"S" Bands

[metalmaniac777]

Yessssssssssssss, we have come to the "S"s. Absolutely brutal whittling this poll down to 20 and there are plenty of glaring omissions, so more than ever, write-ins welcome.

 

My vote goes to Skid Row (more specifically, the Baz-fronted years). Love the way they merged melody & aggression, and Sebastian still ranks as one of the most killer singers in hard rock history.

 

OK, your turn...which band do you think is "s"uper?

[Bubbasmama]

Gotta go Skid Row!

[Wotty]

For me..

 

1.The Storm

 

2.Stage Dolls

[Dead Planet]

Tough poll...went with Shakra but there are at least a half dozen others that are close......

[Jez]

Glaring omission number 1::

 

 

SAGA

[heaven&hell]

So many good ones on that list but my vote goes to Skid Row.

Also loved Saigon Kick, Shotgun Messiah, Slaughter, Scorpions, Sweet FA, Sleeze Beez, Steelheart, Southgang and Sweedish Erotica.

[London]

I really like a lot of these bands. But Skid Row is hands down one of my favs. Baz era of course. SAVAGE ANIMAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[phaffas]

S... what a brilliant letter...

Scorpions, Sleeze beez, Stratovarius, Starbreaker, Slaughter, Shakra.... but i went Stryper..

[Dark Star]

Tough choice, but I finally went with The Scorpions... More quality releases over all......

[LV KIX]

Possible that this is my easiest choice yet... though they don't appear as a choice.

 

SAVATAGE........

[Dave]

Slaves Of The New World is one of my all time favourites so Steelhouse Lane get my vote.

[Swazi]

I went with the Skids, but I also love Saigon Kick, Shakra, quite a few on this list...

Based on their entire catalog, I have to go with the Scorpions, without a doubt.

[Geoff]

Too many great bands to talk about the runners-up but I am super surprised to see only Dave and Ian even mention the easy and obvious ( ) winner -
