I'm still trying to figure out how Ozzy Osbourne, Loverboy, and Aerosmith qualify as "hair bands" :shock:

I would have to question Kix being higher than 25, let alone even being on this list...

I was thinking the same thing.

Well, most of them would qualify as "lack of hair" bands were it not for some superbly crafted hairpieces and Propecia.

Give me a break. At least half of that list are not hair metal bands.

Exactly, he's got Bad English in the worst and Loverboy in the best.

Loverboy isn't metal and I don't remember any of them having much hair. :lol:

19) Loverboy: I wouldn't blame you if you confused these guys with Night Ranger, who almost made this list until I decided that guys who worked for the weekend and told us the kid is hot tonite deserved to be here more. Besides, singer Mike Reno wore one heck of a headband and even had a miserable hit with "Almost Paradise," a song very well-liked by my cat, Tiger, the ultimate critic and, at 20, the boss of the house.

Just by his style of writing, it would be safe to assume that this blog (it is only a blog, of course :roll:

) was written more tongue-in-cheek and shouldn't really be taken as an official journalist's/critic's view... :wink:

That is if any of them have any credibility left themselves. :roll:

Welllll, let's be honest... :lol:

Bad English was not exactly stellar.

AND THEIR HAIR SUCKED!

The list should be called 'The 25 Best Hair Bands'.

I've always understood the term 'Metal' was used to describe bands such as Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth, etc.

One of the worst lists ever made. period. :evil:

My favorite of this list:

14) Kix: A great cereal and an underrated band. Kix never achieved the success of many of their fellow foot soldiers, but when Kix did have their brief moment of breakthrough it happened in classic hair-metal style. With a ballad. Like nearly every other band on this list, the band connected with the masses with a song--"Don't Close Your Eyes"--that doesn't best represent their sound. But the money was green and after years of mayonnaise sandwiches, I'm sure the band was only too happy to add some ham to the mix.

Kix used to be hometown heroes in Baltimore.

I refuse to let my boxers get all bunched up over this sort of thing..again..it's just a list and someone's opinion..there's a lot more important things going on to put my energy into..

That's fucked up. How come i did'nt see Mr. Big in that list?

by **Pstburp** » Mon May 05, 2008 3:04 pm

There are at least a dozen classic songs on the only two record they put out.

Hey, don't fuck with Bad English alright? :lol:

No really, they had some real good music going on there.

Oh, and the list sucks big time! Where are Extreme, Mr.Big, Damn Yankees and all?
