Worst Things About The Term Dad Rock

Just because its original fanbase got older, it does not mean the music itself would become more appealing to the older audience than to teenagers.

It is absurd how people present metal as something designed for older men.

I think this term was originally invented to describe music that only its own generation likes. However, now it is used for every kind of old music instead.

Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Beatles are all called dadrock sometimes although they are entirely different genre.

I hate it when I see "2018? " comments below a 2017 song on YouTube. Who enforces you to listen this year's music?

1. In a few years' time Tame Impala or Linkin Park will be dadrock, then Led Zeppelin will be grandpa-rock? Or are we going to talk about dadrap?

2. I noticed how people are never worried if somebody listens to music older than 60 years (jazz songs from old musicals, great classical composers), just if they listen to 1960s-1970s-1980s hits.

I agree with the idea of this list dad rock is a silly term but to be fair I dislike the term classic rock even more.

I wanted to write, It LOSES validity with time. Sorry.
