Sob Rock is a broad music style and aesthetic commonly associated with sadness. It's a mellow vibe, usually enjoyed while wearing comfy pants and eating a pint of ice cream alone.
The girl I like doesn't like me back. I'm gonna go listen to some Sob Rock to really feel all these feelings of sadness.

Mournful, grandiose "deep and meaningful" pedestrian music produced by artists taking themselves too seriously, for people who take their trivial problems too seriously. Usually depressing slow tracks which would not be out of place in a sales rep's Mondeo.
Sob-Rock Bands: Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Elbow, Travis, Keane, Radiohead, U2, OneRepublic, Embrace, REM, Matchbox Twenty.
