Favorate Metal Bands

About 2 years ago i was introduced into metal and I have never looked back imust admidt I am mostly into EPic Metal and I consider Death Metal to mostly be on the same level as gangsta rap (crap).

My favorate bands are Slayer, Manowar, Hammer Fall.

I tend like to NWOBHM bands more so.
Judas Priest
SAXON
Iron Maiden
Motorhead
Deep Purple *so obviously metal*
Black Sabbath

British people love their Metal.
They threw balloons and bottles full of urine while chanting "Death to false Metal" at Trivium when they were touring with Maiden.

Yup, you can't go wrong with the Britts.

Metallica, nuff said.

I can't listen to Manowar without laughing my head off. POWER. MIGHT. THOR. STEEL. BATTLE. TRUTH. STEEL AGAIN. Repeat.

Manowar? Hammerfall? You're kidding, right?

Oh wait, you're being serious...
How can eat this crap?


It's the Swedish Women's Curling team for growling out loud (crying is for emoes)!!

Let me show you the light, my brother.

Kiljan Arslan and hunter260859, good bands.

I've been listening to a lot of Folk Metal recently. Anyway, my list is:

Sodom (80's demos and albums)

I pearsonally say that 300 should have been scored with Manowar songs.

Metallica
Megadeth
Iron Maiden
Opeth
Slayer
Testament
Orphaned Land
Haggard
Dream Theater
Children Of Bodom
Death
Van Halen
Skid Row
Black Sabbath
In Flames

Tiamat
Ancient Rites

Metallica
Manowar
Amon Amarth
Dimmu Borgir
Rammstein
In Extremo
Subway to Sally
(last two aren't purely metal)


Those should be my favourites, but there are many more I listen to from time to time

agreed

all metal is quite hilarious.

****IN SLAYER

Im not a huge metal fan (especially death metal), but you can't go wrong with Metallica.

@your lame sister

SoaD is NOT metal.

SOAD is a mix of stuff, but metal is usually the dominant style. just listen to 'BYOB', 'attack!' 'toxicity' and 'Chop suey'.

I'm really into the old-school metal, I just think that all the new screaming stuff is crap.

Here are a few of mine:

Judas Priest <--- Favorite, best Heavy Metal band EVER! Period!
Iron Maiden <--- Close 2nd
Helloween <--- Power Metal at its best ('86-'90 my favorite: the 'classic' era!)
Saxon
Accept
Samson
W.A.S.P.
AC/DC <--- Though not TRUE Heavy Metal, they fit in with the crowd nicely!
Ratt <--- The "Glam" aspect leaves much to be desired though...
Anthrax
Megadeth <--- Best Thrash Group ever, Megadeth OWNS Metallica
DragonForce
Hammerfall
Deep Purple
Rainbow
Dio
Black Sabbath
Diamond Head
Blue Cheer
Led Zeppelin
Def Leppard
The Scorpions
Guns 'n Roses
L.A. Guns
Dokken
Queensrÿche
Ozzy Osbourne
Spinal Tap <--- For a "spoof" group, they have some good tunes: Stonehenge
Rush <--- Heavy Metal or not, no metalhead can deny Rush!!!
