Mötley Crüe

Legendary American Glam Metal Band

Mötley Crüe is an American heavy metal band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1981. The group was founded by bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee, later joined by lead guitarist Mick Mars and lead singer Vince Neil. Mötley Crüe quickly rose to fame with their hard-hitting music, outrageous stage antics, and hedonistic lifestyle. Their breakthrough album, "Shout at the Devil," released in 1983, solidified their status as rock icons with its aggressive sound and provocative imagery. The band continued to enjoy commercial success throughout the 1980s, with albums like "Theatre of Pain" (1985) and the multi-platinum "Girls, Girls, Girls" (1987), which further established their reputation for anthemic hooks and rebellious lyrics.
