Yeah, so I sifted it and everything

Not ONLY does it have a bullet deflecting guitar solo, but it has Lorenzo Lamas.

Now that is a QUALITY 80s music video.

Hilarious! I loved the "squibely blap".

Though, not to be confused with the 80s Heavy Metal scene, which was damn good.

Patton Oswalt is brilliant. I love his Orange Claw of Failure (?) with the Cheetos.

I thought it was Shavo Odadjian, but I wasn't paying attention, re-watched and yes, I am incorrect. All those bald guys with weird beards look the same to me...

Yeah, I hate to say it, but Damn Yankees does not fit the Heavy Metal genre of the 80's. More like Iron Maiden, Dio, Slayer, Metallica, Anthrax, Priest, Sepultura, etc. Damn Yankes was more pop-rock than metal.

But you could say they were seen as "mainstream heavy metal" at the time, I dont think they are metal at all, but at the time, all sorts of crap were labeled metal.

Sepultura, slayer, early metallica, those are trash metal. Weren't trash metal bands part of the underground scene?

Yeah, you have a point there. I listened to a lot of different genres back then. Everything from Gary Newman to Steely Dan to King Diamond. But now that I think about it, those bands were labeled as "trash, or thrash metal" back in the day.
