Husker Du

Def Leppard clearly #1 - back-to-back albums with over 7 million in sales, heavily influential on the more pop-friendly "heavy music" of the era.
GnR probably #2 - they came in very late and sort of formed the "bridge" between hair metal and related genres and grunge, IMHO
Bon Jovi #3 - although they consciously sought to be the "American" Def Leppard, pretty solid through the decade as well.
Metallica #4 - this was before they killed Napster
Motley Crue #5

Well, in 89 I was 13 so I was pretty young for most of the 80's. It is what it was...

They actually would be on my top 5 depending on the day, month and year you ask me to make a top 5 80's band.

Since this is sort of an 80s thread, Pitchfork released their top 200 songs of the 80s list this week.
