Do you...

... wonder where all the good bands have gone?
... wear lots of leopardprint?
... look forward to the next Coldplay album the way you look forward to the arrival of bird 'flu?
... get laughed at for dancing to Shout At The Devil?
... wish it was still 1987?

If you answered yes to any of the above Hairmetalireland is for you.

HMI was created due to the lack of coverage of any glam/sleaze and hard rock bands in the UK and Ireland.

We don't want to get bogged down with the whole genre issue but this website will only feature glam, sleaze, 80's style and good old hard rock n roll bands.

No: Death, Black, Doom, Thrash, Speed, Industrial, Goth, Emo or Nu metal etc. There are plenty of other website's to deal with them.

We will consider other Heavy metal, stoner and punk bands if they have sleazy or glam influences. For example; Nashville Pussy, Monster Magnet and the like.

Submission Guidelines:

For band profiles: Your band must be based in either the UK or Ireland. You must consider yourself to sound like or be strongly influenced by glam, sleaze or hard rock (call it what you like). You must be able to send HMI a short bio and a picture for your profile.

For reviews: We will review any glam/sleaze/hard rock etc album/demo we are sent from anywhere in the world.

For links: We will link any band or relevant website who wish us to.
