Rock Album Survivor
The Metal Album Survivor thread has been a success, so why not just a general thread for rock itself? Obviously this would be a far more extensive venture, and cover a lot of genres which I have little to no familiarity with, so there would have to be a lot more participation from all of you as to what genres and albums to include, so comments are not just appreciated, but necessary.
And metal will not be included. Not because it doesn't deserve to be, but there's already a thread for that, so whatever album ends up winning that thread can be used whenever this thread comes to a final stage.
These are the genres that I've come up with in five minutes, so it is in no way complete. This is just spit balling.
Punk
Hardcore
Post-hardcore
Noise rock
Power pop
Prog rock
AOR
Hard rock
Southern rock
Industrial rock
Grunge
Garage rock
Proto-punk
Arena rock
Glam rock
Pop
New wave
Folk rock
Brit pop
College rock
Crust punk
Shoegaze
Blues rock
Stoner rock
Goth rock
Indie rock
Indie pop
Krautrock
Post-rock
Ska
Soft rock
Space rock
Synth pop
Psychedelic rock
