This should make for an interesting comparison with Hair Nation, for those of us that are participating in both Walk the Dog and Slacker Spotlight.

Kind of a cross between Boneyard and Hair Nation, with some newer stuff mixed in sometimes. Pretty good!

It is okay, but certainly not something I could endure very often! LOL

Then I am not really into Metal!

This one not only won't make it to my G2, but it has been deleted from my favorites cause I never want to listen to it again! hehehe

I think we found the first station DAB doesn't really like! Hehee.


Anyways, I like this station and it makes me mad at the same time. I give the station a 4 out of 5. It has a very good mix of music and is enjoyable to listen to. IT makes me mad, however because it points out a glowing flaw in Slacker's premade lineup; hair metal. This station is not a hair metal station, it mixes in newer music and some of the harder early metal. It can't be that hard for them to make a true hair metal station, can it?

What's hair metal and what's not hair metal is too fine of a line. Of course, I hate the term "hair metal." It's all rock and roll man. NOBODY who listened to this music back in the day called it "hair metal." It's a revisionist history term that used to be a derogatory term to refer to those bands and somehow became an acceptable term.

I kind of feel like its their version of the boneyard because they throw in the newer stuff from these bands that they have released. This is alot better then hair nation.

Nevertheless, it has somehow become an accepted term, as when you say it people tend to know what you're talking about. Just to make a point, they play Buckcherry on this station. While I Don't hate Buckcherry (I actually like their music) they are not hair metal.
