A broad term for a variety of bands, spanning all rock genres, that transcend the typical styles and themes of their genres. The band often combines experimental, avant-garde styles into their music. Because of the nature of art rock, the definition is a vague one and person A may consider a band art rock, while person B does not.
The term originated in reference to bands such as pink floyd, who's members originally went to art school, but now can apply to even bands such as Thursday and Mineral.
Often confused with progressive-punk. Indeed, they were once synonyms, but over time have diverged; prog becoming it's own genre of music while art rock maintaining loose and subjective to interpretation.

A completely pointless required class in every grade of High School. You learn so much crap you don't need. I mean seriously, when you talk to your friends, do you think.."Oh Crap, I need a pronoun in front of this adverb to make the sentence complete!"? NO! Just another pointless hour out of a teenagers day, and another fat F on your report card.
Damn! I failed all four Language Arts classes, I gotta take all four my Senior year.
Language Arts is so damn boring!

Art matters...well, it means art can make a real and tangible difference in people’s lives. With it you can express things that you hadn’t been able to in words. It’s a lasting representation of our past.
Here’s an example. The siege of Leningrad. The Germans had taken over Leningrad in WW2 for about two whole years, but the starving orchestra performed an amazing, compelling piece of music. They played it across the city and right in the Germans’ faces. Soon after, they gained back control of the city.

The term art matters encourages all of us to not only learn to make art, but to appreciate it it all its beauty. You don’t have to be good at it to know that it matters.

Generally a girl that likes to draw, paint, or any type of art. They wear trendy or unique style clothes, sometimes lots of black and dyed hair. They are usually quiet, however, if you get to know them you will not regret it. Also they are extreme fangirls.
Ashley: “Woah! Who drew that?”
Sam: “The girl with the fishnet leggings”
Ashley: “oh of course, the art girl“
