I was surfing around and up came a banner ad: "Remember how much time you spent in school learning about the isosceles triangle, didactic rock... etc?" I lost the ad in my haste to google the latter term, so I can't tell you any more about it. My search obtained a mere seven hits which led to only two ideas: didactic rock gardens and didactic rock music (!?).
Was the ad writer thinking of something else?

Well, I'm thinking "didactic rock" is some sort of geological term that someone got confused with something else.

Probably best applicable to bands that churn out albums year after year, each sounding exactly like its predecessor ... ?

thinking of something else? It could be a teachers sigh facing a class who seem unable to "dig it"  .
