Metal Music

[Shoden]

I've noticed a hell load of metal music fans, so which bands are your favourites and why, you can say other bands suck aslong as you explain it and stuff...

My favourite Band would Be Metallica with Slayer coming up Second.
Metallica Have some great lyrics and Hetfield sings pretty good but when you listen to him in "S&M" the album from 1999 live with the San Francisco Symphony Orchastra you'll see how powerful his lyrics can be, The guitars from Hammet and Newstead are good even though Newstead left and was replaced with with Robert Trujillo, Cliff Burton, one hell of a bassist and will never be forgotten, now what are your oppinions and your favourite Metal bands?

I prefer the Faster genres of Metal, faster and heavier guitars with powerful words = ownage IMO.

My favourite metal band has to be Black Sabbath, followed closely by Metallica. However, if you consider Tool metal (I personally don't, but a lot of people seem to) then they're my favourite band.

I'm not much of a metal fan myself, but Black Sabbath have given so much to the genre that they deserve all the praise they get. Tony Iommi has written some of the greatest riffs in rock (Iron Man, Paranoid, N.I.B) music and inspired tons of young guitar players, myself included.

Sabbath practically made Metal.

Sabbath practically made Metal.

Precisely why they contributed so much .

Fav. Metal / Hard Rock

I Love Children of Bodom right up until Alexi left, I like Black Label Society because Zakk Wylde is the man (even in rockstar I love that movie), I like Arch Enemy because the lead singer is a girl!!! and shes really cute even if she can sing like that! As I Lay Dying has the fastest double bass drummer I have ever seen in person, Lamb of God because they are the best I have seen in concert, Throwdown because they rock and their moshpits is like watching real life street fighter, Nevermore (the River Dragon solo makes my poop myself) and Killswitch Engage, Unearth, Dark Lunacy, God Forbid, Pantera, Alice in Chains and In Flames just because they are sweet.

Sorry I couldnt just choose a few I like them all too much...Hehe alice in chains and in flames, I rhymed!

Metal is great, but the bands I like are too many to list. I pretty much like every metal genre, excluding heavy metal and power metal.

I Love Children of Bodom right up until Alexi left

Alexi hasn't left, he's the singer, writer and lead guitarist, it wouldn't be CoB without him. Are you on about that other guitarist who was called Alexander or something?

And Megadeth are the greatest metal band ever, at least in my opinion.

[Ruskies]

O my bad not alexi the back up guitarist. He spit beer in the crowd and it hit me once at the roseland theater. It was grosse but I felt sorta a connection when I wiped his alcoholic saliva off my face.

O yeah pure strife that guy.

Rock Concerts

Megadeth have everything but good vocals, they rocl everywhere else, but Hmmm Musatine vs Hammet.

[fire_of_avalon]

Dave Mustaine is your god and you will love his sexy hair.

[Shoden]

If the guy didn't drink and swear so much he would of stayed in Metallica, I still think Megadeth cannot sing too well but they come up with some good lyrics.

Jason Newstead was funny, the way he bounced his head around and looked constipated when playing.

[Tempest]

My fave metal band is Metallica followed by Sabbath and Megadeath.

[Epiphany]

My Dying Bride, Moonspell, Helloween and Porcupine Tree are among my favorites. There's really way, way too many for me to name. Also, Anathema.

[Venom]

1.W.A.S.P.
2.Megadeth
3.Slayer
4.Venom
5.Anthrax
6.Metallica
7.Motley crue
