Pattern of this thread:

1. Nick posts something about hating grunge and loving hair metal. Within these posts, as well as YouTube video links, are usually the phrases "grunge bands can't play", "grunge is ****", "Hair metal rocks", and "Cobain was ****."

2. Someone posts challenging one or all of these contentions, laying out reasonable rebuttals.

3. Nick posts again, repeating what he has said, without responding to the points raised by the previous poster.

4. Another, or the same, poster tries again

5. Repeat step 3

6. Someone points out to Nick that he is not answering any of the points put forward

7. Repeat step 3

8. People begin to laugh at Nick's assertions

9. Repeat step 3

10. People ignore Nick and begin discussing among themselves

11. Repeat step 3

I joined this forum to discuss about music. As a fan of "hair metal" , I like discussing its rise and fall. What do you want from me? Man I miss the 80s/early 90s good times and good memories. I grew up on heavy metal. love hair metal. Nirvana was **** and I held them responsible for the destruction of rock music. God damn there was some good ****ing rock music in the 80s-early 90s. Rock music was butchered in 90s by media and people who were jealous of rock music's popularity. Late 80s/early 90s for me was the best years ever partying and getting ****ed up and getting laid i miss them days.

A sensible solution. I hate how those things confront me with my own intellectual mediocrity.

It’s true grit. It’s not even a very interesting debate but he’s making a legit play for thread of the year.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_uh8XjgLTE Talk about Supergroups, we could probably throw them in the mix for best Supergroup. I saw them for their first record, they kicked ass. Every so often, I'll read all these "critics" who trash the record, yet, as I said, I've always enjoyed the record. I like both Damn Yankees albums. About two years ago Classic Rock magazine confirmed what many fans had long suspected -- that Damn Yankees was indeed a manufactured "supergroup." Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, and Ted Nugent were all adrift at the time career wise and none of them knew each other prior to DY's formation; it was A&R demi-god John Kalodner who had the idea of putting the three of them together.

Nuge was grunge until Scream Dream

Then he was avant-garde

It doesn't make sense to blame one genre for the decline of another. Music does not kill music. Blame gatekeepers like MTV. Also, it's very conceivable that people were just, like, over glam metal, man.

A new generation, a new sensibility. The younger brother doesn't listen to the same music his big brother did. The younger brother grows to be a teenager and starts finding his own music, the big brother gets a job, a wife, kids and stops listening to glam metal or much music at all, since that's what tends to happen with "normies" as life goes on.

Any mainstream style dies. It's inevitable.
