Production Career
Rock is perhaps best known as a producer for bands such as Metallica and Mötley Crüe. He has also worked with Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Cher, The Cult, David Lee Roth, Skid Row, Veruca Salt, Nina Gordon, The Offspring, 311, Our Lady Peace, The Tragically Hip, The Tea Party, Lostprophets, American Hi-Fi, Simple Plan and Nelly Furtado.
Rock briefly returned to performing, forming the band Rockhead with ex-Payola$ drummer Chris Taylor. The band released one self-titled album and two singles before splitting up.
Rock produced the five finalist songs of CBC Sports's Hockey Night in Canada Anthem Challenge in late 2008. He became involved with a controversy having worked with Gerry Mosby one of the semi-finalists thus violating CBC rules on the Anthem Challenge.
