We have not done a great job looking at the Metal Hall of Fame, but that changes today!

Yesterday, it was announced that Twisted Sister will be inducted to the Metal Hall at the sixth annual gala.  It will take place on January 26, 2023 at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, California.

Honored will be Twisted Sister’s original lineup of Dee Snider, Jay Jay French, Eddie Ojeda, Mark Mendoza and the late A.J. Pero.  Formed in the early 80s, Twisted Sister broke through with their third album, “Stay Hungry”, which yielded the hits, “I Wanna Rock” and “We’re Not Gonna Take It”, the latter remaining a protest anthem to this day.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Twisted Sister for their impending honor.

Picking up where KISS left off (which depending on your point of view is either good or bad) Twisted Sister had a pair of the most iconic videos of the early MTV age and with a eccentric blend of 70’s Glam and 80’s Hard Rock they seemed poise to have a long run. It didn’t happen, but with a huge album and an image that is still known today Twisted Sister may have (though for a brief time) captured the rebelliousness of youth better than anyone else did….or at least figured out to commercialize it.
