Yay! One of my favourite times for music, although i wasnt born to see it or hear it. The band I choose is Journey and the song is Dont Stop Believing. The song is just epic, I cant really explain it in words, you nust have to listen to it and enjoy.
well unfortunatly the 80's were hair metal. and i dont like hair metal.
bands like: poisen the police motely crue and others such
are not some of my favorites or the best
alot of good punk came out of the 80's though like: suicidal tendecies operation ivy black flag minutemen Dead kennedys Husker Du Bad Brains
i could go on for awhile
but ya hiphop also had alot of great stuff out in the 80's infact most of the best was then erik b. and rakim run dmc slick rick big daddy kane NWA (correct me if im wrong) beastie boys grand masta flash and the furious five
great stuff, then you got your U2 and all that junk
but i mean sometimes i think the bad stuff (in my oppinion) outshines the amazing stuff from the 80's. cause i hate hair metal and most arena rock in general. to cheesy.
guys. you cant NOT mention U2. what U2 has done has made them probably the second greatest rock band of all time, next to the beatles of course. and probably the greatest band of the 80's
Well, coming from the metal/ underground standpoint... I'm going to go with Metallica. They redefined metal for ages to come, and I don't know of a band today that doesn't claim metallica as an influence. The pretty much shaped metal into something that parents and old people would hate, adding fuel to the fire of the counter- culture and rebellion of the time. Coming from the mouths of a lot of popular metal bands:
Black Sabbath may have invented heavy metal, but Metallica perfected it.
The only good band that made it through the 80's was pink floyd. every other band was ripping off eachothers riffs and singing like girls about drugs or sex. Pretty sad point in music if u ask me.

I take it you've never listened to Metallica, Iron Maiden, Voivod, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Pantera? But if you haven't listened to any songs by any of those bands, you must live under a rock or you've been deprived of good music.
