Title says it all.
Piano rock is rock music that is centered on the piano, or piano-like instruments. Fray and Coldplay are examples of this.
I was wondering; does anyone know of any rock bands (famous or not) that have a piano in their music, without their music being centered on the piano? Just curious.

Karasu82 coldplay is about as rock as barry manilow... Dude, I'm not sure how you could have missed it, but rock is as illdefined as the gray area between right and wrong. To me, rock is anything that has a guitar, drums, and/or bass guitar. Now, whether or not it's good depends on the artist, but there is such a thing as crappy rock music. As for Coldplay, they're not hardcore, but they're still rock (piano rock, specifically). Like I said, Coldplay and the Fray are example of piano rock, which is rock music centered on the piano (which makes it hard to be hardcore).

You're definition of rock is completely incorrect.
I could correct it but the exact definition escapes me.
Anywho, Jazz and funk and all kinds of music of guitar, drums, and bass and are pretty clearly not rock.

Well, Queen has a piano in some of their songs, but it's not really a piano centered band. smile

Some Random White Kid Your definition of rock is completely incorrect. I could correct it but the exact definition escapes me. Anywho, Jazz and funk and all kinds of music of guitar, drums, and bass and are pretty clearly not rock. Right, because I'm going to waste time detailing everything I believe about the rock genre. I was being general. edit: And who's to say I was wrong? I've never heard of an actual definition of rock music. Would you mind telling me where you found your well of wisdom considering all that is rock?

I've seen a lot of examples that are bands of many genres who have piano oriented or centered songs. There are millions of those, but when I see your question, I think more of (Ache:Emelie). They're a 6-piece screamo band who make use of keys and violin in every song, but they are underlying elements and you have to listen to discern them. Maybe that's more what you were looking for?

Avenged sevenfold has some piano and keys in it, alot in almost easy, but you have to listen for it, and critcal acclaim has an organ intro.
