Do not marginalize glam metal or so called "hair metal" or "pop metal" or whatever you want to call it, do not do it, it had great music and history has lied to you

in the early to mid 80s there was some nice glam bands, but the quality declined rapidly

Okay but you're wrong? Nice song though.

are New York dolls considered glam
They're glam rock of the NYC variety, not the UK variety. An influence on glam metal, but not part of it themselves.
there were good bands and good songs, but as i see it there was a lack of originality, glam rock of the 70s was more diverse, albums started having a lot of filler songs (partly due to cd time length), some bad bands like poison had success, too many drugs involved, it stopped being about the music at some point. But yeah history has lied about glam, and replaced it with subpar bands and subpar musicians in the 90s

based spiderman poster, even if it's the remaster
Oh yeah, sure, but I think there is a huge difference between what was the glam rock of the 70's which was more related to punk and power pop and other things depending on what you're talking about and the "glam metal" of the 80's being the more the stuff that took influence from all that along with the metal and hard rock stuff in a kind of concentrated "Van Halen format". But yeah sure, I do disagree about Poison though....they were the band they were meant to be I think, poppy as fuck, but they were fun and encapsulated the party vibe of the 80's

I mean is there anything wrong with this other than the fact that it's the lilly whitest boys possible prancing around talking about having fun? It's kinda gay, but sometimes you gotta get kinda gay.

I love the genre
Growing up in suburban New Jersey in the 1980s this music was everywhere.
Poison was based
Twisted Sister in entirely underrated, non metalheads think they're just typical generic macho nonsense that would offend every one of their senses, metaheads think they are a one or two hit wonder and not anything else (because those so called metalheads are morons especially on this website)
Excellent point. They are a great band but they jumped the shark on Come out and Play
Fuck yes
shill thread yet again
Hyper commercialized metal for girls and retards
Black metal sucks nerd, when you grow up you'll realize you don't even fit in with the metal crowd, cut your hair, and become a fan of shoe gays

Fuck off retarded underage faggot.
Black metal sucks and you don't know metal period. I bet you don't own a single vinyl, poseur.
I'm in my 30's, Motley Crue is more metal than Burzum could ever be faggot. Take your wanna be goth shit and shove it up your faggot ass, you don't even drink beers or fuck women.
Revealed the bait a bit too soon there, guy.
Maybe next time?
I'm serious. Black metal is for virgins who play WoW, faggot.
