buttrock

A derogatory term for mainstream rock music that derives from a common slogan used by rock radio stations, "station name - Nothing But Rock". The musical definition of buttrock largely depends on the musical tastes of the speaker. It can refer to various genres of mainstream rock from the 70's through the 2000's - common examples include hair metal, grunge, post-grunge, and pop punk.

As I've gotten older, I've become a buttrock enthusiast and I don't care what anyone thinks.
