The rules for Rock music are now so firmly cast that it's now almost impossible for it to move on. The only way to progress is through cross-genre collaboration between musicians, a breaking down of the audience/performer split, a turning away from personality cults, etc. All the things that've been going on outside of Rock music (as it tends to be thought of) for years now.
A new path of rockism needs to be forged that places bands like Amon Duul I, Radiohead, Sonic Youth (in their SYR mode) and NNCK at the very core rather than as some kind of alternative route. Only then can the jams well and truly be kicked out.
