Masterpieces of Heavy Metal.

[MiracleOfSound]

Alot of Devin Townsends stuff, alot of Deaths stuff, all of city by Strapping Young Lad, Kings to come by alghazanth, all o f Ocean Machine by Devin Townsend, all songs off of Inme's last 2 albums.

I love you.

hey! Unable, we have a Dev fan over here!

Just got through Deconstruction for the first time, his best work since City in my opinion. And Ghost is massaging my brain after the insanity.

 

[xplosive59]

Yeah im gonna go see Devin on the 9th of August with Dave McPherson who is also a musical genius, hes doing an all acoustic gig so alot of ghost and Ki and hopefully an acoustic version of Hide Nowhere, yeah he is a musical genius but he deserves more credit.

Awesome yeah, in a earlier post i said im gonna see him on the 9th of august, driving about 300 miles to where the gigs at but should be worth it, the best part is is that its a tiny venue so there will only be about 300-500 people, also with Dave McPherson (whos band INME are amazing you should check them out if you like proggressive technical stuff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr0jaJG2NmM). should be a great night.

 

[Alkaline]

Here's some songs that are close to my heart:

Spoiler

I've got so many that it'd be impossible to list 'em all.

Also, hey Unable. Hey Novs.

 

[cocoadog]

Ima just post gojira in everyone of these threads. Best metal out there nowadays.

 

[Death_Korps_Kommissar]

Right:

Spoiler: Meshuggah-Bleed

Spoiler: Meshuggah-New Millenium Cyanide Christ

Spoiler: Guilt Machine-Perfection?

Spoiler: Opeth-The Grand Conjuration

Spoiler: Dethklok-Bloodlines

Spoiler: System of a Down-Aerials

I'm kinda burned out on metal lately, the cheese is just really getting to me.

 

[Shuichi_boy]

Being a fan of the sub-genre of symphonic metal, I'm going to have to go with Ghost Love Score by Nightwish. Gives me the chills every time I hear it. But only if it's Tarja singing it.

 

[Wayneguard]

1) Into the Pit - Testament

Like 50% of metal songs are about metal or being a metalhead... and this is the best of them.

2) Slayer - Postmortem/Raining Blood

Specifically, the transition between postmortem and the intro to raining blood. Fucking god I love that part... DUN DUN DUN dunnanana nuhnana nuhnana DUN DUN DUN dunnanana nuhnana nuhnana \m/(>.<)\m/

3) Marty Friedman's solo in Tornado of Souls

Dear god... just Marty Friedman... how... do you do... GAH MARTY FRIEDMAN!!!

 

[burningdragoon]

Man, almost feel like posting a DragonForce song just to get people to stop arguing of Slipknot >.>

hmmm, I dunno kinda had the songs I came in here thinking about have already been covered, so how about this

edit: oh and people bringing up megadeth, maybe take a gander at my location...

 

[jpoon]

For me an absolute masterpiece of metal is Opeth's - Reverie/Harlequin Forest Excellent clean lyrics, fantastic mellow interludes, awesome fucking metal sections and some fierce growls when needed! They have so many awesome songs but this one still tops out as one of my favorite Opeth songs.

 

[Gardenia]

Funeralopolis - Electric Wizard


Amazing amount of energy crammed into a slow song, without harming the stoner doom ambiance by being too peppy. A real tightrope act EW walks to perfection.

Hell yes. Although Return Trip is probably my favourite.

100% fucking agree right there. This thread also has a serious lack of Immortals At the Heart of Winter in it.

MANOWAR!

You are now my best friend.

 

[WhatIsThisIDontEven]

I The Jury by Grand Magus

Best guitar solo ever

 

[violent_quiche]

2) Slayer - Postmortem/Raining Blood

Specifically, the transition between postmortem and the intro to raining blood. Fucking god I love that part... DUN DUN DUN dunnanana nuhnana nuhnana DUN DUN DUN dunnanana nuhnana nuhnana \m/(>.<)\m/

I'm surprised it took 90+ replies to finally get ninja'd, but well played. Just insert the whole Reign In Blood album, 37 minutes of thrash perfection.
Nice to see they are still kicking

[Mekado]

I'm gonna go with

In Flames - Man made God

And Sonata Arctica - Mary-Lou (or pretty much anything they did...)

 

[HarvesterofSorrow]

Crack the Skye - Mastodon
Master of Puppets - Metallica
Red album and Blue record - Baroness
System of a Down - System of a Down (not sure if its metal)
