Shout is often cited as the Crüe's heaviest album^{[citation needed]}, and while many elements may seem dated to modern ears, it is nevertheless a textbook example of classic heavy metal as it existed in the 80s. Many heavy metal fans consider Shout at the Devil to be among the greatest metal albums of all time^{[citation needed]}. Song topics included sex, Satanic themes, violence, youthful rebellion. In addition, the visual influence of the band in this era was palpable as their massive hair, makeup, and tough, violent imagery contributed greatly to the visual aspects of glam metal. It eventually sold over 4 million copies.^{[citation needed]}
