VAIN and KIX
I never realized how much these bands were loved until Metal Sludge.

There have been negative comments made about Kix and Vain.

Maybe Cinderella?

Black Sabbath.

Between Ozzy, Dio, and Tony Martin.... there's something for sludgers of all types.

DLR-era Van Halen seems to be universally praised with no weak links.

They don’t count as 80s hair metal but I think it still counts as a Sludge band.

Sabbath and VH are good calls.

Most Sludgers seem to like at least some Judas Priest.

And Aerosmith did surprisingly well against VH.

GNR AFD era. No one can say that they're bad. If "Hair Metal", I don't see many saying that Tesla are bad. Oh, and D.A.D.

I thought I was known here as the resident DAD hater. Their late 80s - early 90s singles are for me good examples of what went wrong with hair metal.

I’m sure posters, like exitflagger, will say they hate Hysteria. Probably Pyromania too. Pretend to love the god awful debut.

This should only include bands that have not released any garbage. Complete catalogues that are good. Like the Sex Pistols.

Sabbath, Priest, Van Halen, etc., have all released a couple turds.

I nominate Sebastian Bach, I think all of his solo output is GOOD to great! I know there's Bach haters on here, cuz he's an idiot, but you can't deny that his albums are all GOOD.

Stop. His solo stuff is extremely inconsistent. I'd rather listen to Subhuman Race.

Wowowo. Subhuman Race is one of the worst releases in the genre. VH3/ADKOT awful. Literally zero listenable tracks.

I remember that song title. I remember buying that CD. I remember going through it track by track. I remember finding ZERO decent songs. I remember everyone else feeling the same.

I remember differently. My guitar playing friend also bought the CD and liked several songs.

Somebody go vote 'Thumbs Down' for the Scorpions since they're unanimously liked so far!

His lineups are extremely inconsistent, I'll give you that. (but his bass players all know how to change their own strings!)

Subhuman Race sucks, I'll take any Bach solo over that crap.

I was a huge Skids fan and gave Sebastian's solo stuff a chance on streaming. The only song that still sticks in my mind is Love Is a Bitchslap. I also prefer the gritty production of the Skids albums. His solo albums have little focus with cover tunes mixed in and a variety of outside writers.
