What's your position on heavy-sounding Glam Metal?
The glittery sleaze from L.A.'s Glam scene were my earliest memories of Rock 'n' Roll, so I have a slight soft spot for all of them, even some of the fruitier ones. Some bands still sound heavy even by today's standards.

Anyone who hates W.A.S.P. is an enemy of Metal.

Here's something curious. These guys started out as a Johnny-come-lately Glam Metal band from New Jersey. Later, Ritual changed their name to New Minority and remixed the songs with White Nationalist lyrics. Unfortunately, not even Resistance Records could move the band's stuff, so New Minority reverted to Ritual.

Hell yeah man. I've been thinking about this since forever. There has been some great stuff from the Glam era, which people overlook.

>Formed in 1978 by Lizzie Grey and Nikki Sixx after meeting each other in Sister. London's first line-up consisted of Michael White, Lizzie Grey, Nikki Sixx, and Dane Rage.
>London has undergone numerous line-up changes since its inception and in some sense can be (unofficially) considered a transition band, as many former members have gone on to form or become members of well-known bands. Grey's departure in 1988 meant that no founding or original line-up members were left in the band.
>The band broke up in 1981, reformed in 1984, broke up again in 1991, and reformed again in 2006.
Quality pre-Crue stuff.

Glam vs thrash was the most interesting rivalry prior to the Black metal vs Swedish Death. Fucking fascinating. We need a rivalry like that now.

The weird thing about metalcore/deathcore bands is that instead of keeping with their sound in the face of criticism they attempt to make it more true.

The only thing that separates glam metal from anything else is what they're wearing on stage tbh.
