More like proto ambient twerk.

^ That may be the single most '80s video ever made.   RATT shares a fine tradition with Def Leppard, Tygers of Pan-Tang, and Led Zeppelin of hard rock bands intentionally misspelling their own names.

I dunno, maybe the twelve (12) people who cast their vote? If you don't have an opinion, your protest is nothing but empty words. Disapprove

She could have been as big as RATT, probably bad advice from her record label.

I just realized Tori Amos, especially on Boys for Pele, has a lot of the same aesthetic as Tool. She even did a duet with Maynard. Maybe she should be moved to proto-post-prog-metal?
