Well I guess that makes Blue Oyster Cult and half the other bands on this list pop bands as well.

I don't like K.I.S.S. or Ted Nugent, but they are two of the biggest names in 70's hard rock, who contributed to the development of metal.

Nah. Strip away the Marshalls, the makeup, and the stage show and KISS was way more pop rock than hard rock or metal based solely on the songs. I put them in the same camp as Cheap Trick in that regard.

Well that's the thing, you can't strip away the Marshalls or the make up, that was KISS at their core; and they are definitely one of the biggest influences on glam metal. Sure they wrote party ballads like Motley Crue and Van Halen, but the latter is much more metal to me than Blue Oyster Cult, whom I like very much.

Wait a second it just occurred to me. Where the hell is Alice Cooper!!!!

It saddens me greatly that Motley Crue is remembered as being as being a band that wrote party ballads.

Yeah, their avant-jazz albums are largely forgotten.
