Did Grunge really kill hair metal?
#10
Hair Metal made it on the look as opposed to the sound imo.

MTV just started up and videos were the new thing. Beattles had already done this but they were mostly short movies until MTV launched.

Then it was all about the look momentarily. Still is in Country.

But it did not take long for Hair Metal to be exposed as piss poor.

Glad I grew up in 60's and 70's and listened and attended live all the great ones in lieu of that junk.

PS ZZ Top was famous as a southern rock band long before that but they tried to switch their style for the era.

Lagrange, Jesus just left Chicago, Tush, and I'm Nationwide.

Remember one song that used to jam on by them that is obscure now because the lyrics forced the radio to quit playing because it promoted drinking and driving. Arrested for driving while blind.

Catchy tune but politically incorrect nowadays.

Oops, guess I am showing my age now.
