The Tournament of Metal: Round 3, Bracket 6

The all-important third round is now upon us, as the top 94 songs battle it out, and this time, there's not a stinker among them. This week, we have 42 songs, with bands M-W competing.

One song--because of the odd number of songs in this bracket--gets a bye based on having a nine-point victory two weeks ago (the highest). That song is Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil."
We'll see it in competition next week.

This past week, the following metal acts left us:
  • Jon Bon Jovi (solo)
  • Bulletboys
  • Honeymoon Suite
  • Jackyl
  • Junkyard
  • Kiss
  • Lillian Axe
  • L.A. Guns
while the following headbangers soldier on, and we'll see them again in next week:
  • AC/DC
  • Aerosmith
  • Bon Jovi
  • Cinderella
  • The Cult
  • Damn Yankees
  • Def Leppard
  • Dio
  • Europe
  • Faster Pussycat
  • Guns N' Roses
  • Sammy Hagar
  • Billy Idol
  • Iron Maiden
  • Judas Priest
