I too like ZZ Top. Eliminator is freakin' amazing. Who can't like classics like Got me Under Pressure?Sonicron said:
Also, no Accept yet Escapist? Really? I am disappoint. Let me rectify that situation.
I'll see your beardless Mr Beard and raise you a more enthusiastic drummer.Sonicron said:
It's like the spirit of Chris Farley settled in a wedding party covers band
honestly, there's something about this guy that just makes my day, he just seems to LOVE his job!
Not a big fan of rock, but I am a passionate fan of metal. In particular, the genres of old school death metal, pagan black metal and epic doom. I also like some others such as National Socialist black metal (the Polish scene especially), heavy/power metal (not so much though), technical death metal as long as it isn't shit like Necrophagist or Viraemia, a few slam death metal bands (though when you've heard one, you've heard most of them) and even a few nu-metal and groove metal bands I listened to when I was younger. I won't make a list of the bands I listen to though, because it'd be about 300 names long.
Now this is my kind of thread! I like almost all the bands that have been posted here, excluding all the death metal and black metal and whatever other similar stuff was posted, but I'll put up some videos by the bands that haven't already got videos here.

Here's one of Pink Floyd's heavier outings, in the spirit of the more hard rock/heavy metal nature of this thread:
Definately not their best album, but easily one of the Irish rocker's best tracks, for me anyway:
I'm seeing a lot of Sabbath in this thread. It pleases me. Have some maor:
Insert witty Caruso-ism here:
Can't go wrong with some Motorhead:
And this bird you can not chaaayaaange. Half song, half solo, all awesome:
In the days of my youth, I was told what it means to be a man. Which is a bit wierd, since I'm a girl. *shrugs* Still, great track, brilliant couple of solo's there:
Magnificent instrumental from the Brazilian thrash legends:
Had to be done. Had to be done:
It's Death, what else can you say:
Not sure if this is really old enough to be designated a classic, but it deserves to be one in my book. A simply beautiful song, with one of the most emotive and iconic screams heard in Metal:
Okay, while there are endless other bands I can site, I don't think I should eat up any more of this page than I already have.

Watched the Lemmy documentary this morning and decided to post one of my favorite Motorhead songs.
No one can beat Dio and Zeppelin. I can spend hours listening to the greatest singer of all time. It's too bad that he died so soon.
Greatest song ever - Rainbow's (Dio at vocals) Stargazer. Simply unbeatable.

<- I think my avatar speaks for itself. But besides that, most of these guys Who cries for Dio? I do.
Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin... Classics, but then there are bands and genres not very well known: Sludge, Doom and Stoner metal in particular.
Electric Wizard (Doom metal)
Weedeater (Sludge metal)
Kyuss (Stoner metal)
I recommend these bands as an introduction inside these genres.
And if you are in to ambient music that is one of a kind, mixing (from Wikipedia) Folk music, Black metal and Doom metal (no shredds or heavy bass drum) that ranges from guitar playing with the sounds of water running to some one of a kind mix of instruments/vocals I recommend Agalloch.
