Scorpions- one last sting!!

We all remember the hard n heavy music of the 1980's metal scene. Well, there was one band in particular that was already kickin' butt waaay before any of those poser so-called metal bands.(Guns n roses, this means u.) Their name-The Scorpions!!! They were the ultimate inspiration for other German metal bands who followed in their footsteps. (Accept and DIE TITEN HOSEN, just to name a few.) The were arguably one of the most successful bands of the 1980's with songs like "Rock you like a hurricane." Also, they are one of the most under-rated bands EVER. Other metal bands have basically tarnished everything cool about metal. Metal isn't just about getting glammed out with make-up and high heels. Metal is really about hard n heavy music that is more than capable of tearing out your speaker cones and giving you major migranes.

For those who like the fake-metal, you're in luck. The Scorpions are embarking on their official farewell tour this summer. So, when their done, there will practically be no metal left. By that, I mean no good metal like back in the 1980's. Guns n roses has gone POP, so there will be no more head-banging. You should be ASHAMED!!

Glam metal rocks!!!

In the late 1970's and 1980's, there was a lot of good music floating around. But, there was one genre that was the most popular. That genre was Glam metal. Glam metal was a type of music that was just like regular metal, but everyone in the band had ridiculously long hair. A few of the most popular Glam metal bands are Skid Row, Nelson, Guns n' Roses, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Poison, FireHouse, W.a.s.p, L.A Guns, Motley Crue, Winger, Twisted Sister, Def Leppard,
Bon Jovi, and, Europe.
As you know, there are a lot of Glam Metal bands out there. I suggest listneing to all of them.
Because looks and music do go together. (As long as they are both good.)
