What is your favorite metal band?

So, what is your favorite metal band? My personal favorite is Trivium. They will probably be the ones to steal the "throne" from Metallica. My second favorite isn't really metal, but some might considerate one and that is Avenged Sevenfold.

Pantera.

atm, lamb of god or machine head. protest the hero i am enjoying lately as well.

Most "metal heads" will say Metallica or Iron Maidem, I go for Dimmu Borgir, Gorgoroth or Burzum.kamil488

Of course anyone who likes METALlica/iron maiden isn't a metal head :roll:

My answer: Metallica, Children of Bodom, or Sonata Arctica.

Megadeth.

Im in a Falconer phase right now.

Devin Townsend is the correct answer. I also have a list on my blog which contains all the metal bands I love (excluding Ulver and Tom Waits for they are not metal).

Well, I am not saying your not a metal head but, some people wouldn't. When thrash and Metallica first came out, that was some hardcore **** As metal progressed, there was harder and harder stuff coming out making Metallica look like nothing. Plus, when Metallica went mainstream, it's like you can't be considered metal anymore. I will always think of them as one of the best and most innfluencial metal bands of all time. Others, not so much. Although, I think he meant that most people will say Metallica or Iron Maiden even though they haven't listened to any other bands.

Gorgoroth kamil488

thank god, there is another. Gorgoroth is freaking sweet. There is a really good interview /documentary of the lead singers, Ghaal,on youtube. Really entertaining, the guy lives on his family's property in the middle of nowhere. Its a really good view. Starts off kind of slow with some background, but once they hit the ground on Norway its really good.

As for my favorite bands, I like a bunch...Metallica, Pantera, Amon Amarth, and then some others I've heard but cant remember. Gorgoroth and Amon Amarth are problably my favorites

Don't have a direct favourite but i currently like: Tool, Mr. Bungle and Metallica.

recently it was my birthday. But here's a better shot of my swords.

Not the steel, but actually music.

Of course I do. But what good does sword fighting do me when most people just have a gun. Or worst....

A Lawyer. :(

Edge of Sanity and Opeth.

Meshuggah (Yiddish for Crazy). Can't buy an 8-string guitar in your local? Bummer.

Good list with these being by far my favorites out of this list. I can't believe Death, Atheist and Blotted Science are not in the top 10 though.

This is by far my favorite metal album ever:

My other favorite bands are Spastic Ink, Mithras, GBlotted Science, Ulver, Death, Spawn of Possession, Atheist, Blut Aus Nord, Celtic Frost, Gorguts.

RRRRRRRRRRRRRamstein! Jaa!

Crimsader

Sentenced

Charon

Moonspell

Lacrimas profundere ( older albums)

Iced Earth

Pentagram ( turkish band not the death metal one)

Penumbra

Dark traquillity

jag panzer

I can't decide among Gorgoroth, Dark throne, Dimmu Borgir, Venom, Burzumand Carpathian forest...

Blind Guardian any day,consecutivly made good albums since the 80's and the best live band going,hope new album and LOTR orchestra this year are good
