I've been trying to develop and accurate and concise treatise defining exactly what Buttrock is, but it's been tricky. What makes Creed undeniable buttrock, but The Calling deniable buttrock?
Also Alex Band used to be cuter'n bunny dicks ^_^
I made the "buttrock" association instead through noticing that pretty much every one of these bands plays with what sounds like clenched jaws.
"WTH AHMS WIDE OHHPN"
>>65966831
Maybe the fact that the Creed singer tries to sound like Eddie Vedder
>>65965482
Oh God I'm pretty sure I have this song fucking memorized at this point.
>LEAVE LA BLEEDEHN IN MAH HANDS IN MAH HANDS AGHEEEEEEEEN
>>65966730
That's not good though.
>>65966782
Deftones is definitely not buttrock.
>>65966779
Heck, Bullet With Butterfly Wings is even the first suggestion in the related videos.
>>65966910
i get nostaligia feels from that song because as a young teenaged boy, when this song was popular, i had the worst gaycrush on a blonde haired blue-eyed boy and this singer always remound me of him so i always think of him when i hear it ;_;
>>65966831
If you can imagine what a middle American listens to in his pickup on the way home after his shift at the auto shop, drunk and mad at his wife, or drunk and on his way to go fishin' with his buddies, that's what buttrock is.

That's literally what Kid Rock is and he's been carrying the buttrock torch since the 90s.
So basically if it sounds like a song Kid Rock could do, it's buttrock.

it's funny realizing that most of these bands were in one way or another influenced by 90's metallica

Wow, Deftones just kept getting randomly covered by buttrock magazines, so random!!!
These make me so nostalgic ;_:

fuark that was a short-lived genre. a quickly stifled spark in the darkness, a flicker on the horizon. beautiful.
Deftones only kinda coasted along the buttrock line during the late 90s and early 2000s. By the mid 2000s they'd pretty much dropped off of it completely.

deftones is the only band that i know of that successfully captured that 1997-2001 feeling of total hedonism and apathy at the same time where you could just get away with everything.
it wasn't a tryhard school shooter edgelord deal, it was way more restrained, like you and the small clique of friends smoking after class and mostly worrying about who you were going to fuck at parties and who was going to get the fake ID to buy a keg from the corner store
i wonder if my description makes any sense
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-YVTfxUlU4

i don't think there will ever be the same kind of detachment again in pop culture, everything now is always through this lens of irony, no one actually means it when they say "who cares let's get fucked up" anymore.

>(classic pixies' quiet-loud-quiet , now-distorted, formula)

>the end: the root key of the song fading into oblivion
>>65968588
>>65968873
Maybe, but the Fray just always kinda lacked that whole overly macho, douchey buttrock attitude; they were a lot softer and way more subdued. Kinda the same reason why you can't really classify Foo Fighters as buttrock.
>>65968904
I kinda like Chevelle desu
>>65968944
you forgot how the quiet part usually has a bass line that literally sounds like a fart, which is where the genre famously got it's name
>>65968978
genuinely laughed about that
>>65968944
>tfw I just described One Last Breath without even noticing
>>65968965
post-2003 buttrock stopped including overly macho to include gay shit too, that's why we consider hoobastank's "the reason" to be buttrock when it's completely gay compared to something by godsmack for instance. it's all about "i get laid a lot so i get to act like a faggot" which came to about in the late 90's but only got really famous in the early 2000's
>>65968965
the fray are like soft butt rock, like butt contemporary
>>65968944
We should autistically come up with a new formula like this and try to make it big somehow.
>>65969031
I disagree, the typical buttrock attitude continued well into the 2000s with bands like Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace.
>>65969076
of course that tradition continued, and still continues to this day, one thing doesn't invalidate the other.
the first thing that comes to you when you think about "the reason" is immediately buttrock, and there's good reason for it. imo the fray is buttrock too.
>>65968944
i tend to look at it this way:
above almost anything a buttrock song is a deception. it's just an angsty pussy pop song - one that would could be played, and possibly sound better, on a piano with a cutter chick or sad emo singing. but, to make it socially acceptible and ok for guys to listen to it, it's produced with injections of synthetic testosterone. heavy riffs ripped from old metal songs, hair band embellishments and flair, "industrial" metal vocal effects and production, slick reverbs and huge drums.
but in the end, it's still just a pop song formula, and a bitchy whiney one at best. BUT in order to sell it - the lyrics and singer have to be absolutely SEVERE. like the problem that THIS SONG RIGHT NOW is about is the WORST most serious problem ever and imagineable. you can't be real buttrock unless you take yourselves and your problems so seriously that you punch holes in the hotel walls on tour and brood deeply while groupies watch from a distance.
you think too much, you worry too much, you have extraordinary problems but unrivaled musical talent to express it, and god damn it you are fucking masculine as fuck.

Ah, Lifehouse, aka the John Mayer Band.
Buttrock formula 1.1:
Intro:
>generic fingerpicking riff probably in a flat, minor tuning
>singer emulating Eddie Vedder with lyrics about basic first world dissatisfactions
>small drum roll
Verse:
>same thing as the intro, but with a "bass line that literally sounds like a fart, which is where the genre famously got it's name", as >>65968978 noted
>(classic pixies' quiet-loud-quiet , now-distorted, formula)
>small semi-second of guitar dissonance right before the chorus
Chorus:
>same chord progression from the intro, now in power chords; distorted enough to sound edgy, however, not too distorted enough to actually challenge anything
>singer sing in an octave higher to simulate emotion
>quiet again
>chorus again
Bridge:
>the peak of the lead singer's dissatisfaction
>an actually new chord progression made in order to build tension
>then we are back to the chorus
>quiet
>chorus x2
>the end: the root key of the song fading into oblivion
>>65969126
perfect
>>65965462
Cuz Pearl Jam sold a shit ton of records.
>>65969184
pretty good, someone should show this to /prod/ and see if they can come up with the same shit but in electronic
>>65965069
this is unironically a good song
>>65965623
>>65965668
Yeah this is a 90s alt rock one hit wonder classic. In a different category than buttrock altogether.
>>65968944
>>65969184
Someone wanna explain what the fuck a "flat, minor tuning is"? Do you mean key?
>>65969298
probably in Eb minor, or Db minor, what I meant is that it's rarely in a natural, or the standard key
maybe flat keys make the song "sadder"
Guilty Pleasure: Half of these shits ain't that bad desu
>>65966403
Good god. What was going on culturally to produce this?
>>65965160
the more I listen to this buttrock post-grunge bullshit the more I realize that it may actually secretly have fucking genius songwriting behind it that could be transformed into something greater
holy fuck somebody needs to capitalize on this shit and spin it in a new light
>>65966465
This song has a so good it's bad/nostalgia vibe for me. The singer's gesticulations are hilarious.
>>65969404
buttrock music/songs/artists are not buttrock because they're bad. they could kick ass and have tons of talent, but they're fake. it's the deception of the genre that devalues it completely. no fucking real or venerable artist has gone into or come out of buttrock.
>>65969126
>>65969344
I was just trying to point out that a tuning is not the same thing as a key.
there is another thing that makes me actually mad about buttrock classics: the production
it sounds like it was made to alienate the masses, I know that sounds edgy as fuck, but something about how the instruments sound, it's like it was made to sell (obviously), but I still can't figure it out what exactly makes buttrock so commercial when it comes to sound.
I mean, the vocalist tries to emulate Eddie Vedder, the guitars are distorted enough to be rebellious and create some sort of pseudo-liberation of the masses, but not distorted enough to revolutionize, the bass sounds like a fart, but I can't figure it out how to describre buttrock drumming
>>65967798
Sounds like someone is jealous
>>65969487
when it comes to buttrock production we can look straight to Metallica's Black Album for inspiration. like most great footnotes in musical history, it spawned and inspired a metric shitton of bad music. hundreds of tracks, double tracks, digital editing; piecing together a recording that the band could never accomplish on stage without backing tracks, layers and layers of fx, 35 microphones on the drum kit, etc.
but yes, the details in the production æsthetic are disctinct for sure, be elusive to really define
>>65967061

The reason it sounds almost-good is because it's just a heavily watered down version of actual grunge music. That song in particular is literally just a boring rendition of Heart Shaped Box.

I can imagine some fratboy douche pull up in his fartcan-equipped Subaru WRX walking up to me and offering me a drink that is obviously not laced with any date-rape drugs. Of course, this song is blasting from his car's speakers.
>>65969625
Agreed.

This thread brings two thoughts to my mind
This really gives you a sense of the context in which the garage rock revival was so exciting. Make fun of The Strokes for being posers or whatever, but holy shit what a breath of fresh air and reclamation of what rock and roll could be (along with The White Stripes of course).
Part of the reason rock has shrunk in popularity over the past decade (if it has, which is somewhat debatable) is that rock with the prominence of indie reacted against butt rock by largely pushing it out of the genre at which point it became...country. The likes of Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton have taken the essence of what made the genre marketable, watered it down, and added a fiddle. Florida Georgia Line actually covered Last Resort at one of their concerts recently. Just like the Eagles and Tom Petty were more absorbed by country than by the rock mainstream in the 90s.

Oasis does not at all belong here. Categorically better than any band on here.
>>65970266
oh god i hated my tool fan classmates. fucking assholes

I was so fucking happy to hear Keane and Kasabian in the midst of all this horror. Especially growing-up outside a secondary city with only one redneck rock station... ho-ly fuck the late 90s-early 00s was a rough time. Thie era put me off commercial FM radio so bad I haven't listened to it since.
>>65970270
That's a silly thing to say, desu.
>>65970291

have you guys noticed that family problems are a major theme in buttrock? you know white trash families hitting each other on their porches/yards until the cops come? there are so many buttrock songs describing that situation
>>65970302
Same for me. Things that now seem a little bland or oh so 2000s like Death Cab for Cutie, The Killers, or The Shins were world changing for me after thinking rock was defined by Three Days Grace and all the good stuff died in the 70s.
>>65970302
bloc party was where it was at. also artic monkeys made me so happy for a short while
>>65970332
oh god yes. now they just kinda wear simple t-shirts but necklaces with crucifixes for some reason
>>65970385
That's why Eminem was so huge too. He talked about those themes and appealed to that audience. Years after his prime he's still huge with that audience. He also literally sampled "Dream On."

Maynard's singing saves this song desu. It's still really edgy, but honestly what would you expect.
>>65970386

Silent Alarm is dated but still great. Like Eating Glass hits me in the fucking gut sometimes.
>And I know that you're busy too, I know that you care
You got your finger on the pulse, you got your eyes everywhere
And it hurts all the time when you don't return my calls
And you haven't got the time to remember how it was
damn
>>65964953
