I said "I give them credit" in the sense that it is my own personal perception. I probably am wrong. But my perception is that there is a higher percentage of Britains who take pride in being fans of rock then the percentage of North Americans who do the same.

I do not feel that rock is dead in NA, even though that is what I may have implied by "I will credit the UK with keeping Rock" but it does not have the place in the hearts of the average NAmerican that it used to.

Meh...all this talk of genres has made me nauseas.  I fear that we're about to walk into the revolving door of genre definitions and that we'll never make it out alive.  I'll just say this....rock is dead.  Whatever rock used to be doesn't exist anymore. 

And the Britons do enough distraction away from that genre as well....techno/rave anyone?

Personally I'm a little fed up with the Metal/Punk scene in my local area.  It's almost like you have to wear your testicles around your neck to get people not to laugh at you...either that or cut yourself.
