Springsteen does a live “Dancing in the Dark” that’s all guitars and no keebs, and that’s as close to butt rock as The Boss gets.
There’s a whole other world of Hot New Country songs that are really Hot New Butt Rock.

Like you have Butt Rock, then you have Butt Rock: The Next Generation -- which is that nickelback stuff, and then you have like, Butt Rock: Deep Space 9 which is country like "Boot Scootin' Boogie" and "Friends in Low Places" -- the latter of which might be a bit verbose to be butt, but there is a pervasive butt spirit to the song

Is there indie butt rock? Or would that be a category error?

the indie negates the butt; there is definitely indie rock with butt inspirations, but it would require like, whatever the musical equivalent of those silicone implants are, in order to be buttrock.

Cock Rock is more about blatantly trying to get laid, while Butt Rock is more about partying and just having fun in general.

also with cock rock, the emphasis is often on not having to try very hard to get laid.

"music that buttrock audiences like" but is not buttrock

Like bohemian rhapsody is something they'd listen to when sober and tapping into their arty side. True butt rock is what they switch to when they're on their buddy's pontoon boat and on their 20th natty light
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Sunday, 9 February 2020 22:50 (four years ago) link
“Bohemian Rhapsody” is a suite with one Butt Rock movement (iii.).
On the indie side, The Hold Steady, like Springsteen and Mellencamp, nods to Butt Rock, just as their audiences do.

i'm actually testing this by going on the youtube pages of all these songs and just writing "butt rock" and seeing which one has the fans that get the most angry. those, my friend, are the butt rock songs.
Ask the angry fans if they subscribe to reception or auteur butt-rock theory.
― dad genes (morrisp), Sunday, 9 February 2020 23:14 (four years ago) link

I would argue that the artist's refusal to allow the song's use in a car commercial is a sign it is not butt rock. I guess ultimately I subscribe to the auteur theory of butt rock.
Also worth noting that J.Lo used the song in her Super Bowl performance (with the artist's permission) to call attention to the US's neglect of Puerto Rico. I can't see "Hot Blooded" being put to the same use.

well, considering the lyrics to "Hot Blooded" seem totally irrelevant in that regard, I agree, I can't see it being put to the same use
I mean:
Well, I'm hot blooded, check it and seeI got a fever of a hundred and threeCome on baby, do you do more than dance?I'm hot blooded, I'm hot bloodedYou don't have to read my mind, to know what I have in mindHoney you oughta knowNow you move so fine, let me lay it on the lineI wanna know what you're doin' after the showNow it's up to you, we can make a secret rendezvousJust me and you, I'll show you lovin' like you never knewThat's why, I'm hot blooded, check it and seeI feel a fever burning inside meCome on baby, do you do more than dance?I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded (I'm hot)Now it's up to you, can we make a secret rendezvous? ohBefore we do, you have to get away from you…

i mean, you can see it as opposite to illustrating the US relationship to Puerto Rico, as Hot Blooded is about wanting to be fucked, and the US has already seriously fucked Puerto Rico.
