what kind of rock music you like better and why?
I much prefer the 80s hair bands cause the music was a lot more fun, carefree, has more of an upbeat, high energy feel to it, the musicians and the vocal harmonies were also a lot better
I prefer the 80s and 70s rock music compared to the 90s and today's rock music. The 80s and the 70s rock fits my personality more. I think the music was a little more laid back and chill and it just suits me more.
share90s grunge all the way
This movie was a total piece of garbage and these cheesy 80s hair bands music killed my brain cells. Total *beep* This is NOT my type of rock sorry.
maybe if they used Real rock i would've liked the movie at least but everything in the movie was crappy from the music to the stupid non existing plot.
i love both 80s hair\glam rock and 1990s grunge. haveing to pick a side though GRUNGE is better because those were my teen years
Rob Zombie is one of the greatest movie directors today
Out of the 90's bands that is not heavy(since I was already listening to Sepultura, Fear Factory, Carcass back then) I liked 311 best. They are definitely not grunge.
Anyway to answer the question, if that's the only choices, I choose 90's grunge. I found 80's hair metal lacking... something, don't know what it is.

"Haha!" - Nelson Muntz ... pointing at you! :P
I was a big fan of both. What do I like better?
Well, one point of the debate, is why do Hair Metal fans get sooooo upset and outraged about 90s grunge? you don't see Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam fans moaning constantly about Hair Metal. But for some reason Hair Metal enthusiasts go way over the top. As for Nirvana destroying Hair Metal, I think bands like Soundgarden, Faith No More and Red Hot Chili Peppers had started to sow the seeds.
For me, it wasn't just Grunge that killed Hair Metal, Hair Metal killed Hair Metal. People were getting bored of the whole, let's write another song about all the girls I can get and the wild parties we have. People were fed up of seeing 30 -50 year old guys in videos perving over girls barely out of school. The songwriting hadn't progressed, bar GN'R. PLUS. the obligatory BALLAD destroyed hair metal. They were some gems, like Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone and I Remember You; but let's face it, Every Rose Has It's Thorn sounds like a Justin Beiber song or that it's been written by some 13 year old youtube wannabe. Too many bands were just releasing albums to have the BIG ballad on it and filling the rest of the album with b-rated rock fillers. Grunge came, when Hair Metal had run out of ideas, and that's a fact.
As I said, I liked both, and though musically and intelligently, grunge is better and produced more top notch albums - Ten, Dirt, Badmotorfinger, Nevermind, Doolittle, Temple Of The Dog - all classics that are still loved today; there aren't many Hair Metal albums that were great start to finish, only Appetite For Destruction stands the test of time; though personally I am still a fan of (the fairly unknown) Vain's No Respect and DLR's Eat Em & Smile which were also fantastic records. And when grunge came along I listened to Hair Metal a far less, as I was just bored of it by then, and I think that was the same for many, many people, hence its decline.
However, hair metal IS more fun and I'm more likely to have a good fun blast of Def Leppard, GNR, Vain, Cinderella than I am, Temple Of The Dog.
So, songwriting wise and credibility wise, grunge is better. If Pop music is your thing, then Hair Metal is better and I don't mean that as a dig, it just, is Pop. It's Backstreet Boys in spandex.

80s.
share80's rock. And what I loved about 80's rock is that even the most "hard-core" bands (or so they seemed back then) also did love ballads. For some reason I always found that funny and always loved them (still do).
I specifically reminded her - bedside table! On the Kangaroo!
Well seeing that I graduated in 87 I'm going with 80's hair band.
