    These guys aren't glam metal nor have anything to do with it. [2] They're more like melodic rock/pop rock, than followers of Mötley Crüe / Bon Jovi etc.

    I really hate that they're compared with the worst of the hair bands. I mean, I love hair bands but they're so much better than Danger Danger, c'mon! Fantastic melodies, great harmonies. Jani Lane quality songwriting IMO. Who cares about the hair?
