    Jason, after playing these riffs, my hair magically turned blonde and grew atleast 50cm! The results were amazing. Thanks alot, please bring us more. I think Gunnar is a wizard. 😆😆😆

    I agree with your take of GNR and Alice Cooper being hair metal. I’d also add Ozzy, KISS and Aerosmith as they put out hits that fit right in the flavor of the day. I’d also include Queenshryche and Maiden as they were bunched in there as well thanks in part to the rotation on Headbanger’s Ball

    I never liked the term hair metal. In Britain it was mainly just called heavy metal. Bands like Poison which looked more like women were considered hair metal, but bands like Iron Maiden, Dokken and Black Sabbath, Metallica, Megadeth just had long hair and they were great at what they did.They should not all be lumped together into one thing, because they were very different. The term annoys me because it is used by people who are not into metal as a way denigrating the talented musicians that played metal.

    • @jasonstallworth

      Hair metal were the pop "metal" bands shown on MTV all the time. Those bands focused more on looks and hair spray, and the music itself was mostly just pop rock with loud drums and not actually metal. Poison for example.

    • @TheTimeProphet
      @TheTimeProphet Před 10 měsíci

      @@adriantrusca1245 Actually Poison was metal. The definition of metal is a guitar orientated band with loud bass and drums, so that means they were metal. Just because they wore make up doesn't make playing the guitar easier though. I was just saying that not all bands wore that, Iron Maiden never did. You can't say a band isn't metal because it isn't heavy enough either. I mean Black Sabbath have some very slow songs, which you may also not consider metal, but it actually is.
