GOAT Dad Rock
Charles Foster
Samuel Sullivan
Nice one OP
Sebastian Peterson
Elton John, ELO, Steely Dan, Billy Joel
Andrew Hill
Boston [Epic, 1976]
When someone told me that a group had achieved an American synthesis of Yes and Led Zeppelin, all I could do was hold me ears and say "Gosh!" C
Don't Look Back [Epic, 1978]
Debut pomposities having been excised, what remains is a pure exploration of corporate rock--the cliches carefully selected for maximum effect, while Brad Delp's tenor being too thin for nasty cock-rock distractions leaves us free to contemplate unsullied form. The fact that I occasionally find myself enjoying it must still mean there's some corruption at work here--true formalists, from Mallarme to bluegrass, leave me cold. B-
Third Stage [MCA, 1986]
A decade later, whatever convinced Tom Scholz to release this album certainly wasn't multiplatinum ambition. He's more like the pope of latter-day arena rock, crafting elaborately-woven textures and magnificent cathedral vocals as a purveyor of an art-metal thought long extinct. Not as bad as you'd think, nor worth giving a second thought to. C+

Although it's incredibly dated to it's time period, I really like this album. Very nice proggy song writing while keeping a heavy edge and never getting too bloated or pretentious.
Charles Gomez
Based Scorpions
Henry Gutierrez
trips are right
Camden James

Eli Wood
>Sib Hashian
Goodnight sweet prince
Oliver Peterson
Easily one of my fav albums
Jaxon Wood
This desu
John Bennett
the best ITT
Jackson Evans
>Elton John, ELO, Steely Dan, Billy Joel
That's more like mom rock, not dad rock.
Carson Nelson
that's really funny, really true, but I still super duper love all those acts (steely dan is dadrock though)
I just really love good songwriting, and Billy Joel was occasionally brilliant at that, and Bernie Taupin is a beautiful poet. I don't even care about the music as much.
Brody Nguyen
Still sounds as fresh and mind blowingly bombastic as it did 39yrs ago.
Hudson Wilson
Step aside niggers
Hudson Mitchell
May not be to heavy but it's the goat

The future of das rock
Jason Hill
I personally like the Police and probably consider them to be the best New Wave band all of their albums are great
I'll second these guys. Though I prefer their condensed studio stuff to their jams
I wanted to hate this album, but some of the non radio played to death songs are amazing
Brody Turner
that's not even a rock album.
Jose Martinez
The Cars, Blondie, and the Talking Heads are pretty close, but The Police are right up there with the best New Wave bands for sure. Easily top 5.

Nigga what the fuck is wrong with you?
Eli Ortiz
low attention span. Closet poptimist. Sorry, but you have seven minutes until I want a change of song
Parker Anderson
Early Elton John was as much Dad Rock as Mom Rock...but bottom line...Its just great Rock and Roll. (coming from a Dad who bought the album when it was released and still has it and it plays perfectly still).
Owen Garcia
here you go
Angel Moore

Jaxson Rivera

if you're a fan of early Neil Young you may like this
Connor Carter
This record has a lot of tunes that I wouldn't consider any bit dad-rock. Come on, mate. Sultans of Swing doesn't make the whole album dad-rock.
Angel Butler
Greatest debut rock album.
Lincoln Parker
This x1000.
Henry Kelly

Ryder Torres
Why is this hack still alive?
Caleb Morgan
I still listen to this masterpiece today, I think it's even better than Toys in the Attic.
Asher Lee
most dadrock is objectively good music
>inb4 t. dad
Hunter Cruz
Aerosmith are bro-tier guys that had genuinely good compositional and songwriting skills, but they fucked themselves with drugs because Columbia put huge pressure on them to become rock stars when they never aspired to Rolling Stones status, they wanted instead to be a slightly under-the-water AOR band like Black Sabbath or Rush.
John Lee

Elijah Howard
>objectively good
nice meme
Easton Cruz
yep this is the objectively correct answer
just finished a steve miller 24 bit binge
best experience : listening to "the window" while moon rose on beach
Colton Evans
Literally anything by the Who (when Keith was alive, of course).
This guy gets it.
Eli Taylor
Essential momrock: Anything by Stevie Nicks, Heart, Pat Benetar, and any rock band that were considered more heartthrobs than bad boys back in the day, (ex.: The Beatles, George Michael etc.)
Caleb Sanders
Eric Clapton's one of my dad's favorite guitarists, so he naturally likes Cream. This is a good live album t b h.
Aiden James
They did proto-New Wave better than The Clash 2bh.
Landon Miller

I thought I liked dadrock since I mostly listen to 70's music but I hate most the stuff in this thread. Guess I have better taste then I thought.
