So much cheese. But cheese can be tasty.
Needs more April Wine & Trooper!

You know, the more I think about it, the more I think I like Van Halen’s s/t over Appetite, maybe I’ll switch it.
And yes, hair metal is a wonderful genre

Yup I think the genre is extremely overrated by guitar players and such. But I have listened to many of these albums and they're all pretty good. No shame in listening to hair metal from time to time, it's a fun genre!
P.S. Guns n' Roses shouldn't be 1st, shame on you hahah :)

If I ever decide, for some strange reason, to give hair metal another chance, I'll be using this chart as a reference point. I'm only familiar with a fraction of these albums, and practically none of them do anything for me whatsoever. But props regardless. You're a better man than I.

Repo's comment is genius. As is this chart. I mean I don't really like hair metal but there's 99 albums I've not listened to here, so maybe I should give it more of a chance
lol jk never

Haha, the simple fact that someone on BEA has actually listened to 100 hair metal albums is hilarious xD
Great work dude, and tbh, I'm sure I'll be checking out some of these at some point in time :D
