      I mean, Dr. Feelgood was a huge success and produced by Bob Rock. Its sonically their best album and produced 5-6 huge hits.
      Basically, they went a bit more commercial over the years and was never as raw or heavy as their first two albums. I always prefer their earlier stuff. But, Mick and Tommy always kill it, regardless of the era.
      There is always something better about less production value. And I get that commercial success doesn't mean greatness. I'd put up Shout at the Devil against anything. Motley Crue is certainly the best of the "glam" bands.

    The thing is that the Crue were sort of the originators of 80s hair metal, or at least the first to make it really big. Really their first two albums (this and Shout at the Devil) had that rough feel, with more than a hint of punk in their sound. As they blew up, their sound became more smooth and produced even as they were followed by the likes of Poison, Ratt, and so on and so on.
    Really the easiest way to put it is that early Crue was meant to be played in a club full of wild, angry young people. Later Crue was meant to be played in stadiums to 80,000 fans.

      Even though Van Halen was the earlier band to explode off of Sunset, after Crue, you can see that even their hair got more "processed" than it was in the late 70s. And not just Dave. They started getting hair enhancements. Check Mike Anthony in Hot For Teacher. His hair was curled up pretty nice.

      Best description I have seen. They transformed from Whiskey Sunset Strip to Corporate Radio. I don't blame them for cashing in, and even their later smoother sound was good music at times, but it's really the first couple of albums that remained raw and unrefined the way I liked them best. One of my all time favorite concerts was on the Girls Girls Girls tour, when GNR was opening for them. The difference was palatable. GNR was fresh and raw like the Crue had been a few years before, they felt dangerous. Hell they were dangerous they threw a jack Danial's bottle at us in the audience ..lol Then the Crue came out and did one hell of a show spinning drumkit and all, but it was a little too refined and produced after GNRs set. It was entertaining to be sure though. However, it was clear though that the bad boy crown was being passed.

    First album punk meets metal meets glam. Nothing had really ever sounded like this before (1981). I discovered it while riding a bus to school, and a kid near me was playing it on his boom box! And on that same bus was an unknown actress named Gina Davis. She had more makeup on than anyone I had ever seen, and still could have used more. I believe She may have been in her way to audition for tootsie. Which was her first role!!

    Regardless of how they looked, or what became of them later, this song is without a doubt as Heavy Metal as anything by Judas Priest, Saxon, Accept, Diamond Head, or Savage at the time. It isn't even that different than a song like "Hit The Lights" by Metallica. Yeah glam metal (later called hair metal as a derogatory term) oversaturated the Metal thing in the 80s blah blah blah, but THIS is exceptional and deserves to be recognized as actual Heavy Metal, not mere glam metal.

    This is very early Crüe, their first album in 1981 "Too fast for love " and there is actually a video to this song, Live Wire.
    Mötley Crüe has always had this amazing special sound with Mick Mars on leadguitar. Not quite heavy metal but really good rock'n roll with blues in it too. Mick brought the blues in so many of the songs. I think this song is very inspired by punkrock aswell. A big mix of different kind of music has always inspired the bassplayer Nikki Sixx who wrote most of their songs. On every album they changed their looks and the sound ( a bit) but they always made really good music, good rock'n roll, that's why they are my favorite band.
    Check out a great song called "Primal Scream " from early 90,s with an amazing riff and some of their music a little later. They changed their frontman for one album. He,s called John Corabi and they made a really great album with him too, with a totally different sound. Check out a song called "Hooligans Hollyday". Later songs with Vince Neil back in the band : Affraid, Find myself, Anarchy (Sex Pistols)
    From the 00,s : Saints of Los Angeles, "The Dirt" with Mgk.
    And they are still going strong. Big Stadium Tour with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett in 2022.
    Check out some live performance from Mötley aswell, from their "Carnival of Sin " tour in 2005. Just amazing pyrotecnics, sound and stageshow. But they always had that.

Don't try to tell people who were THERE... what it WAS. Put your little controller down, and Learn something from people who were actually ALIVE back then.

I don't need to educate myself in what I directly experienced in the 70's and 80s. The fact you still won't give up on calling the Crue metal says everything that needs to be said on who doesn't know wtf metal is. Dio..is Metal. The Crue isn't. I might give them one or two songs being borderline. "Looks that Kill" maybe but even it isn't as metal as early Judas Preists - Sad Wings of Destiny, which was just entering the metal era barely almost a decade before. By the time the Crue was out metal was pretty well defined. It was only after the Hard Rock scene was fizzling and metal was taking over they tried to rename glam rock, into "hair metal" terms used after the fact to stay relevant. However overwhelmingly everything on their playlist was hard rock with catchy pop hooks. It was good music, but really doesn't fit the metal genre. Did they live metal? Maybe. I won't argue that, but I could think of some country singers and likely pop artists that lived the metal lifestyle, but didn't sing or play one metal track. They certainly opened for some honest to God metal bands as well. I was at the Motley Crue Concerts as well as Metal concerts in the 80's not an armchair critic or an internet poser who feels the need to talk smack from his basement. I think I may have saw Nikki spin over me at the arena, at which point I thought this is a pretty damn cool HARD ROCK show. But to put them in the catagory of Dio? WTF? Your metal credentials are destroyed by an opinion that would illicit groans and cringe back in the day. The fool you daily suffer is yourself and your false bravado and childish arrogance. I got ass hairs that have seen more 80's metal concerts then you likely have. My guess is that you were still a rug rat watching your "Crue metal" on VH1, and if not how very sad that for 4 decades you have kept to an argument that nearly NO ONE in heavy metal agrees with. Motley Crue is a fantastic hard rock band though.

I was 18, and so ready for the change Motley Crue brought to the scene. I didn't care that people felt they had "lost" me. The punk edged rawness of this album made me feel at home. Definitely watch the video. It may have gotten banned for a little while, because of the swords, fire, "blood", and totally a 180° from the majority of videos out there at the time. 🤘🔥💖

    Crue evolved over the 80s, from this raw metal style to definitely more radio-friendly hard rock -- for better or worse, that's up to the 'beholder'. All I know is that this album and Shout At The Devil are my 2 favorite. The rest have some good songs to be sure ("All in the name of Rock", "Kickstart My Heart", etc.), but these are more pure metal. When they played Seattle on the 'Shout...' tour back then, the very next day fully half of my junior high was wearing Motley Crue shirts, hats, bandannas, you name it...they made it big off that album, make no mistake about it.

    (Short Metal History) The “mother” genre was Heavy Metal from the beginning of the eighties (some bands: Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Saxon, Scorpions, AC/DC, Van Halen, Kiss, Accept, Ozzy, Metallica, Megadeth, Helloween, Merciful Fate, Venom, Yngwie Malmsteen) also with strong Rock’n’Roll, Hard Blues, Hard Rock, Progressive Rock, Punk-Rock heritage from the 70’s (some bands: Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, UFO, Thin Lizzy) In the late eighties you already had new sub-genres of Heavy Metal like Speed Metal, Speed Thrash, Thrash, Thrash Hard Core, Black Metal - this more extreme (some bands: Slayer, Anthrax, Overkill, Running Wild, Suicidal Tendencies, Metal Church, Kreator, Pantera, Sepultura). In the same period, other softer sub-genres were Hard’n’Heavy, Hard-FM, Heavy Rock and Glam-Rock (Loverboy, Aldo Nova, Bon Jovi, Europe, Pretty Maids, TNT, LA Guns, Motley Crue, Poison, Tesla, Great White, Dokken, Joe Satriani). The differences between these sub-genres were little. The sound became more adapted for TV and Radio broadcasting. In the 90’s and in early 2000’s, this Metal genre family tree grew even more with sub-genres like Progressive Metal, Symphonic Metal, Death Metal, Doom Metal, Gothic Metal, New Metal, Alternative Metal, Power Metal and so on (some bands: Dream Theater, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Blind Guardian, Epica, Candlemass, Evanescence, Craddle of Filth, Opeth, Ayreon, Slipknot, Dragon Force). Motley Crue were initially an Heavy Metal band in sound and looks. Then they evolved into LA Glam Rock (some people name it today as Glam Metal). Don’t confuse it with the 70’s Glam-Rock from UK. Both Glam Rock genres have to do with exuberance, flamboyance and the shocking effect of performances, looks and lyrics. What we call today as Metal is a long story with more than 50 years.

    Crue's first two albums were very much traditional heavy metal, at a time when metal/pop crossover was not only extremely common but guaranteed massive record sales. We like to sit back now and say "Motley Crue was doing this or that" because of all of the sub-genres that exist now, and distinguishing what is "rock" and "metal" has become a cottage industry of sorts all over the internet, but back then things were not as clear-cut!

People have to consider when these records came out. Back then everyone who liked Ozzy, Maiden, Priest, etc were also into Crew. Especially Too Fast and Shout.
