Dad rock is whatever your dad listened to when you grew up, so in my case its 50's Jazz and Japanese Language cassette tapes. It is probably different for you.

Can't wait to hang out with Brad Rock, the rock dad, and discuss why the best Surfer Rosa track is "Brick Is Red."

Fog Tripper posted:I honestly believe that bands like Talking Heads were never actually liked by consumers, but were rather played as though they were in an attempt by big radio to make our collective tastes in music more open to even more sucky music over the years. There is SO much bad music these days, so that supports my theory. Talking Heads own.

corpuscollossus posted:Fugazi maybe, but that depends on what the definition of is is. I am trying to figure out how someone could draw the conclusion that Fugazi is Dadrock. I mean, for one thing, they aren't exactly the best band to drink a few beers to.

glowing-fish posted:So are there any Dadrock bands, from the 1980s or afterwards, who had mainstream radio success (obvious note: Dadrock bands have to have radio success), that were not just an old Dadrock group with the members shifted around or under a different name? Perhaps because they couldn't find any bands to label "dad rock" using the radio metric you mention, critics seem to have settled on Wilco as THE modern dad-rock band, to the point where Jeff Tweedy keeps being interviewed about it in articles like "Jeff Tweedy is Sick of Being Called 'Dad Rock'" (Esquire) and "Jeff Tweedy Dislikes the Term 'Dad Rock'" (Spin). In terms of bands that actually play stadiums and have hits, the post-'80s band that I've heard associated with "dad rock" most often is probably the Foo Fighters.

I can certainly see that with the Foo Fighters, what with being so popular with David Letterman and appearing on Saturday Night Live, and also Dave Grohl palling around with Paul McCartney. I don't think Wilco really qualifies though. The closest thing to Wilco in the Canonical Dadrock pantheon is Neil Young, who was not even Dadrock when he was playing with Crosby, Stills and Nash, a quintessential Dadrock group.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5nnthntzh8 Anyone else think that this song is about alcoholism? The imagery of 'riding the tiger down river euphrates' makes me think of drinking, as it goes down your esophagus. Or maybe it's not, I don't know.

Dad Rock requires a certain surface musical inoffensiveness, combined with success within a particular genre. Talking Heads (particularly post Remain in Light and definitely after Stop Making Sense) had that surface inoffensiveness to the music, but if you listened to the lyrics, it wasn't Dad Rock. However, TH was the best of their genre. The Pixies never had that surface inoffensiveness, and on top of that, the best band of the Pixies genre was Nirvana, who are just outside the Dad Rock time bracket and probably fail the inoffensiveness test too.

Apogee of dad is those who had kids between 1975 and 1985. No other group will ever be as dadly.
