I can't wait until Polyphia and Sleep Token are classified as DAD ROCK

If slipknot, korn and other 2000s metal bands are considered "Dad Rock", then deep purple, led zeppelin, black sabbath and ACDC should be considered "GrandDad Rock"

50s-60s -Great Grandpa Rock 70s-80s Grandpa Rock 90s-00s Dad Rock 10s-20s Kid Rock… wait not that one

mindfuck: we are now further away in time from SOAD's first album than they were from Metallica's first album. We're old now.

2:38 one of the most "I'm old" moments of my life came last years. You see, my cousin, a 14 year old girl, was throwing a 2000's themed party. You know, like it was a retro thing. It was sort of bizarre watching all those children dressed like my middle school buddies. My cousin was dressed very similarly to an ex girlfriend of mine. It was very bizarre. And it made me feel ancient

12 years ago I mentioned to someone younger than me that I was on my way to a concert by Soundgarden. They told me that Soundgarden was Dad Rock. That opened my eyes to how old I was getting.

This is the most roundabout way of saying "Getting old sucks".

as a dad, i can confirm my 3 year old loves slipknot as much as i do.. he likes 'clownman' not even kidding..

I remember hearing Green Day for the first time on a classic rock radio station. That was a paradigm shift for me.

I don't know what's rock or metal anymore. I'll just keep digging my 70's stuff anyway...

Its just Rock. Doesnt matter how old as long as it fucking rocks.

I nearly died when a younger coworker responded to me playing "Before I forget" with I love classic rock.

Still goes to show that first gen clasic rock late 60s to early 80s has a lot of staying power. It will probably be relevant for much longer than we anticipated.

All I know is nickleback is real metal

I walked into Hot Topic yesterday and almost everyone there was definitely gen Z or younger... and I pondered this very thing as I heard Kashmir by Led Zeppelin playing.

For my kids, their dad rock was maiden, Megadeth, Pantera, AIC, soundgarden.

My dad listened to 50s and 60s music. Little Richard, The Big Bopper, The Mamas and the Papas. I always saw 60s bands like The Beatles, The Beach Boys and the Zombies as classic rock.

When Dragonforce were playing Twitchcon, the chat was going wild with 'DAD ROCK DAD ROCK BOOMER' talk

2000s is still fresh to me

I felt officially old when Motorhead's Ace of spades showed up in a Kia commercial.

This music rocks so hard, it left to get the milk 🤘

It’s a confusing term because it really doesn’t mean “rock that dads listen.” Like, there’s already a small number of Gen Z guys who are dads but I wouldn’t call what they’re listening to dad rock. It has to be dads of teenagers, because it’s really about having kids that want to poke your holy cows and dismissing your preferences as dated and cringe. Which is a teen thing.

Bradley this has nothing to do with the video but I just wanted to give you thanks for being a MASSIVE inspiration for me for guitar and keeping up on my bean consumption! Anyways thanks for everything! Cheers brother. And keep eating those beans!

Aerosmith will always be dad rock, even after humans have disappeared.

I love your content m8. I hope you're not gone in 20 years. I want some more content when I'm fifty-something, and you'll be just comparing all the new stuff to the old ones with the same memic old yt vibe.

I had this realization when i heard pearl jam and other 90s rock on the classic rock radio, though I was a small child when pearl jam came out. At 33 and having a 6 year old I realize that Im the old guy now. 90s and 2000s rock IS dad rock, old man rock. I worked with a bunch of 20 year olds and realized I was seeing live shows before they were born lol

Dad prog when?

It's nu metal time, BRING IT ON! GET THE F* UP!

My child’s grandfather will be a Megadeath and Ramstein fan that blows my mind

It's actually interesting like I'm in my early 20s and listen to a lot of classic rock, early prog stuff , Nu metal, grunge Queen (the most) etc and someone who's listening to modern bands only have different perspectives towards Dad Rock

I love my dad's music taste, it got me into what i listen to today. mind you he cant stand any harsh vocals and has a hissy fit if he hears a shreddy guitar solo that doesnt have enough 'feel', but im happy im listening to good music rather than the shite that is popular today

I guess the Old Dad Rock should be called Granddad Rock and the "new" ara of Dad Rock is now officially Dad Rock :D

Thanks to all those kids every new generation who listen to The Beatles. You are doing a great service for the elderly.

Dad rock has nothing to do with a time frame. Dad rock was rock and roll that had zero edge to it. Whatever you think of certain bands... Bands like led zeppelin, black sabbath queen, even kiss were considered "heavy", "dangerous" for there respective time frames. Bruce springsteen, huey lewis and the news, phil collins, etc.; were never considered dangerous for there respective time frames. I'm not a huge fan of moving the goal posts. Led zeppelin is not dad rock. It's classic rock. Black sabbath birth heavy metal. Metallica was thrash. Until they lost their identity. Just because time moves on does not mean that musical genres get categorized differently by the next generation. Dad rock is safe very unedgy music during its respective time frame. If dads, of the time loved it, then as considered dad rock. Not too many dads were listening to KISS in the 70s. Because people actually believed they were called Knights in satan's service. Actual ground bREAking bands are not data rock just because time moves on. It has nothing to do with the generation. Has to do with how safe it was. Compared to its COMPETITION that were considered dangerous.

class of 2000 here. dad rock like Bozz Scaggs and Santana, Peter Frampton and Creedance and Clearwater. And stuff we liked was 70s and 80s punk. we were 11/12/13 listening to that stuff, while nirvana was new on the radio. :D then when grunge died out immediately into the mid 90s we were in highschool and we were knee deep in 80s thrash metal. while the kids were getting into RATM and Korn. It wasn't till i moved to a bigger city that i got exposed to more current metal and numetal in the late 90s. but emo was just starting to go hard in the little town i left. old school emo not that pansy stuff.

Calling the music I heard on the radio in the early 2000s "dad rock" seems to indicate that I, at the ripe old age of 24, should be married with at least one child right now (which I'm not 😢)... There seems to be something so painfully wrong with categorizing Linkin Park and MCR as "dad rock".

Just enjoy music and don't wory about labels 😊 🤘

Just paused this vid to ask Alexa to play some dad rock .... FFS wish I hadn't bothered.... first song that came up was Bob Marley, second was coldplay .... What the actual feck 🤣😂🤣

I have a song from 1999 in a playlist titled "old stuff", if that makes you feel any worse.

My Chemical Romance isn't Dad Rock, becauae anyone who would still listen to it doesn't have a female in there life, therefore they are not a dad

I was 10 years old back in 2001, and I remember my father and stepmother used to listen to this sort of stuff all the time back then and still do to this day. Music is for everyone, regardless of age. It is timeless, and that is the beauty of it.

By the time I'm a dad, I'll be listening to current dad rock.

I never really got the whole Dad rock idea. I think being Gen X, where so much of our music was influenced by the 60s music of our parents, we didn't really walk around with an idea that someone like Jimmy Hendrix or Deep Purple were 'dad rock'. I tend to file this under labels like 'mid', where it just seems like a label people put on something as a rhetorical technique to make something seem lame

I think that this scene from the 70s and 80s is still referred to as dad rock because it was more mature, more arranged and technical music, in times where artists had a lot of competition, 100% new genres and ideas emerged every year, and You needed to be really good to survive this competition. which is different from the original music from the 90s and 2000s onwards, which was more motivated and arranged around emotions such as youthful anger and revolt, apart from the flirtations with the modernity of pop music and radio genres. something similar happened when the punk rock movement emerged, where those people considered hard rock and heavy metal people to be a bunch of "boring old men", and came with their simplistic and nervous music

I'm 21 and I still listen rock from 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and some of 1980s and 1990s

My Hero by Foo Fighters and Schism by Tool are the essence of dad rock.

I commited the mistake of searching who 'Florin Salam' was from Bradley's spotify search history. Now I have transcended to a new musical sensitivity level where I am unsure of what is good and what is bad.

I cant believe the editing effort you put in your videos

I'll be 40 in June! I feel this video!

Sabbath, AC/DC, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rush, Stained, Disturbed, Nickelback, Puddle Of Mud.....dad rock. I'm still rolling Cannibal Corpse, Fear Factory, Death, Deicide, Morbid Angel, mixed with Jinjer, Slaughter To Prevail, Fit For An Autopsy, Cattle Decapitation, Meshuggah, etc.

we are the same age beansley and this resonates with me a lot

2000s was so long ago, thinking back how the world was back then and the life I had feels like looking back at another life

See I’ve always stuck with the metal genre but I’m 23 now and I’ve really started listening to many different bands and sub genres then what I started from but tbh I respect all sub genres and love all metal music , besides sleep token 🤢 for the life of my I can’t get into them

Here's the real problem....If it came out today, it'll be Dad rock by 8pm.

SPEAK THE TRUTH MIGHTY METAL MESSIAH MR. HALL

Been loving these longer, hilarious, yet poignant videos! XD

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL BRADLEY!!!!! I AM FROM BRAZIL🇧🇷

I mostly listen to Dad Black Metal

It kills me when people on Reddit talk shit about nu metal and metal core kids these days and I need to remind them that nu metal kids "these days" in well in to their 40's.

Thinking of Slipknot in the same way as Scott Joplin is a little too much for me. Thank god it’s recorded better at least.

I was talking to a younger person about metal and i mentioned Soilwork and they said "oh, classic rock"... it hit me in the soul.

Sounds like Bradley is now old enough to say “how do you do fellow kids!”

When I think of Dad Rock I think of new wave bands like Simple Minds or INXS, that's the kind of music my dad listens the most. He's an early genX and I'm a zilennial.

Funny he mentioned periphery, because apparently they are almost 20 years old (2005).

I'm going to be 41 in a week and at this point Pearl Jam is now classic rock. Kind of hurts my brain.

My dad had a classic dad rock album but it paid off with one random track, Eyes of Wrath by Testament....and then in to hocus pocus by focus or some random thing

My son told me Pearl Jam were dad rock because they were in th "dad rock essentials" on Apple Music ... Aparantly Alice in Chains, Nirvana & Soundgarden are still cool though

2000s metalcore is dad rock! \m/

The Best Guitar Content On KZfaq 🎉

So I remember that up until I was about 10 years old, and started venturing out to find music that I, myself liked… my musical taste comprised of what my parents exposed me to. This was Boston, Journey, REO Speedwagon, Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special, and so on. Now I see the same thing with my five year old… his favorite music is what my wife and I have exposed him to. That means in just a few years, that our music will be “The music my parents listened to”…

Lmfao love the video man, also do you have any tips for me learning serrana by jason Becker Bradley? I been playing for like 5 years but only just started sweep picking lol

It took me forever to get into real music. For the longest time, I just listened to video game OSTs, anime openings, surface-level electro, and the Protomen. It took me until 2021 to really start listening to music, and I started with The Downward Spiral from 1994. To this day, I don't typically listen to anything released past 2009, and my favorite band is TOOL.

My kids don’t know these bands, but they know who Bradley Hall is and they know the solo to Tornado of souls by heart. 🤘

Oh my god, is that me in the thumb nail holding a cuppa tea!

Does that mean darkthrone are dad black metal

If these bands are Dad rock, based on how all of the polls on your channel go you got alot of grand dads and great grand dads that subscribe! Good on you for bot just ignoring the elderly Beanly, you are doing your part!

As someone who turned the dial to a classic rock station and heard linkin park. I think I aged 5 years from that experience.

1:57 Just coming to grasp that 2008 is older than I was at the time. I’m old. It seems like a few months ago, it was literally half my life.

I thought sleep token was dad rock now.

That’s was so true but after discovering Sophie Burrell on KZfaq my guitar and music journey changed She has inspired me so much both in my guitar and music journey Plini, periphery, etc And now BXRRELL 👍👍👍😎

these edits are incredibly hilarious :D

my dad showed me what metallica is, I guess when I'm a dad, I'm going to show my kids what Slaughter to Prevail is

Your the same age as the Rust In Peace album, do you think of Rust In Peace as an old school album?

in edm world time flies even faster I remember dubstep meems with dinosaurs with lazer canons and stuff in 2016

Get this guy a Heinz sponsorship deal, for the love of the Queen!

Slipknot, Slayer, early Periphery, etc. Is Dad Rock now.

I think it was more common to listen to modern music back then. Now , thanks to the internet we have a choice, and that's why genzs listening to the stuff from 70-80s today is more common thing than youngers who listened to the music in 2000s. So now we're, like, less conservative and "dad rock" itself is a bit outdated

Tier list for granddad rock pls

I miss your old stuff, not your stream short 😢. But I'll support what you do anyway!

My dad was born in 67 an I was born in 09 so the "dad rock" is still dad rock

Meanwhile Judas Priest: We have always been dad metal and we are still dad metal. But dad metal that fuckin' kicks ass! \m/

That comment hurt. My 40yo self is not in the future. . .

The term "Dad rock" first occured to me in the past three or five years. When I grew up and found my musical taste during the 90s and 2000s, this term was not used - at least not in northern Germany. We had the words "oldies" and "evergreens", which generally described music from the 60s and 70s or even earlier. When I have got my first computer with internet connection I vaulted into the depths of downloadable files and discovered hard rock and early heavy metal from the 70s. Today I do not listen to that as often as I did. I am currently rather listening to either modern music (from the past ten to twenty years) or obscure harcore and early extreme metal from the 80s. Yes, time flies, but I do not need a budget sampler CD from the supermarket to remind me of that. Thank you...

Is weid, it feels like in modern times music can be in two categories, the cheap viral hits that went super popular on tiktok but get old in few months right into oblivion, or music that never ages like Deftones. I'm sure that 20 years old music don't feel old in the same way that 80's felt aged in 2000's. Time flows different now, internet have the power to make things immortal or forgettable. 2000's still feels like a longer decade that isn't over yet.

I’m a teenager now but when I was a kid my dad listened to system of a down, slipknot, korn and now system of a down is my favourite band

That spotify playlist is my playlist…my god

Watching while eating makes my steak n eggs taste a bit like baked beans because of the background 😂

For someone who's 21 and has no kids, I'm rocking out with some dad, and I'm already working on my dad bod

I grew up listening to my father playing stuff like KISS, Alice Cooper, Sixx AM, and Gretta Van Fleet. Now I listen to Metallica, Slayer, ect. How the world evolves.

I'm bringing it back don't worry
