Fenixpunk · 07-01-2005, 11:13 AM

Whats your favorite song/band/video/genre/hair-do/whatever of the 80's? (for the few of us that actually remember the 80s)

lots of good 80's rock/metal...for starters how about:
Twisted Sister, Overkill, Helloween, Anthrax, Scorpions, Ratt, Celtic Frost?

I went to high school in the 80's.

I loved (and still do) ska...the music, the fashion, the lifestyle, Dance Craze!, punk..mostly british stuff, the music, the fashion and the lifestyle, The Clash and The Jam changed my life! and some new wave Devo, Depeche Mode, Joy Division and other pioneers of the genre.

The worse thing about the 80's (besides crimped hair, acid washed anything and argyle socks) was Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and all the right wing political brainwashing that was going on..allthough it gave us something to rebel against, there was alot of real fear being drilled into our heads...especially when you're a teenager.

yes! finally, an 80s thread. well i was born in 89 a month before 90 hit so i dont remember anything from the 80s but my dad plays 80s hair band music constantly so its been implanted in my brains.

band: guns n roses
song: paradise city-guns n roses

those are all i know of the 80s. sorry. but i do like other bands besides gnr. def leppard, skid row, white snake. othe stuff that i cant think of. unfortunately im a little too young to know too much about the 80s but at least i know something, eh?
