I miss real rock stars
they look pretty gay
Hair metal was exceptionally fruity and supremely uncool.
Britpop mixed the best of both worlds in that its stars maintained the dressed down, street-level appearances common in alternative rock while actually enjoying the lifestyles rockstardom provided them with(unlike mopey American autists like Pearl Jam or Nine Inch Nails or whoever).
their hair looks so unwashed its disgusting, i bet they had maggot issues at some point.
Real rockstars are disgusting too, they fuck 13 year old girls and sing songs about trucks and drugs and alcohol and some boring events from their boring lives full of drugs and delusions, and then they fuck more 13 year olds,
>Hair metal was exceptionally fruity and supremely uncool.
Gn'R was never "hair metal" to begin with so strike 1 as you know nothing about the genre you're trying to be an expert on, let alone the band being discussed who you're wrongly classifying.
>Britpop mixed the best of both worlds in that its stars maintained the dressed down, street-level appearances common in alternative rock while actually enjoying the lifestyles
Yes, and they only appealed to British people...I'll give credit where it's due they were more rockstars than (most) of the grungetards but all they did was rip the Beatles, had no edge in their music, and only appealed to the dry sardonic British sensibility, not the wild free American sensibility.
You listen to teen girls who never lived in a house that didn't cost a million dollars, the music you like is not interesting.
no, i don't listen to this user. stop making assumptions about me, i listen exclusively to japanese heavy psych and 1950s-1960s american country.
>"real rock stars"
>posts GnR instead of Van Halen
David Lee Roth was peak male performance
That's pretty autistic.
I don't see the point of this post, Rose picked up where Roth left off with the rock stardom, only while being an angry cocksucker with more of a punk edge while he was at it.

Imagine growing up in the 70's, 80's, or early 90's when you were coming of age where tons of people felt the same way you did...you would have had such a good time.
Anyone who says Guns were "hair metal" is a moron.

it's okay if you don't get it, zoomie. In the 80s people really thought glam metal is alpha. It became cheesy when it turned into a parody of itself.

Too bad Vince Neil killed their drummer... it was a tragedy. Probably the best Heroin Hair Metal band ever.
Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks
They haven't gone anywhere
I appreciate all the eras/genres of Rock to an extent but I wholly agree with this. Oasis embodied a nearly perfect approach to being both "rockstars" as well as artists. They dressed casual, but cool, and didn't give a fuck. They knew how to party and live the lavish rock and roll lifestyle without being overly gaudy about it. Also, they had some of the best songs of the 90s
James WAS a close second
BULLSHIT, oasis made uniintelligent and superficial music that sadly got influential, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Stone Roses, Slowdive and Ride over any shitty "bripop" act that came after them, even hair metal was more interesting than those shitty ballads, they fucked music.
Oasis were just some overglorified Beatles cosplayers

Well, to be fair, they were glamming it up pretty hard, right up to just before Appetite came out - there's plenty of pictures of them in full Strip makeup and teased hair, but that's what the Strip was - everyone doing the same things, to get signed. Then, it seems like overnight they were all wearing Harley t-shirts, Axl was doing the bandana, and a couple months later, everyone looked like GnR. Bands like Warrant and Poison went from fucking spangles and makeup to leather jackets and tattoos, following Guns.
And yes, I saw GnR in the clubs. They were better there, stadium GnR sucks. Not as great as Metallica, Megadeth, and Exodus in small clubs and theaters, but good.
why did these 80s rock bands dress like chicks, it looks weird af now
So what? They didn't care, they cared what the girls thought, and they thought they looked good. And all of them, with the exception of Steven, who's on record sucking dick, had more pussy than you can even imagine. That's why guys start bands, to get laid - but you keep thinking it's all about what you think, lol.
To quote David Lee Roth (who probably stole it from someone else) "All the girls want me, and all the boys want to BE me."
It was just the fashion back in the day, it's what got you pussy. Doesn't matter, they still shredded.
>There are too many groups, there are too many musicians,” he says later. “And they’re all in it for the wrong reasons. I’m sorry Tony, but they are. I saw this documentary on BBC2 about Pulp or Blur. They’re going, ‘We’re in it because of women or drugs’ What you fucking talking about?”’ They’re saying, ‘We always wanted to be like The Beatles: get women’ Imagine saying that to This Heat [Mark laughs, hysterical] It’s always: ‘Jarvis Cocker would never get a woman unless he was in a group’ So who cares? Good for you boy. Well done. I got more women before I was in The Fall. I had more money before I was in The Fall.
>Random quote from poofy brit pop star

You're that black cloud of sneering doom who ruins every party, hangout, bar, or online discussion of music, because you try to ram everyone into your narrow little box of "YOU CAN ONLY LIKE WHAT I DO". I know you. I know you well. That's why I can say with confidence - nobody fucking cares.
Why do 2010s indie rock stars dress like "genderqueers" and "non binary" or whatever the fuck that means? 80s hair metal looks like fucking Schwarzanagger compared to today's shit.

It's way better than nigger rap shit and limp noodle indie rock by some liberal faggot finger wagging you. Since you have the mentality of a woman, you only listen to what's trendy and follow the herd mentality instead of seeking out what you truly like. You're focused on image more than substance.
These bands rock the fuck out and I love putting their music on, and you'll never understand the idea of just enjoying music because everything is an image based posturing game with you people. Sickening.
You’re vastly overestimating the intellectual nature of indie rock.

Unironically the rappers have taken over that. Industry doesn't want to promote white rock with balls because it gets accused of being "sexist", "redneck", "buttrock", and all that shit in the current climate so you get neutered indie, tepid post grunge, or imagine dragons shit.
no one listened to Britpop in America though, the shittiest hair metal band has sold more records than Oasis.
This thread is a zoomer cringefest.
ironically oasis is the only britpop band that actually sold some records here, the rest didn't but at least they had a hit or two in the 90s. britpop is shit though yeah
>Axl has a long pinky nail for cigarette packs

was there ever a more comfy rock broship than Duff and Slash?
They've sold peanuts, Bjork tier record sales. like couple of millions.
Yeah I mean nothing compared to the big rock bands like GNR but compared to other Britpop bands they did better. Blur and shit probably sold like 100k.
I always thought it was more an Izzy-Duff guitar-bass harmony wise broship.
Slash has always been on his own like axl.
thats a coke nail
Good times.
The shittiest band could sell couple of millions in the mid-90s with some push from their label and mtv. I mean Hanson and Silverchair outsold Oasis lol.

>Well, to be fair, they were glamming it up pretty hard, right up to just before Appetite came out - there's plenty of pictures of them in full Strip makeup and teased hair, but that's what the Strip was
They definitely had the glam look, but musically I just think they weren't very "glam metal" and thus not a "hair band", to me they sounded different even on Appetite, you kind of get that metal sound on shit like Nightrain but they seemed a lot more rock n rolly and less pop metally....I dunno, just in the guitar work and shit I personally see why people don't consider Gn'R a glam metal or hair metal band. They seem like a band who could have come out in the 70's in some way, while other bands were pure 80's. I think Motley Crue and Ratt back in those days were more "metal" than Gn'R to my ears.
>Not as great as Metallica, Megadeth, and Exodus in small clubs and theaters, but good.
I've never gotten Exodus, I like thrash but that's one band I've never heard the appeal of compared to some other bands.
>Guns-n-Roses were a bunch of effete limp-wrists worshipped by feckless "I'm-uneducated-and-blue-collar-and-growing-a-paunch-but-I'm-as-good-as-anyone-else" losers who nowadays do little but contemplate their obesity, loveless marriage, and unfulfilled dreams.
1. Gn'R were more badass than any band you like, they got into actual fist fights, lived on the streets, and actually lived the life style.
2. Fair enough, but that's who rock and roll and heavy metal is for....if you're upper class, or take pride in being upper class, you have no place in rock n' roll neither as an artist nor a fan. It's not for you and never was.
>I'm so glad Nirvana came and killed these fuckers
Nirvana didn't, Gn'R much like Kurt Gobang, killed themselves....Gn'R was still the biggest rock band in the world when they imploded, and to this day are one of the biggest drawing touring acts.

>Americans have garbage taste
British music is all based on American music, so...okay?
Nu-male arguments never make sense anyway...rednecks didn't like glam rock, KISS tell stories about how they would get threatened in the South the moment they stepped off the stage, hell even non glam hard rock and metal was not well received for the most part....Megadeth have told stories about lying to Southerners about what kind of music they play to avoid hassle. Nu-males just have a warped view of history because they have daddy issues and equate all older music that wasn't in line with modern attitudes as being "redneck" which is just their secret code for "mostly straight and white"

I'm American and I like Suede, Pulp, Elastica, Supergrass, and Oasis more than any glam metal band. I find they have more substance, and they resonate more with me.
Glam/Hair "Metal" was never true metal, which is so painfully obvious I shouldn't have to say it. Real metalheads in the 80s who were into NWOBHM, thrash metal bands like Metallica, Slayer, Kreator, and Sepultura, early black metal bands like Celtic Frost, early death metal bands like Death, Morbid Angel, and Obituary, and doom metal bands like Saint Vitus all despised glam metal, and were much more closely associated with the punk scene, especially hardcore punk. Do you know why? It's because the heavier punk bands were closer to what metal really was, and they actually cared about the music. In fact, that's why so many of the bands progressed from punk to metal as they developed musically, like Carcass. It was a continuation of the same thing, but with more technical proficiency.
Glam Metal musicians never cared about metal, and neither do their fans. You're a pop fan. And that's why you're so defensive and such a purist - you're hiding behind the bands that are actually good. I bet you secretly prefer New Wave to Black Metal, don't you? It's okay. Do you know why that is? It's because new wave is pop music, not punk or "alternative," the same way glam/hair "metal" isn't metal. You're a pop fan. Go be a pop fan. There are some big sounding rock bands in the pop world right now, like Imagine Dragons, who I'm sure you'll love. I personally don't get the appeal, but I know you will. Because it's your kind of music, and not mine.
Stephen Pearcy looks like a scary serial killer now. Not just old, but threatening.
He should be cast in some of those Tob Zombie slasher movies.
This is the best answer. GnR did pick it up after Diamond Dave though. Funny him and Axel both went "insane"
They're not a bad band they're just extremely generic.
>m American and I like Suede, Pulp, Elastica, Supergrass, and Oasis more than any glam metal band. I find they have more substance, and they resonate more with me.
Fair enough. Opposite for me.
>Glam/Hair "Metal" was never true metal, which is so painfully obvious I shouldn't have to say it.
Mmm, no it all depends really, I mean my "elitism" clearly goes back farther than yours so I won't be a dick about that, you know nothing of what was metal pre 80's and barely an understanding of the 80's, so I won't be a dick, but "glam metal" was basically an extension of American ideas that fused with some UK ideas, ultimately more commercial than the NWOBHM but had pretty much the same influences as well as stuff like both US and UK glam rock and at the time "cutting egde" shit like the legendary Van Halen, who were in every way considered "heavy metal" when they debuted.
> Real metalheads in the 80s who were into NWOBHM, thrash metal bands like Metallica, Slayer, Kreator, and Sepultura, early black metal bands like Celtic Frost, early death metal bands like Death, Morbid Angel, and Obituary, and doom metal bands like Saint Vitus
Yikes, you just listed a shitload of bands from different scenes, eras, and countries....as if they all were part of the same thing...you don't know much.
>and were much more closely associated with the punk scene, especially hardcore punk. Do you know why? It's because the heavier punk bands were closer to what metal really was, and they actually cared about the music
Actually, no, and let us just focus on thrash metal here because it's clearly what you're referencing...thrash metal overall was more in the vein of British metal, and the NWOBHM, than anything punk, only punk about it is shitty vocals and speed...but only "crossover thrash" is truly punk and most of that shit fucking sucks. And thrash is not pure heavy metal, it's about as much metal as glam metal is, neither are pure metal...period.
Part 1
Glam rock was a California thing obviously. And one reason Stevie Ray Vaughn got big was that a lot of rednecks in the South and Midwest dug his brand of buttblues, but you only ever heard the LA fag metal shit on the radio back then. Also he was a true native son of the heartland states.
>KISS tell stories about how they would get threatened in the South the moment they stepped off the stage
During KISS's heyday Southern rock was at its height so those dudes only liked .38 Special, Tom Petty, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and friends.
>In fact, that's why so many of the bands progressed from punk to metal as they developed musically, like Carcass. It was a continuation of the same thing, but with more technical proficiency.
A band like Motley Crue or Ratt has far more in common with true metal like Judas Priest or Black Sabbath than early Carcass does (who I am a fan of) because Carcass was a grindcore band, grindcore is a sub genre of hardcore punk....not related to metal, at all. Carcass became metal, eventually, and they sounded a lot like Iron Maiden!
>Glam Metal musicians never cared about metal, and neither do their fans. You're a pop fan. And that's why you're so defensive and such a purist - you're hiding behind the bands that are actually good. I bet you secretly prefer New Wave to Black Metal, don't you?
I don't listen to black metal at all because I'm not a fucking queer, sorry, I'll stick to true metal that is triumphant, fierce, and powerful and has thunderous drums and guitar solos that make me want to cum...you stick you your faggot pseudo goth shit they call black "metal".
If you're a black metal fan, you're not a metal fan, you don't own vinyl, you're a poseur.
ZZ Top were also big and they had their MTV breakout with Eliminator.

Watch decline of western civilization 2 if you wanna see how awesome your rock and roll superstars really were
The last band I know about that tried to emulate that lifestyle was Escape the Fate, who I saw back in June 06. Their lead singer was a junkie and an asshole; he would steal laptops and other big ticket items from fans' houses to sell for drug money, up until his jail term and eventual removal from the band
Pretty /fa/ movie, but also depressing as shit
>Glam rock was a California thing obviously.
Glam rock was a NYC and UK thing, glam METAL was a LA thing but you also had East Coast staples like Twisted Sister.

Yeah flyovers also had them.
All the punk and alt rock bands critics jerked off were not necessarily more intelligent than the average metal group and usually just as degenerate.
>Watch decline of western civilization 2 if you wanna see how awesome your rock and roll superstars really were
Most of the bands in that movie were not super stars....at all....you can see some future or literally just about to be stars like LA Guns and Rex Brown of Pantera, some at the time current stars like Poison and WASP, and established stars like KISS, Alice Cooper, Lemmy, and Ozzy....but most of the movie focused on losers/up and comers/never to be-ers

What did you think the scene was really like? At the time this movie came out, ratt and the other one hit wonders had to take the spotlight while van halen was between singers and motley crue was burned out/getting sober. Gnr didn't break out until 88 so they missed the entire scene (they did a show in my town in 88 opening for alice Cooper at the local shithole, playing for ~1000 Mexican kids)

You wish, Bob.
>Led Zeppelin attracts a rougher, less affluent, and less self-righteous crowd than the country-flavored bands that dominate rock these days.
Fair enough, we did note that their fanbase was more blue collar and not dominated by douchey hipsters like the Eagles, James Taylor, and CSNY. And points to him for admitting that hipsters are smug douchebags.
>For some reason, this crowd gets off not only on the kinky textures of Led Zep's ensemble playing, but also on displays of dubious instrumental virtuosity--Page bowing his guitar, or John Bonham clubbing his way through a 15-minute drum solo.
Here he really shows off what a clueless, out-of-touch hipster he is since he can't comprehend why normal rock fans get a kick out of stage stunts like these.
>Also, the music ran a little long for someone as jaded as myself.
Yes, Bob, the fresh-faced teenagers in that crowd were probably more impressed with Zeppelin's noodling than a cynical adult who has to listen to 30 albums a day.
My dad said when he was a kid they all thought Ian Anderson standing on one leg playing a flute was the coolest thing ever.
Ratt hardly a one hit wonder dude...in retrospect sure, they were a big band, and a good band for the genre. But yeah the movie was made to make the scene look stupid as possible so they focused on the dumbest and most apparently going nowhere people they could, even if some of them went somewhere much to the dismay of the woman who made it I'm sure.
I have their albums and listen to them on a daily basis, you don't, but you know more? K. Also the very fact that you call me homophobic shows your character and your agenda...fuck off bro, you don't belong in this conversation. Stick to Radiohead and Nirvana, you don't like this music nor do you listen to it let alone "know" about it, it's the music I listen to every day.
I was being MOSTLY ironic, combating blatant bullshit with more of the same, anyone with a brain could see that but since I've triggered you I'll go into the part that wasn't ironic...most black metal fans are not metal fans at all, they are in fact poseurs. They don't know metal history and don't listen to pure metal, they're 9 times out of ten at least on this board hipsters who prefer indie rock and post punk to hard rock and heavy metal music and only like black metal because they feel it gives them hipster cred, it's a big joke and so are they.
Too bad Ratt's songs were always so sluggish and low-energy.

Beautiful thing about heavy metal is that there is something for everyone...Ratt is the more commercial sounding realm of their time. Nothing wrong with that, not everything has to be the same and if I want some catchy hooky music that still has good guitar solos and a badass feel Ratt is always a good option. I don't need to listen to Burzum for "metal" and switch to Billie Eilish for "pop", I have all I need within the music I like.
I miss real people
LA has always been a fairly trashy city from a cultural POV while NorCal has all the mannered, preening yuppies.

you're telling me...this is what the kids call a "bop" i believe?
That faggot has the lyrical talent of a fucking Seuss book

I can't think of any other band besides Guns N' Roses where every other member is more likable than the frontman.
Axl is perfectly likable. You only hate him because he taps into some part of your subconscious and reminds you of some twisted archetype of a villain you've made for yourself in your "current year" head
He has a lot to learn.

LOOK AT ALL THE PEOPLE HERRRRRE TONIGHT....
>i miss shirtless dudes screaming in bdsm cosplay

pick one, faggot
i was in a hair metal mood the other day... reminescing ... but to be real: the value of their proposition is done, it can't be done again. it's over. it was a fun thing that happened, it was so insane it couldn't be taken too seriously and nobody really did and it was fine like that: collectively we rode it til it crashed of natural causes. something totally new should come up, fuck remakes! fuck nostalgia!
Greta Van Fleet will redeem modern music
fuck real rock stars, all they do is sexually assault their fans, get old and bloated and start making shit albums.
The greatest frontman of all time is David Byrne
Never heard of Stone Temple Pilots, Velvet Revolver, or Creed, huh?
omg u r def mate
Slash would've looked great without the happy trail. The happy trail fucking ruins this pic.
Quite funny considering Suede's image and the fact the term was originally used to describe them.
u wot m8?
Brett Anderson (in those days anyway) was never really "dressed down". They originated the term but were never compatible with what came to define the genre.
>"dressed down"
Sounds more like grebo lol. Britpop was oppposed to that happy hitcher shit
Too autistic.
Was it really? I'm a little surprised. Grebo and Britpop have a lot in common, most notably their mutual obsession with 90s London pop culture. They were both basically alternative pop. They really have a ton in common. It seems like the major thing distinguishing them is that Grebo followed the Happy Mondays template, and were more influenced by then-current genres like industrial, hip hop, and post-punk, while Britpop followed more The Stone Roses' template, and were more influenced by older forms of British pop music, like glam rock, new wave, mod, punk, etc. But both have kind of this manic consumerist energy, like they're reveling in the self-destructive plastic-ness of British pop culture. In fact, I'm surprised there wasn't more crossover, though Grebo happened a little earlier. There were some great bands in both genres, though - Suede and Carter USM stand out
