re: Obscure “hair band” that is actually a good rock band? One of the ones I’m thinking of…

They're not obscure, but they are a great rock band that gets unfairly lumped in with hair metal:

Agree. Saw them open for Def Leppard back in the day and they were awesome. Queensryche was the 2nd opener of that show and they were amazing as well. Honestly, I enjoyed both of those bands’ live performance more than DL.

Tesla has never fit any mold. They weren’t glam enough to be a hair band, weren't grungy enough to be a grunge band, and weren’t fast enough to be a metal band. Thank god for those three because they are a great rock band and at least for me the best.

One of the best rock bands of the 80s/90s. They incorporate blues, classic rock and metal into their stuff to perfection, and the guitar work in their songs is incredibly creative and complex. As another poster stated, they don't really fit into any mold. They are genre breaking, and to me that's the making of a great band.
They are fantastic live as well.

Saw Tesla from row 2 in Philly years ago, I’m still hopeful to someday get my hearing back. It was a hell of a show though.

This was almost exactly my first train of thought seeing this thread title.
