Favorite 80's-90's rock band….

Pick up “Heavier than Heaven” sometime. I could barely put it down. Although parts of it did seem slightly biased to me.

All about the Ozz, Black Sabbath and Ozzy are easily amoung the groups taht most influenced today’s hard rock and metal, along with Zeppellin, ACDC and some other bands of the time.

But for all around kick-assedness, again, its all about the Ozz.

Also of note-Ozzfest (St. Louis) was friggin amazing.

Also-Judas Priest should be on that list-Sabbath stil beats’m out, but Priest was pretty damned good.

I remember when “smokin’ in the boys room” came out. I never realy smoked but I loved that kind of rebelious stuf.

Motley Crue was my 80s band. I am sure my opinions are different than alot of you because I was in high school. :P

I don’t realy have a favorite now, I do like Judas Priest though… Breakin’ the the law, Breakin’ the the law! :lol: Some good memories there…

“Smokin in the Boy’s Room” is classic.

There are too many good bands from that time period:

It could be anything from Faith No More to Black Flag. Too tough of a question to pin down with one answer.

I haven’t heard too much of that era, I’m stuck in the 60s (the Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel all rock!!!) and newer stuff (Sting, Weird Al, U2, Enya, Norah Jones, Switchfoot). I love U2’s older stuff, though most of their new stuff gets on my nerves, Men At Work is one of my favorites, Gerry Rafferti rocks. You get the picture.

Some favorites of mine of the era were:

U2 (voted)
Thomson Twins
Miami Sound Machine
Banarama
Go-Go’s
Berlin
INXS
Men at Work
Heart
Til Tuesday
Fine Young Cannibals
Chicago
