REO Speedwagon. Some of their early stuff like "Golden Country" and "Ridin' the Storm Out" was pretty heavy. Instead they went the bubble-gum Top 40 route in the 80's. Night Ranger comes to mind as well.

I think I am going to have to stay out of this one, I am obviously in disagreement with all of you.

Carry on.

But the two that come most readily to mind as hovering right on that edge, for a while anyway, are Queen and Journey. A lot of older Queen material - "Stone Cold Crazy," "Ogre Battle," "Sheer Heart Attack," et. - not only crossed firmly into metal territory, but also influenced legions of modern metal bands. And Journey really forayed into that area quite a bit with their Escape and Frontiers albums, songs like "Keep on Runnin'," "Dead or Alive," "Edge of the Blade," "Chain Reaction," and even "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)."

A few other bands that I think could have successfully made that crossover are Styx, Cheap Trick, and Boston.
How friggin old are you boy? Cheap Trick "Heavy Metal"??
Journey, "Heavy Metal"??

Frankly, I am appalled Reaper gives this his blessing!

This thread is about non-metal bands that have some decent heaviness going on. You're misunderstanding it.

Here we go again: What is and isn't metal. The thread is about non-metal bands whose sound at times teetered towards metal. I never said the Cars were more Metal than Dead and Count Grischnac from Mayhem.

On a side note...Chimaira covered "Fascination Street" on some Roadrunner comp. Very cool.

I think the other band that contributed mightily to the "nu-metal" craze was Anthrax and it only took one song with Public Enemy.

They also did "I'm the Man", which wasn't as popular, but was a bit fun when I was younger.

Plus I get to use it in every fight I get into with the wife, I just drop the, "'cause I'm the Man.", she laughs and the fight is over.

Old skewl choice- Boston. While extremely poppy and harmonic, just listen to the guitars on the first album- Marshall powered all the way.
