fauxbrow 

Perjorative designation for an art object, gesture, attitude, etc, that the critic perceives as existing outside the continuum of judgement: neither lowbrow nor highbrow, fauxbrow indicates a perception that the object of criticism has lost its way via pretense, ideology, dogma, etc. The defining of fauxbrow is itself an example of fauxbrow.
'Anatomy of Hell'? Fauxbrow. The Prime Minister of Australia's foreign policy? Fauxbrow. The Raelians? Utterly fauxbrow. Michel Houellebecq's body of work? Though in places fauxbrow, his most visceral moments are the edifice of a genius.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
