5:23 Picture of Kiss when describing 80's Glam Metal bands? By the way, when speaking about the genesis of Thrash Metal, the band Diamond Head needs to me mentioned. Metallica were partially a Diamond Head cover band, when they became known in the scene. And their influence in the riffs and solos of Thrash bands, specially Metallica but not only, is obvious.
yes indeed. the face paint, the music and the big hair were all expressions of the Glam movement, even though a bit darker than most. If you take a look at twisted sister, they were so closely related in look and sound minus the face paint. They just wore women's make up and black leather instead.
@@PoliticalDrain I'm not a fan of Kiss or Glam Metal, to be honest. But I knew Kiss were originally a 70's band, and had no idea they were considered "Glam Metal." But yeah, the all mighty wikipedia agrees with you lol. I guess I learned something new today about Metal History. Thanks for clarifying it.
@@HeathenDance that's awesome to hear man, that's the whole reason we started making these Spotlight videos, to hopefully teach interested people 1 or 2 things they may not have known, or thought about before. (yes by the way This is our other channel) ..lol
This was really interesting. As someone relatively new to metal, it was great to get an overview of how metal is evolved, and I enjoyed hearing about the differences between the groups' approaches. I think, however, that they missed big in not including symphonic metal.
@jojop6387 those who got famous are rarely the people who actually moved things forward. So if you are upset that I pointed out that citing big names is not the same as citing revolutionary artists, maybe you need to take a deeper look as well.
