I think maybe to do with the rebellion aspect of Rock. It has sounds that emulate machines and is electrified. The whole "rock" experience gives the feeling of rebellion/empowerment - "power chords". Perfect for teen angst.
Not that other genres don't also have angst, just not put out there in such a sparkly electrified package.
