is this some kind of a consolation prize/tard cookie we're handing out to frat homos now? greek organizations are fucking pathetic and have nothing to do with soul music. this should be unlisted.
how can this possibly be a genre? Im part of a frat, we all love different music althouh my own tastes vary from screamo to hip hop to psy trance to classic rock some of the guys like jam bands, some of the guys like crust punk and everyone loves the hip hop and hard rock during the parties but even with all this isnt the stereotypical sort of music for frat guys to listen to be incubus, dave matthews, that sort of stuff? this whole genre is just some made up, theres no merit in this article. - Anonymous Brother, AEPi
This has got to be made-up. I'm sorry, but this is all crap. The Sonics? They're not "frat rock." It's not really even open to discussion. At least cite some other guy making up this BS genre instead of creating it out of nowhere. It doesn't even make sense and it seems like lots of other articles would contradict this, seeing as half these bands are 60s garage or psychedelic pop bands. I'm proposing this article for deletion. --Jawamachines 22:32, 22 February 2007 (UTC)+
I don't understand the outrage, this isn't some cruel joke. Back in the 60's, frats would often book live bands that played a certain simple loud style of rock n roll that was labled frat rock. Many well known artists of the mid 60's started out in this fashion. It's not a "BS" genre at all and it refers to the "frat" music of like 40+ years ago, not today.

- pnt. the outrage, greg, comes, i think, from having to listen to numetal and hip hop at parties
