Butt Rock

Butt Rock is a term created around the middle of the nineteen nineties. Butt Rock is most commonly defined as the mainstream categories of Rock and Metal created and played from the mid-nineteen seventies to the early part of the nineteen nineties (ending with the immerging popularity of the Grunge and Alternative styles). Bands like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath paved are Butt Rock icons who paved the way for future Butt Rockers.

Some also refer to the era at the end of the 80’s where make-up wearing, long curly hair and tight bright colored leather were the most popular apparel. Bands like Poison, Warrant, Slaughter and Winger are a few examples of this style of music. Some refer to this as “Booty Rock” and wrongly associate the two terms “Booty” and “Butt”. A better synonym for the term “Booty” in this context would be “Glam” or “Glamour” due to this style’s over-emphasized value on look and show. It is ultimately important to note that, though “Glam Rock” is a subcategory of Butt Rock, it does not in itself contain the entire definition.

Another important note on this subject is that of the new-wave and punk styles. These do not fit into the Butt Rock category because they were actually rebels of the mainstream categories of Rock and Pop during this time.

Butt Rock commonly finds its home today in most local clubs a surprising decade or more after its almost complete extinction from popular radio and TV. The main reason for this is how readily Butt Rock lends itself to the natural instinct of electric guitar players. There are many opportunities for over-distorted guitar solos filled with as many notes as the performer can comfortably play in the allotted time (which was a common thread in the Butt Rock era).

Fusion is the most recent emergence of Butt Rock. Musicians who have spent years mastering complicated Butt Rock techniques and styles are seeking a more mainstream output of their talents and therefore attempt to fuse their ‘guitar shredding’ (or ‘fast playing’) techniques with another different or more popular style of music. The most popular things to fuse for these misplaced Butt Rock musicians is Rock and Blues, Rock and Jazz or Rock and Funk. Unfortunately mainstream audiences tend to broadly recognize this as a loose thread of Butt Rock and the aforementioned artist is rarely successful in achieving the fame he is seeking.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Radioflier. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Radioflier~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
