why do people still claim that glam metal is bad music? vocals, melodies, instrumentation was always the best in metalliterally every nerd hates on it but it was always vice visa for me, i grew up on dokken and cinderella
cuz it doesn't try to appeal to metalheads, it wasn't born from metalheads, it's not about badass stuff, it's pop music who tries to appeal to a normie general audience, the members wear gay make-up, mostly about partying and sex (metalheads hate these)
>>127884831but crue are badass, they have more arrests than all metal bands combined
they managed to produce enjoyable singles but most of their albums instead are very bland. why listening to glam metal albums if there are plenty of better heavy metal albums that are actually worth relistening
>>127884831I can understand zoomers going for it though, it aligns perfectly with their tastes - superficial, hyper-commercialised, about image over substance, its everything they value most.
>>127884831this >>127884800cuz its fucking gay, put on some bathory and death instead
>>127884920>why listening to glam metal albums if there are plenty of better heavy metal albums that are actually worth relisteningName 219
>>127885106fuck I can only think of 217
Music made by faggots for faggots
>>127884800It's fags like >>127884831 and >>127885546Personally I can enjoy all hard rock and metal genres except (((death))), (((black))) and (((industrial))) metal.
>>127884800It's just power pop with metal guitar solos.
It was too poppy and singles-driven, the albums themselves aren't very memorable. This is why nu-metal got a nostalgia wave and glam/hair metal didn't, nu-metal was still somewhat album-focused. Listening to an entire Korn or Deftones album is acceptable, with 80s hair metal you're largely limited to greatest hits or compilation albums.
>>127884800You know a band is talented when they're able to establish their own distinct sound & maintain it well past a single LP.In this sense, the first 3 Ratt albums should be held in equally high regard as the first 3 Ramones albums (or Motorhead's "Overkill", "Bomber" & "Ace Of Spades", for instance).Again, it's consistency we're talking about here.And Ratt's "Out Of The Cellar", "Invasion Of Your Privacy" & "Dancing Undercover" were rare within the glam rock genre, staying true to their style for a high quality 3 album run.A rarity in any genre of music where lesser bands can barely recall, let alone replicate, what made their previous album any good whatsoever.Yet Ratt (who arguably are a better, albeit less accomplished, band than Crue) were able to stay true to their sound with ease.That is, until record label pressure to sell more physical units fucked with their momentum.All to remind /mu/ that, while Crue is good, Ratt is even better!
Bald niggas hate on it due to their own lack of hair
>>127885985your victimhood is showing
>>127887990
>>127885985>t. gay retard
>>127887882People with working ears hate Motley Crue because they're gay fucking dogshit. You couldn't put together a group of more untalented retards than this band.
The music is dogshit. All the corny shit from glam rock and heavy metal with none of the stuff that makes either actually good music.
>>127890155imao mick mars mogs every thrash guitarist who is not mustaine and vince can outsing every thrash "singer"
>>127886186And worse songwriting generally.The reason mealfags hate it though is because they're cringe theater kids obsessed with how "badass" and "kvlt" the bands they're listening to look.
>>127884800Glam Metal is music specifically made for girls.Rule of thumb, if a band's biggest hits are ballads = for girls.Music specifically made for a female or gay fanbase = dogshit.Poptimist reviewers = paid dogshit promoted by record companies to get girls and gays to listen to dogshit.
>>127895765No one on earth believes this shit
>>127895831Good thing The Crue's biggest hits ain't ballads
>>127887882>t. Wiggi Sixx
>>127895831GnR disproves your theses
>>127892916let us hear thrash singers cover something from skid row or cinderella lol
If you actually care that much about technical vocals, Heavy Metal mogs these bands. Would love to see some shitty hair metal band try to do Run to the Hills.
>>127884800The real mystery is why pop rock fans have such a strong need for validation on a chinese cartoon website's music board. For such high-test based normal chads, you guys don't seem very self-assured.
>>127899533There are plenty of iron maiden cover bands that sing that crap perfectly
>>127900389No there aren't.
