Post-Rock

A style of music conceived after Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart had passionate, time traveling, inanimate sex with classic Rock albums from Bands ranging from ACDC to Lynyrd Skynyrd. The resulting child has guitar riffs that make Hellen Keller listen again, songs that speak volumes without saying a word, and (If you listen with your eyes closed) the music will give a high so high that you can throw piss bombs on Stealth Bombers as you experience an eargasm so profound that your mind will be blow, reformed, then blown again. In other words: Post-Rock is the musical equal to a Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kick to the unprotected groin.
Post-Rock

Man 1: Hey kid listen to this. *Extends earphones playing blissful utterances of Angels (AKA Post Rock)

Boy 2: Okay bro *Places blissful musical blissfulness into his virgin ears*

*Boy magically transforms into Man and learns answers to life's age old question's: The egg came before the chicken because it takes a rooster to make the egg an embryo. The price off eggs in China is $0.00- You get eggs given to you by the Honorable Chairman, not bought you ignorant capitalists. Solo did shoot first.*

The two men then look into each others eyes. Nod agreeably then part ways. Brothers in Rock. Enlightened and bonded forever.

Rock Stare

A phrase invented by Kmart that no one actually uses. A lame attempt by a corporate entity to relate to an age group they know nothing about. Kids that use this phrase are frequently punched in the face. Especially if their clothes are from Kmart.
Boy 1 - I think that girl is giving me the rock stare!

Boy 2 - No, she's staring at that super lame Family Guy printed tee you got from Kmart. *punches in face*

classic rock

Classic rock is a style of music that arose in the late 50's/early 60's out of the then-popular blues genre. It was mainly derived from British teenagers who attempted to emulate the blues movement in the U.S. but created a whole new style all their own. Classic rock is known for its warm, overdriven guitar sounds, unique drumming patterns, melodic vocals, and simple yet innovative chord progressions. 90% of classic rock is based off the I-IV-V chord progression, and yet it all sounds different-quite an accomplishment if you ask me. Some of the best music in the world falls in the classic rock genre. In the 70's, classic rock began to progress and sound more modernized, with bands such as Journey, later Pink Floyd, and Boston spearheading the movement. Classic rock is not to be confused with southern rock.
Some well-known classic rock bands are Led Zeppelin, Cream, AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, Dire Straits, Queen, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, ZZ Top, Journey, Boston, Foreigner, etc...
