Yeah, it all depends on what the universe of bands is to determine the midpoint. Midpoint of popular bands, or a band that straddles the line between the most popular/best and the bottom half which is mostly unknown/mediocre? For me, Poison and Spin Doctors are too accomplished/popular to be the midpoint (although 90s pop/rock is quite a large pool compared to 80s hair metal). I'd go with the large pool of bands and pick a band like Trixter for 80s hair metal - recognizable name, pretty forgettable, no major hits, never rose above mediocre. For the rest of 80s metal, I'd go with a band like Armored Saint - on the cusp of joining the big names but never really rose to the occasion.
