What’s In My 1,200 CD Glam Metal Collection?
Previously I filmed an episode showing an overview of my entire 12,000 CD collection. But for this video, I am focusing on my 1,200 CD collection of Glam Metal. This genre and style of music is my first love. While my tastes have grown and changed over the years, this is where it all started. Join me as I run through the collection showing you some of my favorite albums I’ve collected over the last 35 years.

Some people think that glam rock is not cool these days. I love it! They don't realize what they're missing.

There will never be another era of music like the 80s. And honestly it doesn't matter which genre of music it was I obviously love the glam metal hair metal whatever you want to call it it's all Rock and roll to me. The most important thing about music in my opinion was writing good music and throwing the f*** down live. It's just kind of crazy to think about how many bands they're actually was
You should put up a list of all your cds. That would be so cool.

Cool! Love to see this list!
Thank you for mentioning "Native Tongue", and "Crack A Smile". Both are phenomenal albums!
I'm 29 and started getting into glam rock summer of 2022 after getting deep into Motley Crue and GnR and it has become my favorite music genre by far. I love Ratt, Dokken, LA Guns, Motley, GnR, and so much more. I seriously love glam!

Side note, Glam Rock and Glam Metal are two different genres. Glam Metal are the bands you’re listing. But Glam Rock is the 70’s with bands like Sweet, T-Rex, Gary Glitter, etc.

Yeah but they were never Glam.
People who make fun of Winger because of Beavis & Butthead have no choice but to also bag on the Star Trek franchise and “geek culture” in general. It was established that Stuart enjoyed those things as well. Otherwise, Winger “critics” are being hypocritical. For me, I’m looking forward to seeing Winger perform “Pull” in its entirety later this year.
In Living Color / Vivid Cult of personality. Awesome . Where's the W.A.S.P. Can't talk glam metal and leave them out. Incredible collection man.

Love the Arcade cd!!! ❤❤
I'm fascinated by that early 90's music period where glam/hair metal was being pushed aside by the grunge movement, and how those bands pivoted. Asphalt Ballet, Extreme, Saigon Kick, Kick Tracee, Trixter even to some extent.....One foot in metal, one foot in grunge.
Finally finished this video Brendon. It’s truly a library for the genre. I’m sure most of this is not available to stream. A huge task finding this stuff and knowing it exists. And again, it looks so comforting to be submerged in it. Thank you for sharing!
To this day I'm honestly perplexed at the level of scorn this genre receives. Even radio generally memory-holes the entire era with the exception of a handful of megahits (Photograph, Here I Go Again, You Give Love A Bad Name, etc, etc). I just don't 'get' how both critics and the general public can be so dismissive of what was really about a decade-long reign of music where the vocals were often superhuman, the essential guitar melodies were nothing short of virtuoso, and the overall songwriting was more memorable and hook-laden than much of what has come since, not to mention the sheer amount of charismatic personalities involved. To say that there was an over abundance of talent would be an understatement. Despite all of these factors, it's almost like the world wants to forget that it ever existed. It makes no sense to me. Truly it was an era that deserves a deeper analysis and greater respect than it currently gets.
I’d also include the Psycho City album on my wall of wonder as well! You have an awesome collection Brendon!

So do I ! Flesh & Blood it’s my favourite one! In fact I think the 90’s was the decade of the most “mature” albums, they were very well balanced in terms of musical technical approach and feeling!
Kik Tracee! Loved them back in the day. Still dig them now, in fact.
I'm collecting glam metal 30 years and when I present my collection i start showing the cds of alleycat scratch, taz, rattlesnake shake, swingin thing, big bang babies, crywolf, wildboyz, bang gang, erotic suicide, sweet savage, heart throb mob, guttersluts, pretty boy floyd, mr nasty, skin & bones, roxx gang, vain, faster pussycat, finster baby, white eagle, jax, daddy dynamite, young gunns/wildside, razzle, tuff, spiders & snakes, st.valentine, cherry street, cruella dville, lancia, tigertailz, kill city dragons etc... but not msg, scorpions, kings x, burning tree or something that can't be considered as glam metal
Great show and full throttle music🎉
Great idea about a separate box for additional material by the same bands! I'm definitely going to start doing that. Will free up some shelf space.

For me it’s the only way to keep it all organized. With so many I’ve had to come up with unique ways of grouping to do what you said which is create space for other bands that have smaller catalogues.

Hello from France🇨🇵 Huge collection with most of the best glam rock albums from the 80's and 90's. It was a period when music made us smile and we didn't worry 😎 I haven't calculated the number of CDs you presented but it was significant. If I had to choose just one? VAIN “No Respect”🤘❤️ Good job👍
HI A wonderful collection, I started collecting Vinyl LPs... And what can't be found on LP, I buy on CD...anyway, it's fantastic to love music...I'm quietly jealous. I wish you a nice day and good luck.
I love glam metal my favorite trying to collect obscure glam metal CDs great episode 🎸🎸
That was a marathon, but super fun. For me, a few of my favorite 'hidden gems' that you showed -- Juliet, Roxy Blue, Christy Steele, Saraya and Tora Tora. Really good stuff if your viewers want to dig into some lesser-known artists. THX, Brendon!
Have most of your wall cds in my collection ❤
Awesome video and impressive collection. Thanks for sharing! 🔥👍🏻🎸
Great collection geez i Had about 368 Cassette tapes at one time. I Like Glam also it was Awesome, The Only Band i was waiting for to see if you had was any Shotgun Messiah. im sure you must know them, they put out 3 Good Albums in a Row
Such a great video. Will need to go back to it many times. A lot of bands I do not have in my 5000 CDs collection. Wow. So many things I need to buy now
This is a great reference video for the genre. A lot of obscure stuff. Thanks for posting!
Wow, impressive collection Brendon! Great video bringing back memories of so much great music from the late 80’s early 90’s….what a time for music it was!
I like this guy. He’s just appreciating and collecting the music without being too picky. It’s only rock’n roll but i like at its best 😊
Glam metal is my favorite! I believe I have at least 1200+ Glam Metal CDs in my collection. There were so many undiscovered bands that have maybe one release or just a demo.
Great collection Brendon! Lots of albums I need to check out.
Fantastic collection of glam metal albums, one of my favorite genre. 😎👍
This is what I've been waiting for! Thanks Brendon for taking time to run through your collection of this genre. That was a very comprehensive guide of the major bands and some more obscure ones. It is definitely an uplifting genre which can raise your mood and make you feel young again! Saw a few titles that I missed back in the day to look out for. Thanks
Great collection. You have everything. When you do these deep dive videos showing your collection, I am always jealous. lol
I am not a big Glam Metal fan, but I love your videos. You have such a big knowledge about rock/metal music and when you mentioned the near between Glam Metal and Grunge it opened my eyes because I am a big Grunge fan but as I said not a big Glam Metal fan :) Keep on doing that great videos!🤟
This makes me want to go back and listen to all my glam metal vinyl, cassettes and cds, especially that Trixter, now I was never a big Trixter fan at all, but my best friend, she was a huge fan of theirs, she was my girlfriends (now my wife) cousin, and she would always tell me…”You gotta get Trixter on cassette.”…years after high school we were still best friends and she would crank up Trixter and I would roll my eyes and laugh….later she was killed by a drunk driver….now…I own Trixter on CD, and I listen to it sometimes, and think of her and smile…I think Ill go back and listen to it again.
Love it amazing collection
I'm not argueing but GN'R AFD cannot be termed as a Glam album to be it's just a pure hard rock excellent debut album ever. Keep the good work up Man.

It’s most definitely a Glam Metal album. It’s sounds like it, looks like it, and was recorded in 1986. It’s sleezy hard rock at its best….that is what Glam Metal is. You don’t have to agree with me, but it doesn’t change what it is. I say all of this in good fun of course 😬

@@BrendonSnyder I did not judge the music by the musicians looks, i judge it by the sound. To me it seems you considered a musicians with long hair who released their albums in the 80's are all glam band which is not. The GNR chord progression and the swing in AFD are completely differ from glam. Play it and you'll know it.
Awesome recommendations. I was writing down the lesser known bands that sounded interesting.
That's a pretty good collection Brendon. I bet that some of them have been played only like a couple of times!

Great vid! I always love seeing what you have in your collection. Gave me ideas for some more to find at my local store and on Amazon.
Love this channel & as a result have been subscribed to it for quite some years now. That said, when the topic of *glam metal* is the main focus of a video & or brought up just in passing, much like a child alone in the wilderness, I am completely lost. Truly having never listened to any bands under the umbrella of said genre. With the closet I ever got to possibly “exploring” said style of music out being when at my local thrift store *(shoutout to Value Village on Kingston Road & Whites Road in Pickering-Ontario, Canada)* a few years back I found & bought a copy of the *Cinderella - Night Songs* CD. But alas, much like alot of other cd’s, vinyl, cassettes, 8-tracks I find/purchase in my travels, I never found the time nor had any desire to listen to it. And as a result, it has long since sold. My loss perhaps, but who knows maybe one day I may give some of the band’s mentioned in this video a listen, but just not today. Another insightful upload though, Brendon. And do keep em’ coming. Cheers!!! 😉
Did I miss Pretty Boy Floyd? The epitome of glam metal circa 1989!

To me Poison are the epitome of Glam Metal circa 1986. But yes I have Petty Boy Floyd in the collection too. Their debut specifically because they do a cover of Motley Crue’s Toast Of The Town which was unreleased at the time so I wanted to hear it.
Adored glam growing up, still love it!
Awesome collection, so cool. Do you have any of the Japanese releases of any of the Scorpions catalog? They are cool and usually have a couple of extra bonus tracks. I agree Unbreakable is a fantastic record.
This collection is amazing!

Can never get enough hair / sleaze metal. Love all the under the radar bands in the collection.
Rock head is a really good album but I have been digging into Dillinger and been pleasantly surprised 🤘
AMAZING DISPLAY OF CDS,I WISH I CAN FIND SOME OF THEM IN MY AREA,I HAVE LOT OF THEM BUT ONLY IN COPIES NOT THE ORIGINAIS
Didn't realize Michael Monroe was with Demolition 23...I learn something new every time I watch your videos Brendon. Where in you collection do you house Savatage? I put them under glam metal but I guess that's just me. Spread Eagle, Tora Tora, Winger, Extreme....love them all. No mention of Pretty Boy Floyd but I bet you've got them all. Push Push 'A Trillion Shades of Happy "..New Zealand's one and only glam metal era band. You need that one Brandon! Their big hit was "Trippin Out"....so good! Thanks for an awesome Glam metal collection video!...🤘😃🤘
Great stuff! I’ve got a huge CD and box set collection myself but not quite as much as you. And yeah, some people get defensive about who you include in glam rock/hair metal because the terms have been stigmatized but I was at the perfect age (high school 1983-1986) and there’s no question that even the rock bands that aren’t fully hair bands certainly still participated in it and there shouldn’t be any shame in that. If you turned on MTV in the mid 80s you’d see Ozzy and Judas Priest and Kiss and Heart and Scorpions and the rest right next to Dokken and Poison and Bon Jovi with the same clothes/guitars/hair/band sonics as all the genuine hair bands. Just look at Ozzy’s blonde perm and glitter around that time or any of those bands’ videos. They’re all right in line. But I loved it and still do out of nostalgia.
Excellent tour room of amazing glam rock music 📀📀📀📀 t rex
Love this video-the best of the best!
Lot of them bands changed their sound over the years from ratt warrant motley crue and many others. But I still bought their music and still listen to them bands.
Love the waysted ep la guns.Still trying to figure out waysted solo on guitar because no one is doing a lesson about it😂
Those are some of my favorite bands.

Very very good contratulations,

I had all of that stuff sold most of it off why it’s still relevant. I still have about 300 or so to list and get rid of. Do you have Friction Baby Talk in there.
NICE collection.....I probably have 80% of those that you mentioned. There are few i may have to check out that i did not know. A few that u did not mention......Johnny Crash......Coney Hatch....Icon.... I know there are so many more that i can't name at the moment as i am sure you know as well. As you named all these bands i just said....DAMN! I remember that band or lp. As with any genre of music when "Glam Metal" hit big every band under the sun was signed hoping to become the next Big band. And after 1 lp if they did not have a "hit" they got dropped. On a side note a few bands u mentioned IMO are not glam.....MSG.....SCORPS.....TESLA....Y&T....Blue Murder...etc. But you bringing up there name may make folks to check them out. Oh yeah nice tshirt... IMO the first KIX lp was THE FIRST GLAM METAL LP released. It came out before Motley Crues lp.
Someday I'll send you something 🙂
Very cool
I have my original dokken on cassettes and I have their first five cds 💿 on album series and beast from the east that's the only rock candy I own from Dokken.

I never considered Kings X to be glam, more prog adjacent with a bit of jam band

Крутая коллекция. Но глэм метал довольно размытое понятие. Так что думаю здесь имеется и просто хард рок или хэви метал.
❤ Scorpions ❤
the first 3 L.A. Guns Albums rule. I definitely consider Bon Jovi Glam Metal and Also Aerosmith and Def Leppard.
Question for you, when adding to your collection in alphabetical order like u have a cd for the letter "A" do u have to move down all the rows just to sneak it in or do u just put them someplace else?
King!!!!!!!!
I also love native tongue and crack a smile, unfortunately we’ll never know how crack would’ve done if it came out instead of greatest hits, also love the poor, saw them recently at the Gold Coast Australia, and they’re Aussie not British.
Hey Brandon you're missing Harem Scarem first two albums in your collection they are a great hair metal band but more melodic hard Rock
