A friend in need is a friend indeed.Placebo, often touted as having glam rock connections, released Placebo in 1996.
Also perhaps the only bridging factor between grunge/punk and glam.

Extreme's Pornograffiti is one of my all time favorite albums of all time.Sure, we all know what happened to big guitar solos and bigger hair once the 90s rolled in, but the party didn't stop. I made a list of my favorite glam/hair albums released during the dark ages. Your mileage may vary and I probably have a few that I would switch out if I thought about it harder. I had a hard time leaving off Poison's Native Tongue (1993) and Mr. Big's Lean Into It (1991), but whatever. It is what it is. Steel Panther-approved.
1990 Extreme - Pornograffitti
1991 Bangalore Choir - On Target
1992 Warrant - Dog Eat Dog
1993 Winger - Pull
1994 Bang Tango - Love After Death
1995 Skid Row - Subhuman Race
1996 Mr. Big - Hey Man
1997 Whitesnake - Restless Heart
1998 Night Ranger - Seven
1999 Dokken - Erase The Slate
I'm not a glam metal dude, but my singer introduced me to this band and they're pretty darn good:
Now that's an underrated record.Love/Hate, ‘Black Out in the Red Room’ (1990)
Also, a little late in 1993, this album "Bite Down Hard" by Britny Fox came out....it's so underrated.
Such a great album. Got really back in to Britny Fox big time lately thanks to another one of @ArtDecade glam threads! Their Boys in Heat album is a cracker tooAlso, a little late in 1993, this album "Bite Down Hard" by Britny Fox came out....it's so underrated.
That's awesome! Also, Long Way To Live is great, too.Great album. Those guys are locals and I worked with Billy for a while. He was a trip.
Oh yes, that album is great, too!Such a great album. Got really back in to Britny Fox big time lately thanks to another one of @ArtDecade glam threads! Their Boys in Heat album is a cracker too
Amazing album but I actually prefer Wasted in America (1992). Happy Hour and Evil Twin are both slices of 24carat goldNow that's an underrated record.
They went with the image but not the sound. Look at all that teased hair.Never understood with Badlands get categorised as Glam tho.... the debut and Voodoo Highway are brilliant but its not glam or hair metal....
Anything by Jake E. Lee =Voodoo Highway is the best thing Jake has ever done imo. Fun Fact: his guitar tech on that album is pre DLR/Ozzy guitarist Joe Holmes.
I lean a bit more towards the debut, but VH is awesome too. My favorite track by Jake is Killer Of Giants off of The Ultimate Sin. If he had known Ozzy was going to can him, that should have been a track saved for Badlands.Voodoo Highway is the best thing Jake has ever done imo.
