?We?re not ashamed of a little hairspray and makeup. We?ve always said it takes a real man to wear makeup.??Bret Michaels, Poison (1988)

There was a time?not so long ago?when pomp and spandex dominated MTV and pop radio playlists. American Hair Metal visually celebrates this orgy of flamboyance, androgyny, and animal magnetism, of big-haired alpha males and the beautiful women who surrounded them.

Hundreds of striking photographs are surrounded by hedonistic ephemera from bands like Poison, Cinderella, Mötley Crüe, Skid Row, and Stryper, and wild interview quotes from major players such as David Lee Roth, Jon Bon Jovi, Sebastian Bach, Tommy Lee, Nikki Sixx, Bret Michaels, Don Dokken, and a good number of unsung heroes.

Interest in hair metal is currently exploding?witness the barrage of VH1 specials, arena-level revival tours, and reissue compilations that are even today best-selling CDs.

American Hair Metal

If you are a child of the 80's like I am, you will love this book!! It brought back a lot of good memories! There were some truly awesome bands that came out of the 80's. I think you will enjoy this book!

Bang You Hair

If you were there, or were listening, or are still there and listening, this book will put a smile on your face; Page after page of quality, colorful pictures and highly amusing quotes by some of the biggest bands of the era; The only thing I wished was that it included more pictures, esp. since there is a huge list at the end of the book w/80's artists not pictured at all, and their one big song. This would include bands like Badlands, Helix, Shotgun Messiah, and Smashed Gladys....To think this book could have been twice the size only makes me think of things that could have been...

But this is no skimpy collection; A great book at a great price, LOTS of pics suitable for framing if you were so inclined...

And if you weren't ever into metal, there's still plenty to make fun of.

Man, did I really used to dress like that?

AN '80's TIME CAPSULE

Dying to relive, recapture, or just plain reminisce about your youth? Have I got a book for you. While reminiscent of Hollywood Rocks! (which focuses exclusively on the '80's Hollywood scene), American Hair Metal encompasses a much broader scope. It includes all of the de rigueur L.A./California bands while adding East Coast and international ones into the mix. It even throws in a couple of female rockers to boot. Don't expect any indepth bios on any of the bands. It's mainly a collection of photos and quotes. You may not have heard of all of the bands but the major players are all represented here (though a little light on the Dokken, G N'R, and Great White if you ask me). So tease it up, turn it up, and get ready to rock with Steven Blush's American Hair Metal.
