1) Plain, generic, commercial "hard rock" that is safe for radio play and appeals to a wider, more tame audience. It does not really adhere to the spirit of rock'n'roll. It seems more like a money making ploy than about the art, emotion, or rebellion. Rock that parents would approve of.
2) Nickelback, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, etc.

Get the gener-rock mug.Generock stems from the words "generic" and "rock". This term can be used colloquially when refering to bands, mostly led by Foo Fighters after the grunge-era of Nirvana, which try very hard to play the same shit everyone else is playing. Examples can be finger eleven, Nickleback, Sum 41 or Jet.
Wow, I haven't heard this song in such a long time. Perfect generock. Can't beleive I liked this once.
