Comment:

Much to the chagrin of a growing music censorship movement, rock and its many guitar-wielding offshoots ruled the '80s, from small towns to strip mall-lined suburbs and skyscraper-topped cities. Simply put, everyone had their own personal anthems on [i]blast[/i], including punks who spent their Saturday nights slam-dancing at CBGB's (Bad Brains, Black Flag), grizzly metalheads in parking lots and pickup trucks (Megadeth, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne), fiery-eyed indie rockers (Fugazi, Minutemen, Pixies), an army equipped with leather and lace (Mötley Crüe, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot), and classic rock fans who caught somehow more defining moments from the music's defining bands (Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Neil Young). And bringing them all together somewhere in the middle? Lots of awkward, a-rhythmic air guitar moves.
