Very few - what an utterly empty genre
I'll agree with Kickstart my Heart and a smattering of others that people mentioned. But mostly it was a musical dead end, and as a trend it was deeply embarrassing - little more than transparent bad-boy posturing. And now it survives, as all awful trends must, as nostalgia.

Listen to Skid Row's initial album. It will surprise you. Same with Boston's main album. Van Halen has several
