Given that rocket 88, usually considered the first rock song, wasn't written until 1951, that means rock was more popular when it didn't exist, than now... grim.

Roll ’Em Pete was from 1938 and still not considered the very first rock and roll song. (it clearly is)

what caused the bump in the late 30s?

Rock died cause "mainstream rock" was only post grunge for over a decade
Frankly it seems like they did it on purpose

Rock made itself redundant. If you can only have three chords and the lyrics can only be about women then there's already a gorillion 20th century songs to listen to. Who needs new music to repeat the old but worse?

Yup. White men under 25 have never heard rock music and only see guitars in museums

There's an entire genre called prog rock that got away from three chords and lyrics about girls and you know that

Imagine Dragons is the only rock band formed in the past 15 years that plays arenas. That tells you all you need to know about the current state of rock
