Don't waste your time arguing with that guy, he thinks he knows everything about heavy metal. At one time he said Motorhead, Saxon and Judaspriest were the champions of British heavy metal. lol

If you look at topics there one asking if Bon Jovi is HM, so, it means that for some people some kind of music can be classified as HM.
I only know that since I'm listening HM, early eighties, official magazine, radios, and whatever you want, used to consider HM the music played by bands such as Motorhead, Van Halen, Scorpions, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Dokken, Def Leppard, Queensryche, and so on until the end of the world.
Now you could say that Van Halen are not metal, but any metal guitarist dreamt of playing such Eddie, but then they palyed '1984' and made a 'Jump' to POP and never recovered.
Everybody gave the origin of this music to Hard Rock bands such as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, someone consider Jimy Hendrix, someone else the Kinks, then Judas Priest gave a direction to everybody and still doing it. After it, the NWOBHM gave birth to many bands such Iron Maiden, Anvil (Canada), Acid (Belgium), Trust (France), Vanadium (Italy), Raff (Italy), Accept (Germany).
It should be that I'm a 'fucking retarded', maybe, if I'm here answering you it should be that you're right !!

Ask Lemmy he will tell you : "We are Motorhead and we play Rock N Roll"!! Yes Motorhead is a part of the 80's british heavy metal movement but they are not a heavy metal band and they do not write heavy metal songs. They are a greesey biker dirty rock and roll band and if you can't understand this you are fucking retarded.

Highway to hell is just because I really love it and was in honour of Bon Scott ans the sound, considering the year is not so far from HM.
For what concern Motorhead, I not agree with you. Thay are HM!!! If not why someone talk about Bon Jovi as a metal band ? Are we joking ?
| | | J.D. DIAMOND wrote: | | Motorhead IS a part of the British Heavy Metal movement and sometimes do have heavy metal riffs but for the most part they are not "heavy metal" but I can see why you threw them in but Deep Purple and AC/DC are NOT heavy metal!!!!!!
So really all 3 you mentioned are not heavy metal albums at all.

ACE OF SPADES - MOTORHED
DEEP PURPLE IN ROCK
