Glam/Hair metal in Australia

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Anybody know of any glam/hair metal bands in Australia at the moment? I've seen flyers for one, but that's all.

There doesn't seem to be any really now since the days of Candy Harlots, Roxus and the like.

Also I think there should be some glam metal nights at clubs every now and then in Melbourne

Shit do you like glam, Trent? I never would have guessed.

I actually do believe it or not! I mean the Motley Crue avatar, the Ratt "Status" line thing under my nick, the Vinnie Vincent Invasion quote in my signature, they kind of gave away my secret I think. I should be more careful hehe.

If anyone knows (apart from you) it would be Xena. During the late 80s - early 90s there were dozens; now that Cyclone Tracy has split up, I don't think there's any.

There's one in Melbourne called The Redresser but I have no idea what they are like. I've just seen flyers in Metal Mayhem, the singer has big blonde hair and its says "GLAM ROCK!" really big on it haha.

There ain't anything really left that would fit into the genre we love.There are all the old members of bands who in their aging years are doing rock orientated stuff.But alas no glam as such really left...here in Sydney we have Nobody's Fool(covers and a couple of originals) one other I can't remember the name of. Apart from that nothing I really no off.

 

[Winmar]

Fuck is that Motley Crue, Trent?! Jeesus!!

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Yep yep Back in their shock rockin' Shout At The Devil era. The best period of the band by far imo hehe.

There was a glam band in Perth last year that opened for Black Steel... they were called Firefox. They wore tight leather pants, had big hair and even had their own homemade pyro on stage.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

I want to see them!!!!

One of the most popular pages on my website in the Roxus page. I don't know if I should be proud, or afraid.

I know I've looked up all the hair bands on your website! I would've looked at the Roxus one a couple of times.

There was a band called Cyclone Tracy?

 

[mattt]

indeed. go here for more info: http://ozmetalguide.metalofoz.com/c/cyclone_tracy.htm

the guitarist, Stevie, is now in Black Majesty.

There was a band from Perth called Hurricane Mary too. That would have been an interesting double bill! Actually, CT were pretty cool until they decided they wanted to be a nu-metal band.

Interesting name... especialy with everything one hears about Cyclone Tracy (the cyclone) living in Darwin.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Far out this was an old thread to be dug up!

 

[Icarus]

There is a band here called Scarlet which used to be called Nitemare which are cool

Singer wears a t shirt on stage that says "We are glam so fuck you"

One of the most popular pages on my website in the Roxus page. I don't know if I should be proud, or afraid.

their keyboard player Andy helped out with the mastering and duplication (this was 1998, before many people had cd burners) of Titanium's first CD.

He's a top bloke. :Spin:
