Best 80s Band

Some of those bands are not hair metal. The most obvious one being Van Halen.

I don't like that style of music, but I'll go with Motley Crue. Entertaining music.

Van Halen cos the rest are poo

I said wasp just cos i thought they wouldn't get the votes they probably deserve.

As for Vh etc not being hair metal they were one of the main reasons that type of music came around same with the rocks.

Skid Row (wherever they are...)

There's no competition here for me - Motley Crue. I don't really like people calling them a hair band because that's not exactly how they started out, TFFL and SATD were more speed metal, as for their look, it was a cross between dominatrix punk and Mad Max. But as we all know, they slid into a hair metal category later. I love them either way.

not many other bands can get over their differences just to please fans - i dont care if they are in it for the money - its what the fans want so fuck the rest.

satd was one of the great estearly real metal records

The Crue got my vote B)

[jack99]

I don't know what Van Halen is doing on that list but they got my vote.

Motely Crue is runner up.....

[disorder]

Whitesnake and Motley Crue.

How did Van Halen get on a list of hair bands? Even GNR are closer to being a hair band then Van Halen.........

[Wild_Child]

for me personally i prefer w.a.s.p. out of those, but they aren't a band that i would really think of as hair metal that much.
