Power worse than glam?

Yeah, sorry. You can say whatever you want about Hair Metal, but there are great guitarists that don't get heard in those bands because you nerds can't handle a few soft tracks. There's a skip button for that reason. Even Strappado would agree with me... if he still came to this forum.

Edit: Don't get me wrong. I like a few Power Metal bands...

Let's hear some names.

I've listened to my share of hair metal and power metal and I find that, by and large, hair metal is much, much worse. The band Poison on its own sinks that genre entirely.

I'd almost agree with that, lol...

See: Dokken, Lynch Mob, and (early) Mötley Crüe.

Inb4 ballads. Yeah, they suck. I know.

Dokken had a song I liked, although I forgot the name and Motley Crue is one of my most hated bands of all-time. I like the song Dr. Feelgood, but everything else sends me into a blind fury of white hot rage.

It was "Don't Close Your Eyes", now that I've looked into it.

Going for my third Bathory album tonight.

Dopethrone would be mine. It was the first Electric Wizard album and still holds up.

Let Us Prey is probably my second favorite.

Haha I don't think I've met a single person who didn't think Dopethrone was their best. Same goes for me too, with Come My Fanatics.... being probably my second favorite.

I was referring to Kamahl16, since he has said that, but I didn't know you shared his opinion.

Power Metal is by far the worst genre. See: Dragonforce, Sonata Arctica, Nightwish, etc.

Starting to really enjoy Thrash Metal, though. Got into Watchtower and Artillery, recently. Maybe pm me some others like those, boys.

Pure power metal is just trash, the only pure power metal band that I've ever heard of that isn't trash is Battleroar.

My favourite at the moment would be Primordial.
