It implies that rock music, or perhaps any genre, is not just about the music itself but also about the way the musicians present themselves visually. Therefore, to fully embrace and appreciate rock music, individuals should conform to the associated fashion trends, as it enhances the overall experience and identity of the genre.

Having experienced applied socialism in a country where the alternative has been realized, I certainly will not speak for it.
