it by quite some time

I compiled an indefinite list (some cockrock is just as bad as buttrock):
>AC/DC
>Breaking Benjamin
>Seether
>Creed
>Nickelback
>Staind
>Puddle of Mudd

Avoid these bands and bands that sound like them.

>>71094423
could it be argued that Metallica eventally devolved into a buttrock band?

It's post-Nirvana alt-rock like Breaking Benjamin, Nickelback, Creed and Staind

The thing is, some buttrock bands aren't all that bad if you just listen for fun. Foo Fighters for example are not very creative or interesting but they're still fun to listen to with friends, they put on a great show, etc. Sometimes masturbatory rock isn't all that bad, we all liked radio friendly music at some point.

nah early limp bizkit had some groove to it and some cool samples and drumming

a buttrock band would have to be something without any value to it whatsoever.

So probably something like Nickleback

>>71094867
Yeah but let's not dismiss the fact that buttrock fans actually think that they are better than the rest since they actually think that they listen to non-radio friendly music, when in fact, it is.

Metallica, as someone else pointed out, has fallen into the buttrock curse. There is no saving them. Frontman even looks like posterman for buttrockies

>>71096879
We don't have one of those in my area, instead we have a station that plays non-stop glam metal and Foreigner.

So I say no, not in this market anyways.

Beyond a matter of quality, Muse is a different sort of thing than buttrock, they aren't playing many Muse songs on Buttrock radio, thats for sure. Buttrock is more specifically things on generic "rock" radio rather than radio that calls itself "alternative" which is where Muse's niche typically is

Muse suffers a strange case of "buttrock", they look like buttrockers and their fanbase are just pretentious buttrockers, but they don't sound like Creed or FFDP. Maybe they are post-buttrock, buttrock for pseudointellectual faggots who grow out of their pure buttrock phase.

>>71094241
Seether actually isn't that bad.

Butt rock is literally post-grunge. I'm sure there's generally some overlap with other genres but really. Google post-grunge and you'll see.

This is why you should never listen to Origin of Symmetry first, it's their least inventive album.

>>71097363
Early Bon Scott era AC/DC kinda make sense in the context of the time, and made some alright albums (Powerage holds up pretty well), but I think it's safe to say that for at least 20 years now AC/DC have been occupying a sizeable space in the buttrock universe.

>>71107053
CIGARETTE

>Audioslave
Gets a pass because of Chris Cornell.

>Cage the Elephant
Corporate indie pop rock, but still nowhere near buttrock. They're a lot better than what Ain't No Rest for the Wicked lets on.

>Days of the New
Literally triggered me. Remove them from this list at once.

>Foo Fighters
Hear me out on this one. They're more of a pop rock band; they're not nearly edgy enough to fit into the butt category. Plus Dave Grohl's singing voice isn't terrible.

>Incubus
Once again, not edgy enough and the singer's voice isn't bad. Plus they're a lot more innovative than your average mainstream rock band.

>Stone Sour
>Switchfoot
See Foo FIghters

>The Offspring
They're a pop punk band. Not that it's much less stigmatized of a label, but it's still a step above buttrock.

>>71094370

>>71107852
It's funny because most ex-crabcore bands are more or less buttrock nowadays (e.g. Of Mice & Men, Beartooth, Escape The Fate etc.)

>>71109215
Look, if you're a white angsty 16 year old, we understand it. Even if you don't happen to fit that profile. But please understand that the music you listen to is even more braindead than pop music (which is actually an amazing genre).

>>71109296
>the music you listen to is even more braindead than pop music

Where did I claim pop is braindead? I only said I like these bands, that doesn't mean I don't listen to anything else.

And even if someone did, what kind of argument is "this music you listen to is braindead?".

>>71109354
You don't have to claim it, I'm just making a general comparison, since a lot of rockstans always shit on pop music for being thoughtless and such. Also, it's not an argument to call a subgenre or a group of bands braindead, it is merely an observation from my side. I called it braindead because the vast majority of buttrock bands have no clue what experimentation is, it is highly formulaic music specifically tailored for the nichemarket of teenagers who think they don't fit in with the rest of society, when in fact, they do.

I'm not saying there is something wrong with you, btw. (You asked that question, my answer is no.)

By people I obviously mean people that are actually into music.

Of course people are going to like it... Not everything needs to be serious and edgy. Pop music proves that art can be fun and engaging at the same time.

>>71094565
I'm surprised Tool hasn't been mentioned yet, especially among the likes of Chevelle and the Deftones. I mean, I still unironically enjoy Tool, but they seem to at least fall into the buttrock category from time to time. Radio Stations that play lots of buttrock tend to throw Tool into the mix.

>>71094386

Nope, cockrock is cool as fuck and high T. Buttrock is an abomination

>>71094315
Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, and Poison are pop/hair metal.

Seether, Creed, and Puddle of Mudd are the only ones you listed that fit pretty comfortably in the buttrock category, though I'd say Creed is a bit more distinct because it's not as raunchy as most buttrock tends to be.

I'd add Nickelback, Breaking Benjamin, Buck Cherry, and Theory of a Deadman to the Buttrock category as well.
