grebo

Definition

A working-class British rock enthusiast, particularly from the Midlands, who dresses and acts like they're perpetually auditioning for a heavy metal music video. The term briefly had a moment in the late 80s UK music press before being mercifully retired, though it still persists in certain regional circles as shorthand for "rocks way harder than your indie playlist ever could."

Example Usage

That grebo at the pub won't stop talking about Black Sabbath and his vintage leather jacket.
