I mean, I dont really dig Bon Jovi, but I still like some of their stuff, you know? I can even play 'You Give Love a Bad Name.'</p> <p>I dont know why people hate Cinderella so much. I love 'em. And I love Whitesnake, too, like hell. Me and my friend always play 'em when we jam. They were my first rock band, first Glam band, first band to get me into HAIR, and the reason I'm now in a band -- I practically lost my virginity to them! </p> <p>And Vixen. Although I can sympathise with why they're disliked. Still disagree though, I'm just sympathetic, lol!</p> <p>I havent listened to Nelson or Warrant, haha, but by the common agreement against them I guess I dont want to. And you know, I'm not really so big on Skid Row. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25933 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 12:57:42 +0000 metalrulesall 25933@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>i would have to say cinderella...in my opinion there the farthest thing from since since iron maiden whom i also dispise </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25916 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 18:07:14 +0000 Retroman 25916@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I've gotta admit that we took the piss out of Trixter at the time. Glam in the 80s and early 90s covered many styles of fashion and acceptability. I think Skid Row were clever as they managed to blend in with there ruff 'n' ready leather look. I would say it looked halfway between 'Thrash' and 'Glam'. I prefered that over the full on Tigertailz approach. I loved Motley Crue's bad boy image.</p> <p>Anyway, most music scenes have the pioneers, mainstream and wannabes otherwise we would just have a bunch of clones plus it gives the genre exposure to the newbees.</p> <p>I remember starting at the bottom and working my way up. I discovered glam by listening to the UK Top40 chart - No internet back in the 80s, and we only had four TV channels <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> <p>It's hard to dress like Tigertailz all the time but Skid Row's style is straight out of bed and that's great when you're on the road most of the time...</p> <p>No band ruined it for me folks - We all filtered out what we thought was crap, Our lass hated Winger, White Lion and Bon Jovi but loved Skid Row, L.A. Guns and Motley Crew. She still has the same opinion now (2009). </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25907 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 21:47:26 +0000 Shaggzilla 25907@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I have to go with Nelson. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25897 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 04:30:04 +0000 Glamrockerfs 25897@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>those bands aren't bad they are just wussy. THe only clinicly bad glam bands ive heard are London (no wonder Slash, Izzy, Nikki, Blackie and Fredy all were in the band and left)and Diamond Rexx. and they even arn't so much bad, just run of the mill and mediocre to a point of near nothingness </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25896 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 04:24:22 +0000 Glamrockerfs 25896@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Nothing ruined it for me . but in reality, All of New Jersey except for Skid Row. Bon Jovi and Trixter just skrewed everyone over and also Nelson. Also, once some bands got lazy and dressed in a less extreme image (trixter, no make up or flashy clothes or leather) that might have made for the whole package to seem watered down, a major aspect of glam is the full package music, image, show everything </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/3#post-25888 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 06:29:12 +0000 Retroman 25888@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>**Rant**</p> <p>It wasn't the bands that ruined glam for me but the other metal headz that took to piss out of it sarcastically referring to it as "Cock Rock" - WHICH I HATE!!!!</p> <p>Back in the 80s, Skid Row, Motley Crue and most of the bands on this site were 'Metal' and they still are today.</p> <p>Listen to Bryan Adams and then play "Hold Your Fire" by Firehouse and tell me which song has the metal riffs...?</p> <p><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lar3pyN_bCM"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lar3pyN_bCM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object></p> <p>Here are some examples of the main genres of music:</p> <p>Cascada = Dance<br /> Kylie = Pop<br /> U2 = Rock<br /> Oasis = Indie<br /> Faith No More = Alternative<br /> Cinderella = Metal</p> <p>'Heavy Metal' is a sub genre of 'Rock', here are some examples for those of you who get confused...</p> <p>Black Sabbath = Heavy Metal<br /> Iron Maiden = NWBHM<br /> Slayer = Thrash Metal<br /> Helloween = Power Metal<br /> Slipknot = Nu Metal<br /> Iron Monkey = Sludge Metal<br /> Fear Factory = Industrial Metal<br /> Dimmu Borgir = Black Metal<br /> Anathema = Doom Metal<br /> Type O Negative = Gothic Metal<br /> Nile = Death Metal<br /> Electric Boys = Funk Metal<br /> Motley Crue = Glam Metal</p> <p>**Rant over**</p> <p>BTW, I thought that the Timotei Twins sucked <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/2#post-25887 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 05:21:41 +0000 SixxShooter 25887@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Of the bands offered for the vote --Britny Fox, of course!

But glam is pretty mainstream in Sweeden and there is a really kick ass underground glam scene in north carolina that i am a part of and i just think that the states need more newer glam bands i mean we got steel panther(next twisted sister in my opinion), Dirty Penny(could be the next Crue) and Buck cherry. But we need alot more man. i mean there are a few underground one's that have talent and have the early glam style like Sister Hyde, Middle Finger Mob and my little group the Bubblegum Mafia. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/2#post-23122 Tue, 26 May 2009 06:03:23 +0000 RockLibertyWarrior 23122@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I don't know I must be lame because most of the bands people are list as ruining glam I think rock. Agree with glamchick later Scorps sucked early Scorps rock but altogether if glam was ruined for you because of some band why are you even on here? If it was ruined for you you shouldn't like it anymore. Thats just my two cents and two cents don't buy a dog shit nowadays. Yes Nelson sucks, their dad was even better than them! </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/2#post-23119 Mon, 25 May 2009 21:02:47 +0000 glamchick 23119@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>nobody. i totally dig all glam but the scorps they bites ass.. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/2#post-23008 Wed, 13 May 2009 15:11:59 +0000 Pretty_Boy_Catt 23008@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Hahaha well since ya got memories to it, its different man.

And I think on Revenge they stayed mostly true to their sound, they just looked grungy.<br /> And even then, their "grunge" look was still pretty glam, I mean their hair was nice and teased up and they wore tight leather. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-forum/what-band-ruined-glam-for-you/page/2#post-22352 Wed, 11 Mar 2009 12:18:39 +0000 Guitarsmurf 22352@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Err... I'm gonna get some scheisse for this, but... Nelson's done some pretty good songs. But they were never really a hair/glamband to begin with. More of a pop/AOR band. It's like saying Foreigner was a bad glamband, or Journey.</p> <p>GNR wasn't the most original band ever, but "Appetite..." was one of the most kickass debuts ever though.</p> <p>What ruined glam for me is all the posers who jumped ship mid-90s trying to catch up with the times. Turning to grunge/alt-rock or industrial.</p> <p>Just think of the crap some bands put out in the 90s:</p> <p>Metallica: Load (barf)<br /> Van Halen: III (double-barf)<br /> Extreme: Waiting for the Punchline (blueprint for VH III) </p>
