While perusing through the TRAD METAL list, I found such groups that I think could find a better place in....
 
 
 
proto-metal
Buffalo (first album in 73)
Scorpions (first album in 73)
Trooper (first album in 72)  >>> only one or two albums were metallic-sounding >>> the rest is AOR >>> so this might be a first case for a new category Metal-related LOL

...as a continuation on Trooper: What is the dividing line between glam metal/hair metal and AOR? And for that sake, between glam rock and glam metal?

These are hairy questions in a manner of ways ;-)

Better than Metal Related, is tagging the albums non-metal to OTHER, since SEAN , MMA is album-based for genre.

LOL

For the Glam/Hair Metal sub-genre it will basically stay as is since the genre is dead. But in the case we forgot , I think we should go with POLL since most of US knows them .

We also have a TEAM LEADER who can decide and handle the "further researches" on a particular artist missing....

Glam Metal team :
  • NJCat_11
  • Negoba

Indeed Olav,
 
 
But I thinki've got the fine line between Glam/hair and AOR >>> Bon Anchiove ............ I mean bon jovi
And that part is not what I want to deal with >>> unless you install negative 1 star ratingLOL and I'm alowed crude wordsEmbarrassed in my reviews
 
 
As for your offer on Proto-metal and Trad Heavy Metal , M@x >>> I'd drop the trad if I was you..... just keep Heavy, because that's how it was called for soo long, but it seems evident that it is reserved for 70's bands (the pioneers)  and some 80's bands
 
just imagine the debate: Steppenwolf:  in Heavy Metal (they coined the expression) or in Proto-metal ??? >>> HELP, let me out of hereConfusedWackoLOL
 
I guess I can help at first, but I can't see myself on the long term as collab in two sites.... simply don't have the time....
