The Contenders
11 Nitro Nitro was an American glam metal band formed in Hollywood, California in 1988. Known for their over-the-top antics, the band was a staple in the late '80s glam metal scene. They gained attention for their virtuosic guitar work and operatic vocals, often showcasing high octane performances. Despite their dissolution in the mid-'90s, Nitro remains a subject of fascination for fans of the glam and shred metal subgenres.

They may have a Glam image but musically they aren't, they have Speed Metal songs, riffs etc which makes since I would expect Speed from a band called Nitro

19 Lion
20 Winger Winger is an American rock band that has combined elements of glam metal and progressive metal. Formed in New York City, Winger gained popularity during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Winger is a very cool band. Even though the meaning of some songs is rather stupid, they can have solos that are much harder and cooler than some Metallica (as it was in the song "Seventeen"). And they also have such ballads that break even such a strong and patient person like me into tears.

21 Roxx Gang

Roxx Gang is a very misunderstood band with great songs. For getting to know this group, I am grateful to the first part of Saints Row. If we are not talking about the game, then Roxx could make good songs from just glam to ballads

22 Electric Boys
23 Bang Tango
