The Top 15 Hair Metal Frontmen
Hair metal will never die . . . nor should it. But who are the best frontmen of the genre? This list from UltimateClassicRock.com claims to have nailed down the Top 15.
But the Top 3 are pretty questionable. Here they are:
1. Axl Rose from Guns N' Roses
2. David Lee Roth from Van Halen
3. Sammy Hagar from Van Halen
4. Joe Elliott from Def Leppard
5. Sebastian Bach from Skid Row
6. Jon Bon Jovi from Bon Jovi
7. Bret Michaels from Poison
8. Vince Neil from Motley Crue
9. David Coverdale from Whitesnake
10. Dee Snider from Twisted Sister
11. Stephen Pearcy from Ratt
12. Kevin DuBrow from Quiet Riot
13. Jani Lane from Warrant
14. Jack Blades from Night Ranger
15. Don Dokken from Dokken
I said the Top 3 were questionable, especially numbers 2 and 3. I mean, Van Halen was NOT hair metal. So even though Roth and Hagar were great frontmen, they weren't hair metal frontmen. Even in Sammy's pre- and post-Van Halen career, he wasn't hair metal.
Also, I think most Guns N' Roses fans would FIGHT YOU if you called them hair metal.
One more that could be iffy is David Coverdale. Whitesnake got lumped into the hair metal genre with '80s hits like "Here I Go Again" and "Still of the Night", but they also had a classic sound.
And that's because Coverdale made his bones in the '70s, fronting Deep Purple.
