Deafeningly loud and cheerfully sleazy, Slade stomped out any of the sexual ambiguity of glam with their big-booted hooks and guitars, creating some of the biggest U.K. hits of the '70s.
In the first half of the 1970s, Slade were the cornerstone of the glam-rock movement in the UK. Their penchant for heavy guitars meshed seamlessly with their knack for pop hooks and Noddy Holder's archetypal hard-rock vocal style, resulting in countless British hit singles and albums. By 1975, they had even starred in their in own film, the cult classic FLAME. The band had an unexpected comeback in the '80s with GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY POWER SUPPLY, which even broke through to the US, where Slade had never made much of a mark before. The band proved highly influential to both punk and heavy metal, but broke up in the early '90s, with the genial Holder subsequently becoming a UK TV personality.
