First time poster.
Is this a thing? I know about Glam Metal but it's too aggressive for me. Baby metal is too wapanese for me too.
Ever since I saw this I've been trying to scratch my itch. I want something that's like pop-punk lyrically, heavier but not aggressive in the lyrics.

>I miss you sounded the best
So Sup Forums can you help me out with what I'm looking for?
Am I shit out of luck?
Will I have to create this gay ass genre?

>First time poster
It had better fucking be your last you little shit
>implying
I hope it will be.
This is my first time in Sup Forums and I want it to be my last.
In Warrant's page of Spotify, it describes the band as pop-metal
When I first read this, I was like, what I'm even reading
Probably japanese flower metal
Had a qt PR gf's uncle who hipped me on Non Point. They weren't so bad.
I'm not a music guy which is why I asked.
If this genre doesn't exist I might have to make it and shit all over the music world.
you want fear and loathing in las vegas
you could check out the more recent deftones releases maybe? a pretty good synthesis of dream pop/shoegaze/generally "pop" songwriting and alternative metal. maybe less campy than you were expecting and definitely more subtle a prospect but it fits the bill pretty nice. chino is also a huge fan of duran duran and you can hear it a bit in his songwriting
i know you checked out glam metal but check out w.a.s.p if you haven't already
now get the fuck out of here......
>nonpoint
Getting close.
Closer. Too much synth crap for my tastes. Remove all that and they'd pretty much be it.
Come on Sup Forums help me out here.
I wasn't a fan of wasp and is what I was trying to avoid. Don't get me wrong I like a band to have energy but the lyrics I'm looking for would be delivered a little less aggressively.
Deftones have the right sound but the wrong lyrics.
Thanks for the recommendations though I'm getting closer.
you sure you aren't looking for weebshit?

There's post-hardcore that's got pop influence, like Brand New.
I'm sure. If it was in english I'd probably dig on it more.
Their sound is great and lyrical delivery is on point.
I'm just looking for something in english.
Guns n Roses. Accessible, trashy rock songs by extremely talented and proficient musicians.
Is stuff like Iron Maiden not close enough?
you mean melodic power metal?
Nah. It's the delivery of the lyrics that kills me. To me it's like they're just aggressive in their delivery where things like pop-punk try a smoother delivery than as opposed to bands like Poison, Def Leppard and Warrant. It might be the style of the age at that time I don't dig on.
Glam Metal just doesn't get me there.
Give A Day to Remember a shot. I think they're the closest to what you're describing.

if you're looking to tone down the aggression maybe just look into glam punk. the brand of weeb metal you're looking for in english probably doesn't work because the americas don't have the same affinity for cute schoolgirls/ladyboys being badass as japan does
it's also very mainstream there and the production value for a lot of it is high, whereas in the US or something it's too niche to capitalize on so no band will even try it
That's really close.
It just needs more metal.
never post again
ninja magic is your only option
That's one of their softer songs. Here's some other stuff:

I think this is as close as it gets.
D-Generation and The Heart Attacks start to drift out of the realm of 70's-80's sound.
Definitely something I'm looking into though.
They just need to shred some more.
That's what I'm talking about. If only power metal would just sing about something other than dragons and battle.
The sound is perfect but the lyrics turn me off.
I didn't think this would be such a hard question.
What about this
youtube.com
How about songs about trees?
A majority of Galneryus' lyrics are in Japanese, so if they're singing about dragons and shit it should be easy to ignore.
Kamelot - The Black Halo
Also who the fuck cares about lyrics
The only problem I have is that it still lyrically has that 80's sound to it which I'm not a big fan of.
Other than that it's right what I'm looking for.
Thanks Sup Forums take my rarest Hitler for your help you've given me a lot to look at.
I won't be back.
t.Sup Forums
ADTR is fucking gud
Why are all Sup Forumsfags such musical plebs?
this is what you're looking for op
Because we're too busy making america great again.
By nuking Syria?
Gamma Ray is good if you want power metal but despise derivative Tolkien garbage.
He didn't nuke anything.
deafheaven - sunbather
Some of Devin Townsend's stuff I'd describe as pop-metal
