Corporate Rock 

the kind of music that is played in the elevators of the places of employment for the 1% ers.

Me in Elevator : Say, what's that sound ? A really bad cover of something by Journey, REO Speedwagon, or Styx maybe ?Friend Next To Me : Could be all of the above. It's elevator muzak, man. Y'know - corporate rock.

Corporate Rock 

Corporate rock is rock music that fails critically but succeeds commerically. Corporate rock is typically appropriate for all listeners, lacks creativity or invention, and establishes broad appeal as a result of heavy marketing and media saturation.

"I have to illegally download my music because I can't stand all the corporate rock on the radio."

Corporate Rock 

Often called "generic" by critics ( a.k.a. talentless attention whores that worship Nirvana ). In contrast with Nirvana (overrated band), it contains catchy tune which causes subliminal indulgence and direct to point message rather than overwritten lyrics (more like poems really), screams/whines/squeals and crappy musical accompaniment.

If you're a magazine editor promote "grunge" for marketing purposes. If you're a producer promote "corporate rock" for marketing purposes.

Corporate rock 

When a company hires musicians to make rock and roll.
The rock typically sounds like something you'd hear in a 2000s teen's movie or a commercial.

Guy 2 "Yeah, it sounded like Corporate rock, I swore I also heard in some shitty teen's movie"
