You can't f--- with these guys.
CELTIC FROST

Oh well, I guess you'll have to paste that last one into your browser. But I'm assuming most here can imagine Stryper...
Think of a vagina with long poofy hair and a guitar.
The 80's were great...the weirder you were the better.
Slaughter
Poison
Faster Pussycat
Motley Crue
just to name a few....man, what was with the hair? And the pants? he he he...

Darn it, Grand Duke beat me to it. I could not believe it took 7 pages to mention the absolute kings of 80's metal, Def Leppard.
Who could forget the gentle warblings of Bathory?
One of my faves was the Tubes. Don't know if you'd consider them metal though.
The Tubes were great, but not technically metal.
From 1984:
In Conspiracy With Satan
Bathory
The lies of Christ will lose
the ways of hell I chose
I drink the floating blood
defy the fury of God
I have turned my back on Christ
to hell I have sacrificed
I have made love to the Pagan Queen
the gates of hell I have seen
I heard the angels cry
I watched the witches fly
I saw the clouds of death
Slowly blackening the sky
I read the book of spell
I chimed death's ancient bell
and when I die I have a place
reserved in hell
In conspiracy with Satan
I ride the bloodstained goat
I let the brewage float
I have seen the reaper's face
and walked through eternal haze
I have kissed my master's hand
I have seen the children of the damned
I heard the demons call
and seen a thousand virgins fall
<thems be metal lyrics of the highest order...of satan>

My favorite King Crimson is Lizard followed closely by Larks Tongue in Aspic and Starless and Bible Black
Well chosen, Bear. My faves too.
"Burn a bridge and burn a boat....stake a lizard by the throat"....
