Yes it is,long hair denim jeans guitar solos that's metal.
So jeans and long hair is something that creates a genre of music? Do you realise how fucking retarded that is. If i wear a suit or something, does that make me a jazz player? Sure there is an image to music, but anyone who thinks image makes a genre or music has no clue at all.
Guitar Solo's are not exclusive to metal, infact, solo's arent exclusive to metal at all.
Tesla Skid Row and Motley Crue all metal.I wouldn't dare call Bon Jovi metal but the other bands are not saying
I listened to these bands, and all i hear is hard rock.
It doesn't matter hair metal is fucking metal bands like motely crue and skid row are fucking it's a sub genre of music and yes I do know what I'm fucking talking about guess what metal and rock have evolved since the 80's but during their times they where fucking metal.
so is close mindedness and just elitist when it comes in terms of metal.
I told you before, i think stuff like Cannibal Corpse sucks, but i dont deny that their metal.
I dont like Iron Maiden, but i dont deny their metal.
Their is a ton of metal bands i find boring or crap, i dont deny their metal.
So what is this elitism and close-mindedness you speak off. You know i listen to alot of metal where some of those tru metalheads brush it off, like Cynic.
Have you thought for a second maybe someone has a fucking clue about music, and can acctually make up their own fucking opinion.
Im not saying those bands are bad, not at all, their just not metal, why does it bother you that their not metal? Why do insist they must be a part of metal when their not? Why is it necessary for you to label these bands as metal when their not.
