In the 80's, did you like hair metal or British heavy metal better ?

Hair metal would be mostly U.S. based bands such as Ratt, Motley Crue, Poison

British metal bands would include Judas Priest %26amp; Iron Maiden

I preferred the British style...the lyrics were more interesting %26amp; the musical style tended to be more melodic.

I always thought the Hair Bands were more about their look than their music. The British guys were the more intense and creative musicians, and relied more on their sound than hair.

No disrespect to the Crue or Ratt, but I always liked Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, UFO, Motorhead, Michael Schenker Group, Scorpions, and Uli Jon Roth.....and still do.

Wow this is the tough question to answer, cause i like them both. Here my opinion :

Hair metal is a good music in genre of metal music, but what they offer to all us are seem so simple, their music seem too "easy listening" metal music. Even i love them it very much. Their music is so simple, they dressed are so special, their artwork are so specific. If i do dig their music deeply, i can get boring soon, i am not saying that their skill are no good enough or something like that, but they sometime make the same sound each other. So if we hear one band then the other it seem so the same.

But british style is different, their music are so amazing to hear again and again, if we dig deep to their music then we can't find the ending of their music, they are so complex. They got something that no other metal music have it, the unique metal sound. They can give you the heaviness, speedy metal music and complex metal music in the same time, but the music is so very nice for us to enjoy. The bands like what you said, and also the other like Jaguar, saxon, elixir, marshall law, satan etc are really really genius stuff to listen.

So i prefer to choose british style is better.

Hail to you to love them also. Keep the BRITISH STEEL screamin'
