Poll: Best Metal Song
-
"Best" requires perfection IMO. A crappy voice doesn't cut it. I'm not saying the music is bad, but it won't get past the comparative form of good. :) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.
You can't tell me that metal gets any better than the live version of Overkill on "25 and alive - Boneshaker". The best does not mean that all the parts are perfect, but that they come together to form one glorious whole. Christian I have drunk the cool-aid and found it wan and bitter. - Chris Maunder

For you metalheads, I pose this question. What is your all-time favorite metal tune? It's a tie between Metallica's Master of Puppets, and Maiden's Hallowed Be Thy Name for me. BW CP Member Homepages

So I'll just offer up some that are in 3rd or 4th place :) Peace Sells - Megadeth ...And Justice For All - Metallica For Whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica 2 Minutes to Midnight - Iron Maiden Among the Living - Anthrax Am I Evil? - Diamond Head Perilous Nation - Testament

Well I can tell you, but not necessarily convince you. ;) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

Fair comment. It all comes down to taste. I personally prefer Judas Priest to Iron Maiden, because they have a marginally better singer, and because their guitarists can actually play good solos. The average Iron Maiden solo I can learn in about an hour, a Priest solo takes more like a week. Christian I have drunk the cool-aid and found it wan and bitter. - Chris Maunder

I think, that if you ever heard Zoon by The Nefilim, you'd quickly realize that it's probably the best metal songs ever produced. It's not a clean metal song per se, it's got a gothic undertone to it. I'm not 100% convinced that Zoon is better than all songs made by Iron Maiden, but I'm convinced that it's 10 times better than Hetfield's wettest dreams. :) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

Please note that the song is actually divided into two tracks on the album: * Zoon (Parts 1 & 2 - Saturation) and * Zoon (Part 3 - Wake World) If you find a song named only Zoon, it's most likely a very bad recording from Saturnalia live album. Although the live version is a very good song, it doesn't do the album version justice as the "sound image" (can I say that? :~ ) is very rich and much is lost live. Also, pay attention to the lyrics. This ain't no picnic/happy camper-lyrics. :) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

There has never been a good metal "tune" X|

Is it true that if you play that sort of music in the henhouse, they lay hard boiled eggs? Heard in Bullhead City - "You haven't lost your girl -
you've just lost your turn..." [sigh] So true... -

I've got the whole album. (Thank You Rhapsody[^] :) ) Shhhh.... quiet now, the song begins. Lights dim. Atmospheric pads, clean guitar line open.....and Bass.... "I've been waiting for you" BW CP Member Homepages

Rhapsody seems like a mighty fine service! Definately worth paying for! This is how music should be delivered. I only care for physical albums of those artists I really like. Enjoy! (Xodus and Shine are great tracks too - you'll notice them) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.
