    For the last few days i have been listening to alot of 80's rock, and its not that bad (still not grunge ;)) actually :D

    Mine are pretty cliche, GNR ;) and Motley Crue....

    GNR, Whitesnake, and Van Halen are about the only 80's music I can stomach.

    Tears for Fears.

    Seriously. That's about it.

    The 80s was the worst music decade ever. FACT.

    Not one vote for Metallica?

    Losers.

    The 80's is when Metallica was badass.... 90's to now... Not so much.

    some great bands were around thru the 80's... van halen, aerosmith and even more.... are you talkin about bands that are still around???

    of bands that rose to prominence during that era (and are still around), Queensryche... imho, geoff tate is one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time, I'd rate him in the top 5 along with Freddie Mercury and Robert Plant

    Metallica is a big 'un... you gotta give U2, Def Leppard, SRV, Quiet Riot, Whitesnake, and The Police
