I seem to remember that term as well, I think you may be onto something Time Sig, "Classy" may be
related to the "make-up" (Bowie, New York Dolls, Sweet, Poison and so-on).

That makes sense. I guess that's where the "glam" part comes from, too. I've also heard terms like "sleaze rock/metal" and "cock rock/metal" used for what's called "glam metal" nowadays. I guess "hair metal" refers to the same genre. Anyway, I don't think the lyrical content of a lot of "class metal" is marticularly classy ;-)

used alot, from Hemispheres Rush to Spiral Architect. My reactions were like . . . "TECHNO!!!??? "

I'm not a native speaker of English myself, but i think that the many terms in rock music would probably confuse most English-speakers just as much as the rest of us.
