Glam metal

Rock music popular in the 80s with catchy choruses, usually romantic but friendly lyrics, major scales and joyful tones and usually was more hard rock than metal. The bands usually were drag queens. They also often sold out and made power ballads or went unplugged.

"WHAT'S METAL ABOUT THAT?!" - Dee Snider

Oh and also, TWISTED SISTER ARE NOT GLAM METAL, THEY'RE JUST HEAVY METAL. They sound NOTHING like glam, and sound more like Judas Priest, Saxon and Ozzy than Poison and Ratt. Neither are their lyrics glam. How is rebellion and kicking ass with rock n roll considered love and lust?????? They only got called glam just cause of their frontmans look. Glam is NOT a fashion. It's music. And at least Dee Snider has a more shock rock look than a glamour look. He's meant to look freaky in that makeup, not glamour-friendly. And he doesn't wear makeup anymore. And shit even metal archives doesn't even call them glam. Even Metallica were huge fans of twisted sister and they obviously DESPISED glam. If TS are glam, so is Iron Maidrn and Saxon. It's obvious they don't sound anything like the glam bands, they don't sound all joyful catchy pop-influenced shit that glam does. I bet if u told a fan they were glam they'd knock your god damn lights out!!!

REAL glam metal: Quiet Riot, Kix, Poison, Cinderella, Warrant, Mötley Crüe (except the first 2 albums; they were just heavy metal), Ratt, Whitesnake, KISS (1983-1989), Dokken, White Lion, Black Veil Brides, etc

NOT glam: Twisted Sister, Alice Cooper (although the song poison sounds glam), GnR, Van Halen, Ozzy Osbourne, etc

Glam Metal

Glam Metal/Rock, also known by the MTV term "Hair Metal", is, contrary to popular belief, a Rock N' Roll fashion statement, and not a genre.

The first band to use it were the finnish Hard Rock band Hanoi Rocks, and was made popular in the 80's by Mötley Crüe, but the whole concept behind it was probably influenced by KISS.

Glam Metal/Rock bands are neither more nor less than just Hard Rock or traditional Heavy Metal bands.

Glam Metal/Rock bands that are, or were atleast at some point, Heavy Metal:
- Twisted Sister
- Dokken
- Quiet Riot
- Mötley Crüe
- Icon
- W.A.S.P.
- Seduce

Glam Metal/Rock bands that are Hard Rock:
- RATT
- Cinderella
- Poison
- Britny Fox
- Warrant
- Guns N' Roses
- Bon Jovi

glam lesbian

Glam lesbians are gay females who show up in videos wearing excessive makeup and jewelry and make you think all lesbians are as hot as Jennifer Anniston. They are distant cousins of the thespian lespian.

Carl "Man I can't believe chicks this hot are lesbians!"
Mike "Meh, they're just glam lesbians".
