Big Hair, Tight Pants, And Lots Of Make-Up
In this episode Nate and Kyle discuss our favorite late 80s early 90s much-maligned music genre mockingly called "Hair Metal." The hosts walk through the common misconceptions and try and tear down some of the more egregious arguments some use to take shots at what, in our opinion, was an era of talented musicians, making great rock and roll music. The main take-away is that big hair, tight pants, and lots of makeup isn't a genre, and we would fight you on it, but we need to find our eye liner.
