They all simply merged into one band - Radio 1 staple diet in late 70's early 80's along with Rainbow, Whitesnake and other American poodle rock..... Couldnt tell the difference at all.
Then The Smiths came along and once more life was worth living once again....

I like it.......@Mad Eyed Screamer called it that; I’d never heard the term but I love it. It’s for late 80s “hair metal” bands like Whitesnake whose members all had three foot long manes, but permed. I assume it carries over to Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Ratt, etc. to some degree.

Do I need to start reading NME again?
They are depressing. That's the point of them.
And onto poodle rock.
I like Bon Jovi. There, I said it. "Wanted, dead or alive" and "Dry County" are fine songs. As are others they wrote. I've even seen them live. I own a few albums. Early stuff granted.
I'll also say this, Extreme's Pornograffitti is an excellent record.

If you think the Smith's are depressing I would say you are a rock snob.
