Warning: If you're a "it doesn't have death metal screamo vocals" kind of fan, just skip this thread, we don't need your comments. This is good old fashioned 80's fun metal.
Sweden and to some extent Finland is the new 80's LA. There are some bands there that are putting out some seriously great hair/glam metal. Over there, it is now called Sleaze Metal.
A little primer and some examples:
Crashdiet has been one of the biggest "Sleaze" bands over there for a number of years. Long story short, they have had a problem with lead singers(death/borrowed from other bands, etc). Here is a good example of Crashdiet, a song called In The Raw. If you didn't know better, you might sware this was Motely Crue in the mid 80's. Nope, it's late 2007:
This was Crashdiet's 2nd CD, borrowing a the singer from a band called Reckless Love. People thought he was crazy for leaving Crashdiet to go back to his original band but now we have 2 good bands making some good music.
Here's the new Crashdiet with their new singer, a new song called Generation Wild. Very strange video but good song:
And here is Crashdiet's singer from the first video with his band called Reckless Love. This is a song called Bad Ass from their current CD(which is their first):
