Twisted Sister History
Twisted Sister, an iconic American heavy metal band formed in 1972 in Long Island, New York, became a defining force in glam metal and hard rock throughout the 1980s. Initially, the band struggled to gain attention, creating a unique mix of glam rock and heavy metal with a theatrical aspect incorporated into their performances. Their breakout came with the release of 'Stay Hungry' in 1984, which included hits like 'We're Not Gonna Take It' and 'I Wanna Rock.' Both songs became anthems for youth rebellion and garnered significant radio airplay and MTV rotation. Twisted Sister's concerts were characterized by their flamboyant costumes, high-energy performances, and frontman Dee Snider's charismatic stage presence, creating an immersive experience for audiences. The band's explosive live shows solidified their reputation, leading to sold-out arenas worldwide throughout the mid-'80s. However, after disbanding in the late '80s, they reunited sporadically over the years, performing at festivals and tributes, and remained a staple act in the rock community.
