I've heard people give this genre a lot of crap, saying the GLAM part stands for "Gay L.A. Metal". To be fair, glam metal has some of the most wicked solos in metal. It's just too bad that gets overshadowed by the cheesy lyrics and the garish costumes.
There aren't many deep songs in glam metal. I personally can only stand it when i'm driving around somewhere. If you're in the mood to listen about sex and drugs, then go for this.
Anyway to all the people calling it homosexual...well I agree with one of the previous posters on here. The guys in these glam metal bands probably got laid hundreds of more times than you ever will. And look up some of the lead singers bios. They've dated some of the most beautuful women in the world. And you call that gay?
Sure you can bash someone for their horrible style, but calling them gay for it, makes you an asshat.
On a side note:
Motley Crue, Van halen, Poison, and Whitesnake are some of the more famous glam metal bands.
