His definition of rock includes rap so it's very broad.

Rock is everything but jazz and classical you nematode
Hip hop is basically industrial music with beat poetry.

I didn't imply that, I was just clearing things up so that other anon didn't have an autism-attack.

He gave the same rating to Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom and Faust S/T

To Scaruffi, rock means everything that doesn't fit established jazz or classical standards. Which is ridiculous because jazz is closer to actual rock than most of the shit he calls rock.

Can we just talk about how good HOoM is?
Favourite track: Have One on Me
Underrated: Kingfisher
favourite lyrics: I may have changed, it's hard to gauge
Time won't account for how I've aged
Would I could tie your lying tongue
Who says that leaving keeps you young

I think it has less to do with sound and more what certain groups of critics tend to review.
>>66356645
Probably something that's purposely off-key, poorly produced and played.
>>66357249
Jazz came before Rock and many (if not all) of the genres in the "Rock" category have influences from rock
>>66357286
HooM is literally none of those things

>purposely off-key
If it's for musical effect, there's nothing wrong with this
>poorly produced and played
>HOOM, Bricolage, The Downward Spiral, MNLWND, etc. is poorly produced and played
