I’ll admit, I love me some Rock with my Country.  This made me re-think things a bit.

When I say “Dad Rock”, who comes to mind?  Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath?  Motley Crue and Iron Maiden?  Pearl Jam and Nirvana?

Sure . . . but how about My Chemical Romance and Linkin Park?  (???)

Some kid made a video saying that those bands are indeed Dad Rock now.  And so are acts like:

System of a DownAvenged SevenfoldThree Days GraceDeftonesMuseSlipknotBullet for My ValentineSkilletFall Out Boy, and Sum 41.

Interesting and possibly ironic note:  The kid who made the video was wearing a Metallica shirt.

So . . . did this kid hit the mark, or is it too early to call these bands Dad Rock?  Discuss.
