Guest Brian M Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Best Heavy Metal bands and best songs? I'll lead off with the obvious... Iron Maiden and The Number of the Beast and Run to the Hills. CRANK IT UP. You know you wanna. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icAzyx8EsKU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moos Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I might not be a big fan of Iron Maiden (prefer Metallica or Pantera even) but Run To The Hills is a great song. I just love to play it on bass or drums though I hardly have enough energy to play it on drums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet waffle Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Audioslave - Cochise. Simply awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRmsozHKL3c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moos Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I like that song. Audioslave are pretty damn good but I was disappointed when I watched a DVD with one of their concerts. The vocals were crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vocals were crap. It's a classic, I'm going to see Chris Cornell on the 5th September @ Rock City, Nottingham the vocals better be spot on then or I'll be proper pissed off.

I hope they'll be spot on because I've always thought that Cornell has a great voice so I hope he's superb live. Have fun on 5th september Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loz Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Not really a big fan of Metal and therefore the ones I do like tend to be fairly mainstream and obvious ones. SO without further ado I would say the ones I do like are (also I am not including stuff like Zeppelin as Metal as I consider that to be a) Rock and a class above Metal Black Sabbath - Paranoid Iron Maiden - Rime of the Ancient Mariner AC/DC - let There be Rock Motorhead - Ace of Spades (an appearance on The Young Ones is worth 1,000,000 album sales and three world tours!)

bjd Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 More ponce rock, not metal but it certainly was a great few years of my early teens listening to this stuff/crap. its a right of passage for any teenage boy to like rock at some stage!!!! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=DVTktiEVboU for those that havent read 'The Dirt' - read it. Now! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=pieI3ctfMfM http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ITwtMEc_FwI to be fair some of this stuff led me onto Janes Addiction, Faith No More etc which in turn led me to The Pixies and Husker Du so it all worked out for the best!

jack h Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Does Guns n Roses count as Metal? If so they surly have to go down as one of the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukasz Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Hard to tell the best but these are certainly amongst my favourites METALLICA - Wherever I may Roam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_8bixXnEDY RATM - Know Your Enemy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7LliDGIImA TOOL - Hooker With a Penis TOOL - Jimmy I've finally seen Tool live two weeks ago and it was f**king awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moos Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Love "Wherever I May Roam" too. Great song and it's really nice to play on drums or guitar (though I haven't learnt the entire song yet ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brian M Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Calling Mike O...waiting for the definitive list from you, mate! PS: Moos, here's something just for you, mate. Should put a smile on your face! http://www.apple.com/trailers/independe ... n/trailer/ http://www.airguitarnation.com/new/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrico Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Manowar - Hail and Kill, Power of my Sword, Today is a Good Day to Die Helloween - Future World, Revolution Now Judas Priest - Painkiller, Night Crawler, Touch of Evil Also some others that don't immediately come to mind... Is Deep Purple really metal? I suppose Highway Star is messy enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Anything by AC/DC or GNR for me, although some of my favourite GNR songs wouldn't be classed as metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
