| {{Template}}'''Rockism''' is an ideology of [[popular music]] and [[rock criticism]], coined by [[Pete Wylie]] and used extensively in the [[United Kingdom|British]] music press from the early [[1980s]]. The fundamental tenet of rockism is that some forms of popular music, and some musical artists, are more [[authentic]] than others. More specifically, authentic popular music fits the [[rock and roll]] paradigm; it is made using the basic rock instrumentation of [[guitar]]s, [[bass guitar]]s and [[drums]], and fits the structures of a [[rock and roll]] song. | {{Template}}'''Rockism''' is an ideology of [[popular music]] and [[rock criticism]], coined by [[Pete Wylie]] and used extensively in the [[United Kingdom|British]] music press from the early [[1980s]].
