Fave heavy metal band?

[sunwaiter]

still black sabbath. but to be honest, few songs make me feel like iron maiden's "hallowed be thy name" on the live after death.

Iron Maiden

For me also pantera.


flow turning

[Cheekers1989]

I like Dir en Grey (Japan) and Slipknot. Does Apocalyptica count?

Thats a tough question because so many bands make me want to bang my head. But, in my mind your favorites are the ones you keep going back to time and time again over the years. So, in no particular order:

Sabbath w/OZZY-Although Heaven and Hell is definitely a masterpiece.
EARLY Metallica-1st 3 Albums
Ozzy solo w/Randy on guitar
Iron Maiden-Everything up to Seventh Son
Judas Priest
CELTIC FROST-Have you heard the "Monotheist" CD they came out with in 2006? Whoa!
Slayer
Venom (ok theyre pretty much a joke-but damn!)

Many more get honorable mention.

i'm discovering slayer, judas priest and other things thanks to deezer. i've always been a black sabbath fan, and yes, only the ozzy line-up. i purchased my sg mainly because of toni iommi i guess. i have to listen to heaven and hell again.

i have to listen to heaven and hell again.

YES you do....classic metal album!!!!!!!!

[littlenicky]

For me i would say Lamb of God as an overall favorite, especially since their new album has come out.

But also high up on my list i would say: Dimmu Borgir and Eluveitie
