Glam metal, also known as hair metal or pop metal, is a subgenre of heavy metal, which features pop-influenced hooks and guitar riffs, and borrows heavily from the fashion and image of 1970s glam rock.
Early glam metal evolved directly from the glam rock movement of the 1970s, as visual elements taken from acts such as T. Rex, the New York Dolls, and David Bowie were fused with the decidedly more heavy metal leaning and theatrical acts such as Alice Cooper and Kiss. The first examples of this fusion began appearing in the late 1970s and early 1980s in the United States, particularly on the Los Angeles Sunset Strip music scene.
Bands Include: Van Halen, Mötley Crüe, Dokken, Def Leppard, Night Ranger, Quiet Riot, Ratt, Bon Jovi, Twisted Sister, Stryper, Poison, Cinderella, Whitesnake, Guns & Roses, Warrant, Skid Row, Metanoia, Anthrax
