(Prog Rock for short)
A genre of music (60's to current) who's heyday occurred in the 1970's. Known for blending various genres (most commonly jazz and classical) into Rock music, the genre "progresses" music to try to evolve it into something more engaging than simply something to dance or sing-a-long or jam to.
While arguable, the first Prog band is technically believed by Prog fans to be the Beatles. However, the first band to play in the current sense of the word was King Crimson.
Although most bands in the genre came from the UK, many came from the US (Frank Zappa / Dream Theatre), Canada (Rush), Germany (Van Der Graaf Generator), and more (Iceland - Sigur Ros).
Prog Rock and Metal are both considered to be "guy" bands, and contrary to popular belief, they are not meant to be listened to alone, rather it's just hard to find another prog fan near you these days.
Only 20 minutes long? Woah, that's one short Progressive Rock song...

1. An oxymoron.
2. A genre of music created by teens who wanted to play rock n' roll and still be considered good kids. Urged on by churches, parents, and the man, this genre has grown in recent years. The title, Christian Rock is false for the fact that rock is made up of drugs, sex, and rock n' roll, while the actual music contains little or none of these. Christian Rock tends to contained watered down and weak instrumentals, centering around lyrics. Comparable to soft rock. With few exceptions, such as Switchfoot and POD, Christian Rock has been and always will be a weak, lame stepchild of Rock. This is a shame because Christian music could be great, and yet it is crap. For any people who love true rock such as myself, and have good taste in music will not even listen to this weak crap. Being Christian doesn't mean you have to listen to that worthless shit.
Bob:Hi! Do you like Christian Rock!
Dave:No I listen to good bands like Led Zeppelin and AC/DC.
Bob: Thousand Foot Crutch is the best!
Dave: Eat me.

Nate is from Africa and so was Simba, therefore Nate has been to pride rock.

Everyone in Glen Rock is insanely hott and fun. They are hilarious and aren't all snobby or pretend or anything. The schools are awesome and it's an awesome hang-out town! We've got awesome stores and everyone knows each other. There are no secrets in Glen Rock. If you have one, don't tell it. There aren't any bad people except for the ones who come from Paterson at night. We have 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, combined with a high school. We have a really good faculty and the academics are very good as well as fun. The sports are awesome too.
Ridgewood kid: "wow this town has real people not fakes like Ridgewood."
Glen Rock kid: "that's how we do it here in Glen Rock. We're so awesome we don't need to pretend that we are."

The kind of music you listen to only because your girlfriend (or any girl(s) you like) does. When your macho friends flip through your record collection and quizzically ask why you have this winsome indie-pop record mixed in with your slovenly punk or your metal or whatever else you bro down to with your dude friends, "girlfriend rock" is the excuse you give. If they continue to make fun of you, ask them why they never get any? Or do they really enjoy jugga-lette hookups that much?
Dude 1: "What are these doing in your glove box...Blank Dogs? Belle and Sebastian???"
Dude 2: "Oh, that's what my girlfriend likes to listen to."
Dude 1: "You don't actually like this shit, do you?"
Dude 2: "Actually...for girlfriend rock, you can do a lot worse. Have you heard Real Estate?"

OK hard ass from north philly, you couldnt be more wrong. First of all, our school has been open for only four years, thats the number after three in case your stupid ass cant count, and we have won close to 20 league titles between our sports teams, and 5, count them, 5 state championships. Now let me do a little bit of math for your stupid north philly ass, thats about 5 league titles a year, and AT LEAST one state champ a year. Come down here to Council Rock, and who knows you may beat our asses up, after we fuck you up in a sporting event.
Dumbass just jealous of his shitty ass sports teams... WE ARE FUCKING C-R
dont hate council rock just because you can't beat us
