Overused word that meant almost anything 'good' or 'great'. Can be used alone or with other words.
Used unkindly by punk rockers as "Look at that stupid hesher over there with the Megadeth album.", I have no idea where it comes from. (ed: any suggestions?) One suggestion came from Michael: In Los Angeles word was in use as early as 1980. I remember being a big "Tubes" fan and describing the people that wore "Rush" concert baseball shirts (black with white sleeves), drove Camaros and wore mullet haircuts as Heshers. If I had to guess the orgin; I would say it was because Heshers used to smoke a lot of hash (Hasher - Hesher?). Hash was very popular in Los Angeles in the late 70's. (ed: Any advance on that?)
