Meh, I prefer more modern metal, havn't really listened too much 80's metal. Of course, modern metal doesnt include that silly emo gak we get these days.

Will check out those songs you posted.

Even the mighty Motorhead wasn't immune to the hair spray fumes....




Although I must admit I really like this song,it's catchy as hell.

Vile is not strong enough. Some people should never be allowed near a musical instrument or a camera.

The reason that 80s hair metal came into existence.

Klawz-Ramming is a subset of citrus fruit?

80s hair at it's best:

--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

I saw them when I worked a Maple Leaf Gardens many, many years ago. I think they opened for "Poison". Total uber 80s cheese chick Metal.

The Crue and GNR and Def Leppard were the only 80's bands I cared for. Sure GNR isn't technically "hair metal" but it's a similiar sound and style (and leather and drugs and alcohol addiction).

Some was just awful like Firehouse or Dokken.
