Just checked, the first Foo Fighters record and the first Slipknot studio albums are only 4 years apart (1995 and 1999). David Bowie started putting out records in 1967, and published his 19th album the year the Foo Fighters debut came out. Bowie already was dad rock when Dave Grohl was still playing for Nirvana and recorded a Bowie cover with them.
Not posting this to rib on you, i just find it interesting how there's this sliding cutoff for when things become dad rock and how much it changes how bands are perceived.

This means it will eat indie pop like Franz Ferdinand next.
You take that back.
