I was just wondering what everyone's favorite 80s metal band is. This is excluding Van Halen or DLR. Mine would definatly be Guns N' Roses, Appetite for Destruction was great.

I was the perfect little '80s metal consumer. Blasted Motley, Ratt and Leppard alongside VH early on. AC/DC was a given, but they were '70s really.
Faded off in mid-'80s not liking Bon Jovi and Poison as much. Probably a Van Hagar funk. GNR helped me though even though Axl is a prick. Metallica helped too, but I don't call them '80s metal.
Late bloomers like Skid Row, Bullet Boys, Firehouse and Badlands are still what I call some of my "new CDs." Guess I'm an old fart!
Alot of decent stuff to be had yet in the bargain bins if you're a gamblin' man. There was some talent in amongst the Aquanet. I still have so many of these forgotten cassettes 'cause they ain't worth anything to anyone else."Float like a butterfly. Sting like a B-52." - DLR=VH=

Metallica for me. I enjoyed what they bring to the 80's.Rumour has it that Van Halen have continued in recent years with a new lead signer, but since there 1985 breakup, nobody involved has ever recaptured that spontaneous cheeseburger magic!
