Thread: Top 10 Favorite Metal Bands

As much as I like my colored music, these bands strike a chord in me:

AC DC
System of a Down
Faith No More

Um, that's about it. And I really need to be in the mood (unless its ACDC)

Yea, it was pretty good. Sort of wish they could of just ironed things out and got back in Sep but CC will do just as well.

Metallica
Guns N Roses
Iron Maiden
Ozzy Osbourne
Ratt
Def Leppard (Up to Pyromania...Everything after sucks)

Not a huge metal fan (more traditional/garage rock guy), but here's a few in no particular order:

Metallica
Guns N Roses (borderline rock and metal)
Killswitch Engage
Ozzy Osbourne
Pantera

Dokken
Scorpions
Dio
Megadeth
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Manowar
Helloween

I see no one has put up children of bodom.

This is my favorite band they have been around for about ten years I've only known of them for about 3 and still cannot get enough of it. They are from finland.

Here are a few songs

Decent band, Alexi is a great guitarist. If you like that style of metal be sure to check out the bands Skyfire, Mors Principium Est, Norther, and Chain Collector.

What would qualify as metal? It's kinda grey when the alt/goth bands get in the mix. The bands I like best that I would think would qualify as metal would be:

Metallica
Ratt
Avenged Sevenfold
Nightwish
Evereve

I'll have to think of more later.

There is way to many genres of metal and alot of people bitch about newer stuff and call it something else but if it is harder and has some nice guitar riffs it is all metal to me. It is just easier to call it all metal. Children of Bodom is called melodic death metal but metal is alot easier to say.

Tesla

Everbody is else interchangeable 2 through 10.

In no specific order

Parkway Drive
I Killed the Prom Queen
Darkest Hour
Bleeding Through
In This Moment
August Burns Red
All That Remains
Katatonia
October Tide
The Human Abstract
