Reply #31: Ironically, it was one of the first hair metal bands who got me into "real" metal. [View All]

I wanted to learn more about Bon Jovi, so I started reading rock magazines. I considered myself as being pretty savvy music-wise, so it bothered me that the mags contained stories stories about bands I'd never heard of, like Metal Church and Slayer and Anthrax. The reaction to Cliff Burton's death made me buy Metallica's Master Of Puppets purely out of curiosity, having absolutely no idea of what I was going to hear. Two riffs later, I was hooked!
