Interesting. I remember the Zeros but can't recall a single note.
I'll have to revisit. Similar to those guys, my first experience with
Enuff Znuff was their glam metal side on Mtv. But, they've definitely
put out their share of powerpop.
An on the Motley/Hanoi/Glam side of things, there's a band in Seattle
right now called The Greatest Hits that I think is doing really fun
stuff that probably would've been marketed as Sunset Strip if they'd
come out back then. But they're really equal parts Dolls, Hanoi
Rocks, Ramones and The Sweet. See:

There's actually a mini powerpop/glam scene in Seattle that I can get
down with that includes bands like The Knast, The Greatest Hits,
Avenue Rose, the Cute Lepers and others. A little more punk than
powerpop, but mostly the same train on slightly different tracks (or
different train on the same tracks -- I'm not sure which makes my
point better...)
