Favorite Glam Bands

[King Richard]

Well, when I was a kid my father and I used to love glam bands. And I know there's a few here that like some of them. So vote for your favorite 3.

 

[Psychonaut]

Ratt
Dokken
TNT

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Skid Row if that counts, Motley Crue and of course Bon Jovi (if that counts)

I was a complete fag and didn't read the part where I was supposed to pick three. Fuck.

Had I followed the rules, it would have been Motley Crue, Winger, and Ratt, in that order.

Is it okay if I vote for only Van Halen? I haven't really listened to much of the others, but I'm pretty sure Van Halen rapes them all.

 

[King Richard]

Sure I don't care.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Awesome.

Btw, why isn't Europe up there? I'd totally vote for that shit.

 

[King Richard]

Sadly I only had 20 slots to fill and as most of us know theres a shit ton of bands I had to leave off. Nature of the beast it seems.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

You've got a heart of stone...

 

[The Ozzman]

Skid Row is the only hair band worth anything

Van Halen isn't a hair band, but they kick some major fucking ass

Well hair metal didn't really exist when they got started. But they were still one of the biggest influences on the genre (if not the biggest?).

Well, I'll concede to that, but I would still consider them hard rock rather than glam

 

[zabu of nΩd]

I dunno - all that slick production, the vocal harmonies, the synths... they sound pretty glammy to me.

 

[Thoth-Amon]

from this list i chose:
the crue
van halen
um...
shit who was the other one...
oh yeah def leppard

 

[forbidden fruit]

Slave To The E.L.E.C.T.R.I.C G.Y.P.S.Y Machine

 

[Zephyrus]

Van Halen

I don't like Glam.

 

[rattlematt]

Motley Crue, Skid Row and WASP for me.

 

[Nehebkau]

Is W.A.S.P. really glam? I thought they were just heavy/traditional metal :S

 

[SouthernTrendkill]

I love Van Halen but don't consider them glam metal. Also on the fringe would be Guns N Roses whom I totally love. Honorable mention... PanterA of course.

So glam is considered metal, then? 'Cause I always assumed it wasn't considered metal.
