    Rock is about attitude, expression, creativity, state of mind and way of life. All else is irrelevant (including power chords, loud guitars, amps and other being merely a tool). Take that from a rocker😉

    👍 Very interesting content! I don't restrict myself to any particular genre. Musically, I am an omnivore. The electric guitar, amp and effect pedals consumed me for years. But as I matured, the electric sat in its case, and I have found myself solely drawn to acoustics. I owned two electric guitars for years but gave one away to someone who could not afford to buy one. I have four types of acoustics. Three are quite old and sound much better now that when I purchased them initially. Rock has certainly declined but I think the way pop music is recorded today has had an impact. Why pay a band when you can quantize, cut and paste and have Pro Tools?
    I liked when you addressed the issue of muddy sound with thirds, minor chords, seventh chords and extended chords when played at high volume on electric guitars. The physics of this is beyond my mathematical comprehension but my ear certainly heard it. In the past, many pop and rock songs strayed from solely using power chords. This spices up music. For me, developing a chord vocabulary became important. While I still have affection for many rock songs of the past, I can't limit myself to listening solely to them.

    It's a bit like defining life. Much of what one might say ends up being a list of characteristics rather than strict criteria or necessary or sufficient conditions. Volume, for instance, seems tricky to me. For the first few years I was listening to rock music (i.e., before ever going to a concert) on a radio at the same volume I listened to Dionne Warwick and The Carpenters, was I not listening to rock music. You could say it's dependent on the artists performance, not the listener' experience, but if 2 artists recorded the same material and different volumes (such that it would be indistinguishable to me listening to it on the radio at the volumes I listen to), would one product be rock and the other not?
