I was searching online for a thorough definition of "art rock" and could not come up with anything I LIKED, so I decided to propose my own definition: Art Rock is a sub-genre of Rock-and-roll music that originated with the hippy culture of the late 1960s and reached its peak in the 1970s with bands like Genesis, Pink Floyd, and Yes. Art Rock generally incorporates other forms of music such as jazz, and seeks to create a mood (which is better for listening than for dancing).
