- Back in the 80's there used to be a term called "pop metal", which was what was generally used for bands like Dokken, White Lion, etc. I have no problem with using that label because it doesn't have the negative connotations that are associated with the term hair metal.
My buddies and I used to call it "Commercial Metal"... We just called it "metal" or "heavy metal". Some of it was fast, some of it was slow, some of it was on the lighter side of heavy, and some of it was heavier than heavy, but it was all metal. | |

| I voted for Warren Demartini. Back in 1984, Ratt "Out of the Cellar" was pretty amazing, unique, and imho, it has stood the test of time. It's still a great album. | |
