Cock Rock

Description

Cock Rock is a subgenre of rock music characterized by an aggressive, macho style and themes often centered around sex, partying, and rebelliousness. It features loud, distorted guitars, powerful vocals, and anthemic choruses.

History

Cock Rock emerged in the late 1960s and gained prominence in the 1970s and 1980s. It evolved as a reaction to the more introspective and experimental rock of the late 1960s, drawing heavily from the blues-based hard rock of bands like Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones. The genre became synonymous with the glam metal scene of the 1980s, with bands like Mötley Crüe and Guns N' Roses epitomizing its sound and style.
