Rockism is essentially a prejudiced attitude to any form of popular music that doesn't conform to the values of rock music (in the most narrow and conventional sense of the term.) The most obvious example of this is the tendency of middle-aged fans of 'classic rock' to describe any music that involves the overt use of electronic instruments as not 'real music'.
Do you really think Jethro Tull are better than Kraftwerk, or is it just rockism?

Extremely narrow-minded taste in music. Rock 'purists' who are so obsessed with raw blues-based rock music that they fail to appreciate anthing else.

This is basically the reason why people complain about rock being 'dead' these days and belive that all current music made now is pure garbage (the only current bands rockists like are The White Stripes and The Strokes).

However if they actually opened their minds for once they would realise the great music of the 2000's.

Seriously, Rock is an amazing genre and I listen to it heaps, but there is so muchmore to hear.
"DUUUUH I only like heavy rock music I HATE ALL POP, R&B, RAP, COUNTRY, JAZZ, CLASSICAL, ELECTRONICA, REGGAE, SKA Blah, blah blah,"

You sir, are a rockist idiot. Rockism stinks.
