Rush is not Heavy Metal. Many of those are grunge which also is not heavy metal.

Thin Lizzy = Metal?

Robin Trower? Rush?

How about Motley Crue? GNR would be nothing without the Crue showing them how to destroy themselves.

This raises a question - how do you define heavy metal (or any other muscical genre for that matter)? Is there a standard definition or do you just know it when you hear it?

I think its more you know it when you hear it.

back in the 30's and 40's the ONLY difference in blues and country was that whites sang country and blacks sung blues. and since there was no mtv the djs and stores would get them wrong sometimes.

and most of the stuff that comes out of Nashiville nowadays aint country-its pop with a southern accent.

Dio? Does he have enough of a body of work, on his own, to deserve to be in the top 25?

Hard rock and metal seem to fuse together often. Sometimes on the same album.

I believe the Scorpions would belong on that list also.

Metallica was pissed that year... I believe "..And Justice For All" was up for an award in that category that year.
