I gotta go with Metallica on this, my first exposure to “metal”…

chuck

The Cult or Metallica. One gets a lot of acclaim, but I actually think Firewoman is easier on the ears. Straightforward hard rock

Joey

One and a cloud of dust

1. One





2. Paradise City
(WttJ was better)


















3-12.

2 - Paradise City
3- everything else

Roam - B 52's

Counting Paradise City as 1989 Single - which it was BTW - is fucking retarded. It was released on a LP in 1987.

One is the best song on that list, but it's metal, not rock. I'm a sucker for Once Bitten, Twice Shy. Highly underrated.

I know, the single EPIC was released in January 1990, but the album The Real Thing was released in June of 1989. So I’m calling 89 for EPIC.

I like to call Mrs Coon Firewoman, that’s what I like to do.

Bout right here. A Def Leppard here and MC Hammer there…but this is about right.

Agreeing with @YellowSnow 's comment regarding Paradise City I'd go with Tesla. But the options are pretty narrow and just metal or "hard" rock. Overall I'd go with TP and Free Fallin'

metal is a sub genre under the umbrella of rock in this case
