Hey what's your favorite one, Mine's Bowie.

Fenixpunk 07-25-2005 10:29 PM

Id have to say NY Dolls from that list, although i do love me some slade

Trauma 07-25-2005 10:49 PM

On the list it was a tough choice between NY Dolls and David Bowie but I chose Bowie in the end.


But right now I'm contemplating why in the hell you don't have this guy on there!!!
Double-You-Tee-Eff, buddy??!??

Yeah, but he had solo stuff too.

Sorry about forgetting Gary Glitter, oh well.

Imonlydancing 07-27-2005 04:15 AM

I'd have to go for Bowie on this one. 'Hunky dory' is my favorite album also Ledzeprules.

dog 07-27-2005 04:42 AM

walkin' dude 07-27-2005 05:46 AM

This man is the glam guy of ALL TIME.

Gary Glitter

He's also a convicted sex offender, but don't let it put you off........

"Do you wanna be in my gang......."

No thanks....

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-27-2005 08:29 AM

Where`s Hanoi Rocks ?

musicparle.co.uk 07-28-2005 03:08 AM

what about queen? IMO they would beat all of them, although i like t-rex and slade aswell.

Zygomycota 07-28-2005 10:25 AM

I didn't put in Queen because, in my humble opinion, they aren't that much glam, just really theatrical. Sorry, man.

Josephine 07-29-2005 04:40 AM

Yeah, Bowie is best. Although I like Queen, too. Anyway I had to choose...
I love Bowie's old stuff, like "Hunky Dory". "Queen Bitch" is my fav.

dead_ringer 08-17-2005 01:38 PM

motley crue are a great glam band so are poison

beardovstars 10-02-2005 11:23 PM

Hard to not pick t-rex but hunky dory is an all time fave and ziggy is also classic.

boo boo 10-03-2005 10:07 AM

No Queen?


David Bowie out of those options.

R u L e B r E a K e r 10-04-2005 04:57 AM

David Bowie

dog 10-04-2005 06:03 AM

^ugh giant signature...not too pleasing.

R u L e B r E a K e r 10-04-2005 08:05 AM

whats wrong with my sig u like it :D

Scratchy7929 02-04-2009 04:29 AM

Bowie wasn't Glam really - he was genre hopper.First Beat etc.,then Blue eyed soul,progressive pop (space oddity),Glam,proto punk(rebel rebel etc.),rock & soul ,dance pop(lets dance),proto new wave (sound & vision),Experimental/minimal,Experimental alternative rock (tin machine)etc etc etc

Grunge_Junkie 02-17-2009 10:53 AM

iggy pop all the way.

crash_override 02-20-2009 10:52 PM

T Rex??? Glam Rock?

Whatever, I voted for them.

Koala 02-24-2009 06:35 PM

David Bowie, with Sweet in a close second.

Uh... yeah, lmao. I'm pretty sure T-Rex invented glam rock.

I went with Roxy Music just because everyone was voting for Bowie (whom I like equally).

jaguar ride 02-25-2009 05:51 PM

Bowie.

and isn't Lou Reed glam? why isn't he on here?

rwyncaruvegas37 02-26-2009 09:28 AM

From that list, nobody. Where's Alice Cooper? He's glam rock!

7gaugejames 02-26-2009 09:31 AM

*** on t-rex!!!!
 
I love all glam.... favorites change, if i'm in love it's always bowie, nostalgic ? then t-rex.... right now i wish it was 1976 again.:band:

Big_D_007 02-26-2009 11:50 AM

Motley crue is my favorite glam band

:whythis:

alice cooper is not glam though i myself wouldn't know how to classify is genre. but not glam. he was too dark to be glam.

as much as i hate to quote metallica, even lars classified motley crue as glam. which they were hair metal i agree. but the makeup and the outfits definately would classify them as glam. in my own opinion.

Unknown Soldier 07-31-2011 08:45 AM

What no Alice Cooper or The Tubes on this list:confused: This thread needs to be revamped, as there are a whole load of great artists who deserve to be checked out.

almauro 07-31-2011 11:07 AM

Bowie is the no-brainer, but he ditched the glam scene after diamond dogs. Second choice is Roxy Music, but I see them more of an art rock band/prog-band. The Dolls...what can you say about the Dolls other than they were great. Too Much Too Soon is one of my favorite records of all time. Not with standing all of this, I still voted for Mott the Hoople, which is the band I have the biggest soft spot for.

T. Rex (Marc Bolan) is like the Godfather of Glam Rock In my opinion. Bowie, Queen, Kiss, etc.
Motley Crue is my favorite "popular" glam rock band. A Good solid rock band.

Mondo Bungle 07-31-2011 09:20 PM

That's super hard, I chose T. Rex. Then Bowie, Sweet, NYD.

Does Alice Cooper count?
