It Came From the Eightees...

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:10 PM

Which one do you still enjoy the most today?

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:13 PM

Kodos likes polls!

I promise this is the last one of the day!

scooper · 01-31-2003, 03:13 PM

Back then it was Motley Crue. However, now it's GNR by a long shot.

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:17 PM

Damn it! I spelled "eighties" wrong...

Fonzie · 01-31-2003, 03:27 PM

Def Leppard's early 80's music is tops for me (of those on this list, that is). I still listen to "Pyromania" every once in a while.

Van Halen would be a close second. Oh how I long for the days when Eddie was constantly drunk!

Sub-poll. Sammy or Dave?

My answer: Sammy.

Marmel · 01-31-2003, 03:30 PM

Woohoo! us eardrum poker outers are leading the way.

In the day, the music was good, but since you added the word NOW...... *sigh*

Fritz · 01-31-2003, 03:31 PM

in the day the music listed in the poll was crap (with the exception of the pre sammy van halen)

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:31 PM

I knew the eardrums option was the clear favorite to win. Lotsa haters out there!

I unabashedly love some of these groups to this day, including their newer albums.

Marmel · 01-31-2003, 03:32 PM

Fritz, could you please provide a cite for the fact that all that music was crap? thanks.

not even close.

Marmel · 01-31-2003, 03:37 PM

Yeah, really Kodos. Its one thing to still like 80's music (2 decades old), it is another thing all-together to think Sammy was better. Poor, poor Kodos.

Ben E Lou · 01-31-2003, 03:38 PM

All I can say to this thread is....

Rise up gather 'round. Rock this place to the ground.
Burn it up. Let's go for broke. Watch the night go up in smoke.
Rock on. Rock on.
Drive me crazier. No serenade. No fire brigade.
Just-a pyromania
Come on.
What do you want?
What do you want?
I want rock 'n' roll.
Alright
Long live rock 'n' roll...

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:39 PM

Perhaps we should judge them on solo careers. Sammy clearly has been more successful than Dave. And Sammy can actually sing.

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 03:40 PM

You bet'cha!
Long live Rock 'n' Roll!

HornedFrog Purple · 01-31-2003, 03:43 PM

I felt bad for Poison so I voted for them.

Fonzie · 01-31-2003, 03:44 PM

At the time I preferred the Sammy version, but in retrospect I'd have to go with the Diamond Dave era. Partly because they were a better "party" band, but largely because Eddie changed his guitar sound after Sammy joined. For me, Eddie kind of lost his edge at that point.

BTW, have any of you David Lee Roth lately? He looks absolutely [vomit] hideous [/vomit]! Time to give in to the hairline, Dave.

Do NOT under any circumstances buy Poison's last album, "Hollyweird". It's even worse than a Nirvana album.

Ksyrup · 01-31-2003, 04:21 PM

I always thought that as musicians, Tesla was a cut above the rest of the 80's hair bands. I mean, look at those guys. An 80's hair band that ugly HAD to be good to make it!

Qwikshot · 01-31-2003, 04:24 PM

Yeah, yeah, yeah...hair bands were just bad (save Van Halen)...I mean record companies were signing guys up just because of their hair, seriously...all had their heyday...I think Nirvana made a lot of people, the not so pretty people, the regular people, identify with music instead of the hedonistic ritual that was rock and roll...but what do I know, Cobain blew his brains out and as I far as I know all of these bands members are alive (save Def and Warrant), go figure...

Eighties music to me was Talking Heads, Cars, Billy Idol, Michael Jackson...

sabotai · 01-31-2003, 04:26 PM

I'm not so sure that I'd include GNR as a pop metal band...

Also, Kodos, since the eardrum pokers are way in the lead, it seems Cobain did a lot of good too. If it weren't for Nirvana, Poison and the rest of those freaks might have gone a few more years.

If I had to go through junior high school without Nirvana and Alice in Chains, I might have made school shootings an early nineties thing / late eighties thing.

Kodos · 01-31-2003, 04:28 PM

Poking eardrums is only beating the pop metal groups individually. Overall, pop metal is getting more positive votes than negative. So there!

andy m · 01-31-2003, 04:28 PM

Book of Dweezel 12:21

The men dressed like cheap women and made a ruckus with their instruments and wailed. For 10 years they ruckused and wailed. And after ten years of ruckusing and wailing God sent Vanilla Ice to wreak vengeance upon those who would ruckus and wail and dress as cheap women. Vanilla Ice sampled and condemned the ruckusers and wailers to play only in the titty bars and he banished their works to K-Tel, and God was pleased.

Gotta side with the alien on this one.

With most of the between 22 and 33, it doesn't surprise that there is a dichotomy between 80s music and 90s music. It seems that the bias is whatever the music was during your teen years. That's why for me, it's the music of the 70s (pre-disco).

In all, there's nothing wrong with 80s bands listed, you had to be there and judge them in their own time.

As far as how they age, any band that was playing before 1993 are certainly better than any that started since then.

Hey, Kodos- even if everyone else is turning on ya- I'm with you. And I even agree with you on the Nirvana point. Then again, I have every Halen album made (even that piece of crap coaster with Gary Cherone or whatever the hell his name was) because that was when music was fun.

Don't get me wrong- I have some Nirvana in my collection as well as some of the other big groups from the early 90s (Pearl Jam, STP, Soundgarden, Alice in Chain, etc) but the music just isn't as fun as 80's music. Also, I still hate the fact that the 90's were the decade of the giant flushing sound from Metallica's music.

Ultimately, Kurt Cobain's death and subsequent immortalization by many music fans lead to the splintering of rock music, knocking it from the place of dominance and allowed for the 90s to be a decade where rap, a resurgence of country, rap-rock, and now manufactured groups (britney, backstreet, et al) claim a larger following than they otherwise would have. Many consider this a good thing, but I prefer that hard rock style of music, and the pickings have been quite slim lately for fans.

With all due respect there was dark music in the 80's as well, Joy Division, The Smiths, the Cure which added a murky undersurface to the joyful rock sounds from the West. Even the Talking Heads, Wire, Blondie, Rolling Stones, the Ramones, the Police, Queen had darker undertones, that's pretty much what I listened too...my friends listened to Warrant, Stryper, Evil Toys, Extreme, and all the like...I'm not saying it was bad, it just wasn't my thing...

Actually I remember vividly when I was like 11 or 12 wandering the music section and a group of goth chicks that were like 14 or 15 were hunting for the latest Cannibal Corpse...the one screamed at me in anger/anguish, the cute one apologized to me underneath her neon hair...

I grew up to MTV, I had Thriller when I was in grade school. For the longest time I had to absorb my father's love of the Rolling Stones and the classic rock albums, my mom was an 70's easy rock sounds like Gerry Rafferty, Stealers Wheel, etc...plus she loved Barry Manilow...and I was stuck listening to Mr. Mister, Cameo, Michael Jackson, Billy Idol, Cyndy Lauper, etc...

Now I have over 700 CD's you'll find anything to AC/DC to Warren Zevon there...

Honolulu Blue · 01-31-2003, 06:22 PM

I voted for Def Leppard, though I slightly prefer the sweet sounds of RATT (not a choice, for shame).

Van Halen is all right; little use for any of the other bands listed.

Sonic Youth

Husker Du
Fugazi

sabotai · 02-01-2003, 10:10 AM

Tasan, I'm with you. How could you leave out Skid Row? They were the best hair band, no question about it.

"Don't get me wrong- I have some Nirvana in my collection as well as some of the other big groups from the early 90s (Pearl Jam, STP, Soundgarden, Alice in Chain, etc) but the music just isn't as fun as 80's music.

Ugh, don't remind me. Part of the 80's for me was Metallica. I still get a sick feeling over what they've become.

But all in all, the 80's were, imo, the worst musical decade ever. I like 70's music. I like 60's music. I like 50's. (Chuck Berry pwns you all). I even go back a lot longer ago. I love classical music.

But I hate 80's music. It wasn't fun. It was annoying. Yeah, there are songs here and there that I liked (When a problem comes along, you must whip it!), but most were just...ugh.

"Don't get me wrong- I have some Nirvana in my collection as well as some of the other big groups from the early 90s (Pearl Jam, STP, Soundgarden, Alice in Chain, etc) but the music just isn't as fun as 80's music. Also, I still hate the fact that the 90's were the decade of the giant flushing sound from Metallica's music." Ugh, don't remind me. Part of the 80's for me was Metallica. I still get a sick feeling over what they've become. But all in all, the 80's were, imo, the worst musical decade ever. I like 70's music. I like 60's music. I like 50's. (Chuck Berry pwns you all). I even go back a lot longer ago. I love classical music. But I hate 80's music. It wasn't fun. It was annoying. Yeah, there are songs here and there that I liked (When a problem comes along, you must whip it!), but most were just...ugh.
