Because back in the 1980's they were actually considered a metal band, alas one that was still very soft.I was there during the Bon Jovi mania back in the mid-late 80's.

Bon Jovi is everywhere. they had a "hair metallic" area, yet they are long previous that, that's in all probability why they are nevertheless around. presently, they have not something to do with metallic. you surely would desire to dig deeper into their catalogue to make sure what they are all approximately. Albums like "presently" and "shop the religion" are absolute masterpieces, yet can not fairly be categorised into anybody type. "lost highway" replaced into united states of america, and it replaced into an album they felt very strongly approximately as artists. Their first 2 albums are cheesy 80s synth rock. they have been blues rock. they have been Americana. they have been pop. they are too all around the board to fairly categorize. yet no. they are certainly not metallic. it is not "lady rock", nonetheless. the only reason they entice extra women individuals than adult men (nonetheless i comprehend an excellent number of adult men who're followers), is via the fact Jon & Richie are good finding. in the event that they have been gruesome, the song might talk for itself. they are surely very intense songwriters and musicians (and for the checklist, Jon hates whilst human beings communicate approximately his hair). particularly, in case you have not, supply the album "presently" a pay attention. this is their masterpiece, IMO.

Not even close to heavey metal! Not classic rock either (they're pretty modern in my book), possibly hair metal (their old stuff) and I guess just plain rock now.

Just rock, they are defiantly not heavy metal. If you want heavy metal try Motorhead or Iron Maiden.

Neither. I'd call them a rock band.
