Yep. F&B was definitely their attempt at becoming a "serious band", Unskinny Bop notwithstanding.

Re: Planet of the Apes

They're all streaming on Hulu right now: old ones, reboots, everything. I watched the first one last night. Still brilliant for its time. Watching an astronaut smoke a cigar on board a spaceship is so '60s. Then I watched "Beneath the Planet of the Apes." Holy crap, that was awful. The fi...

No doubt he's racist, his first baby was with a black chick, that's a dead giveaway! Having a black drummer is also a sign of deep-rooted racism...

Michael Monroe and/or Hanoi Rocks? That may be the wrong answer though because I think he/they really are underrated! Did they ever have a gold or platinum record? top 40 hit?

Everything About You. My friend called it the "Poison solo". It's garbage, but it works somehow.

Speaking of Poison solos, Every Rose fits here too. Simple and fits the vibe well.

Lol right - the Trumptards see "CNN" and it's like waving a red cape at a bull. Anyone who's actually paying attention realizes that CNN has always done the point/counterpoint thing and that it has gotten a LOT more conservative-leaning in the past couple years.

He did not come up in Heavy Metal, but rather it basically came to him in that particular 80's MT...
