Glam bands that are considered metal

[vgmaster9]

What are different glam metal bands out there that you would consider actually metal? I'm talking about bands that have the sound of traditional metal, but with the use of poppy lyrics.

Define "poppy lyrics".

Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, Def Leppard, and W.A.S.P. were pretty metal in their early days.

When was WASP not "pretty metal"? Some of Blackie's rehashing of The Crimson Idol went too far into ballad land, but otherwise...

Pantera - Power metal

Give this a try.
