Lars looks like he’s 12 FFS….
Maybe because they are not teenagers?
Ramen hair was replaced by broccoli hair, because it’s healthier
Probably because most of the movies with teenager characters in the 80s had actors well into their 20s.
They look like any number of kids you’d find in an American high school today (with different clothes and haircuts).
Cliff ‘em All
They all look 12 to me, but I am nearly 60.
It’s all about your perspective. The clothes they wear and the way they style their hair makes them look old because the only people you see that look like that now *are* old people. It’s the same with every generation. Same reason certain names sound like old people names. In 60 years kids are going to hear the name ‘Aiden’ and be like “eww that’s an old man name”.

Second from the right looks 9
Exactly….old guy here saying that age is what you perceive…I grew up with that band and they looked hella mature and dangerous when I was a kid…now they look like wanna be skater kids whose voices haven’t changed yet…

True. I was 17 in 1977 (70’s I know) and looked much older than todays young people
I see young kids who happened to strike gold, so to speak. They look young because they are young. I bet none of them had a clue of what they would become. Just kids playing in a band and enjoying life. Thanks fellas.
Teenagers in their early 20’s? That will be why they look older than teenagers then.
When I was a middle school kid, they looked old. Now that I’m old, they look like middle school kids.
And then their magnum opus Master of Puppets came a year later.
Lars needing a solid punch to the face since the 80s…
I’m gonna go back in time and punch Lars
Thats a cool picture.
They look like they are in their twenties… I’m
43.. so they look young 🙂
Lars looks like he’s Cliff’s 12 year old cousin going along for the ride here lmfao.
Went to school with Cliff, never really talked to him, but just knew him as the dude in the jean jacket who played in a band. Castro Valley High.
Cliff looks like the one bad kid in the 8h grade who could grow a stache
No they look like actual children here.
Awsome!
Whatever. None of them look like they’re in their 20’s. Maybe Cliff just hit 20… barely. They all look like they’re 16-19.
*Fonzy enters the chat
> Teenagers in the 80s used to look much older…
That’s cuz 80’s-hair prematurely ages you.
And there was a brief trend for teenagers to dress “sharp”, like they were all getting up and going into the office instead of heading to high school. Pleated skirts, vests, and blazers… it was weird.
God damn, I miss Cliff.
Lars always looks like some brash tool.
“You wouldn’t steal a motorhome by downloading it for free, would you?”
Yes. Yes I would.
Confirmation – Lars looked annoying since the beginning. Good lawd
Having shot a music video with them back around that time, I can pretty much guarantee that at the time this pic was taken, the boys were drunk/high enough to not know where the fuck they were or why they were there.
They were ***very*** difficult to work with back then.
