Your Top 10 METAL Bands

Yo metal sucks. Its just a bunch of morons screaming into a mic while some people play some instruments terribly, anyone can be a metal artist, it takes real talent to rap.:finger:
 
They were NOT heavy metal, they were NEVER heavy metal, but they were among the greatest pioneers in hard rock. Close to 1/3 of their songs were acoustic and apart from the sparse mechanical sound, there isn't too much which can be traced to metal. The lyrics, instrumentation and songwriting all points to hard rock and blues rock, but not metal.

Black Sabbath & Deep Purple are heavy metal. Led Zeppelin was NOT.
 
Hey man, don't be a hata. I'm entitled to my opinions, and besides that, I think most people would consider all of those banRAB metal to some degree. Have you even heard of Dir En Grey. They're amazing.

Also, I am glad to see Tool on so many lists. Not many mainstream music listeners recognize their greatness anymore.
 
1. Metallica.
2. Rage Against The Machine.
3. Cannibal Corpse.
4. Tool.
5. Led Zeppelin.
6. Black Sabbath.
7. Aerosmith.
8. Bullet For My Valentine.
9. System Of A Down.
10. Probot.
 
It's all about opinion though. Just because you find an album awful does'nt mean that someone else does. The inclusion of banRAB such as Cult Of Luna and Maudlin Of The Well say's to me that they have far from generic tastes. Does it really matter if a generic band find's it's way in there?
 
Thor forgives you.

And Down just sounRAB too generic to me. It's a disappointment, like Damageplan; a good musician from a good band trying something different but crapping out. While he went in the right direction trying to sound different from Pantera, he just failed for me.

But to each his own.
 
This neeRAB an update from me. I take great pleasure in bashing metal banRAB every chance I get, but there are a few I really like.

Mastadon
Pantera
Gojira
For My Pain...
Regurgitate
Iron Maiden
Tyr

...that's about it. The only other ones I kind of like are Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Megadeth, and Tool
if anyone has any reccomendations, it would be appreciated.
 
1.) Iron Maiden
2.) Opeth
3.) Pantera
4.) Megadeth
5.) Iced Earth
6.) Atheist
7.) Dragonforce
8.) Tool (if you count them as metal)
9.) Judas Priest
10.) Ensiferum or Overkill (can't decide)

I listen to a lot of metal and it's very hard for me to decide my favs.
 
Meh, I like only Metal (except for Deep Purple, they are Hard Rock), so I really don't know how to order the banRAB I like. However, I can say that my top 3 banRAB will always be Blind Guardian, Gamma Ray and Iron Maiden. Beyond that, any band can come at any place.
