ahahaha... silly dumbass, do you really think you can provoke people with choosing an account that implies that you're a stupid kid without a social life that only signs up to lastfm to write stupid comments under tag shoutboxes so that some people are pissed off and abuse you? not really.

GnR is not glam and Led Zeppelin should be on here. They're the founds who founded that hard rock sound then came AC/DC.

Aswell as glam rock bands of the 70´s,if you don´t see the glam influence in their music,you dont listen to them,glam rock of the 70´s actually rocks so it´s not an offense,also,Motley Crue (a glam band) have punk rock influences and covers. The point of my argument is that hard rock is not a genre with a certain sound,because some bands of the list are hard rock but very different.

Guns n roses have glam influence in their music,with glam i am talking about glam rock of the 70,not the 80´s stuff like Poison It´s obvious that they were very influenced by bands like New york dollsHanoi Rocks,Rose tattoo,with a mix of punk rock influence,they don´t remind me to say,deep purple,at all.I am not saying that they are glam,just that all the bands listed in the hard rock genre,have a different sound and different influences. Hard rock as a genre,doesn´t really exist,because it doesn´t have a strict core sound,for example,AC/DC are really different to Deep Purple.

A lot of these bands had different styles and influences on them,ACDC had a rock and roll sound,Kiss and Alice Cooper are glam and shock,same with Guns n Roses,Scorpions have metal influences,Uriah Heep are like progresisve rock,and Led Zeppelin is more like a Blues rock band. Pure hard rock doesn´t exist.
