Huehuehue.

Hellion, Cycle Sluts From Hell, Show Ya, The Plasmatics, Chastain, though not an all girl band, is female fronted, Missdemeanor, for a few.

How much male glam metal are you familiar with out of curiosity?

 

[jgs123]

I like to think quite a bit. Let's see:
Poison
Motley Crue
Europe
Winger
Skid Row
Kiss(getting into their post makeup era quite a bit)
Twisted Sister
Quite Riot
Def leppard
Van Halen
Dokken
WhiteSnake
Warrant
list goes on.

Did lots a research

Forgive me if some of these may not actually be considered glam.

You've got a lot of the basics down.

I'd recommend, if you haven't gone for them already, W.A.S.P., Ratt, Kix, BulletBoys, Seduce, Tesla, Dangerous Toys, Danger Danger, Lizzy Borden, Icon, Hanoi Rocks, Ana Black, London, Firehouse, South Gang, Cinderella, Krank, Autograph, Stryper, L.A. Guns, Slaughter, Beau Nasty, Great White, Britny Fox, TNT, Jackyl, Steelheart, Extreme, and Nitro.

 

[jgs123]

Can't say I really like W.A.S.P. Must be an acquired taste.

I actually a song or two of most of the bands. Not familiar with Ana Black, South Gang, or, Krank though. I will definitely check those out.

DC Lacroix and Princess Pang come to mind. Your hair metal encyclopedia has arrived.

After some deep thought, Ariah and Jade are also worth a listen. Ariah is quite amazing, if you can find it. My top 2 female bands all time are already on your radar - Saraya and Phantom Blue. You won't likely top those.

Why are you mentioning heavy metal in a hair metal thread?

 

[Sleestaks]

Despite this thread's starting as a plea for female bands of the day, it has given me horrible flashbacks to the time around 1989-1991 when I was still clinging to hard rock/hair metal/glam/sleaze/whatever even as my tastes were moving on to either heavier metal or alternative stuff. Those last, desperate additions to my tape/cd collection are among the worst things ever recorded.

Such as:
Child's Play. Cry Wolf, Noisy Mama (yes this was a real band), Hurricane, Babylon A.D., Masi (ok they were tolerable and "God Promised a Paradise" is kind of a Headbangers Ball classic), Katmandu (featuring the Fastway singer who's now with Flogging Molly, I believe), Circus of Power, Smashed Gladys (female singer! also awful!), and the absolute nadir of music, the funk metal embarrassment known as KINGOFTHEHILL, whose single, "I Do U," is unparalleled in its heinousness. Imagine Kid Rock with a more aggressive form of ... whatever's wrong with him.

I will say, however, that thinking of Fastway reminded me of the Trick or Treat soundtrack, which did in fact kick ass. And Vain and Dirty Looks were two decent bands that can be safely recommended.

This guy's not kidding about Kingofthehill. They were putrid beyond putrid. McQueen Street and Roughhouse are up there with the all time garbage, as well. Can't say I agree on Babylon A.D., but you are spot on with the rest.

As for mentioning Dirty Looks...you win the internet. To listen to the album "Five Easy Pieces" is to truly live.

Chastain, though not an all girl band, is female fronted

Since when are Chastain considered Hair/Glam Metal?

Never said anything of the like. I was naming a bunch of female bands overall in that post. Rosy Vista are great by the way.

My goodness. You have stumped the master. Not sure how this band ever escaped me, but it is...exquisite. Thanks. Thanks, indeed.
