Laundry Rock

Overproduced, melodic, often folky and/or sometimes "indie" sounding music used in advertisements by large companies to market their products and services to young and/or hip consumers. There is a caveat to this definition as sometimes well established bands and artists license their music to these very companies for use in such advertisements. The term itself refers to laundry detergent ads, which are repeat offenders for this type of "la-la," feel good music.
Typically, acoustic guitars, glockenspiels, banjos and electro-mechanical keyboards (such as a wurlitzer piano) are common timbres heard in a laundry rock piece. Also common are soft sounding, layered male or female vocals.

Rock Band

The best invention to make your children want to play real life drums. Using a guitar hero drumset makes the drums in the game look pretty much identical to regular drum kits. The game is obviously similar to guitar hero except that now you have drums and microphones. Playing the guitar im this game wont make you come far in real life, but learning how to play the drums will make you get a good sense of BPM. The singing on easy will simply make you understand the lyrics, but even if you sound a horse getting buttfucked in the face you can get lots of points. If you want to learn drums, rock band can be a good start for you. When you manage to complete expert without trouble, you can start learning which pattern resembles the correct pad on real drums ( on most drum kits.) rock band was the reason i learned how to play drums, and became the most repected guy in my school.

Stock Rock

Rock and Roll music that is typically provided to commercial producers either royalty free or extremely cheap to produce. Notable for its cheesy quality and generic likeness to other Stock Rock songs found in varying commercials. Used by marketing to add an "impacting" or "badass" quality to the commercial, typically to questionable effect.
I get that this commercial is trying to sound badass, but I cannot take the Stock Rock music seriously.
