Status: offline 		Who would you vote for the best metal band of "all time"? I am a die hard Slayer fan---I lost count how many times I have seen them live, checking the ticket stubs (26 times and in 6 states). I have met all the members of the band, they definately kick ass...Danzig and Overkill are my second two faves....so much metal, so little time

Status: offline 		Existing on damnation's edge
The priest had never known
To witness such a violent show
Of power overthrown

Angels fighting aimlessly
Still dying by the sword
Our legions killing all in sight
To get the one called Lord

The Gates of Hell lie waiting as you see
There's no price to pay just follow me
I can take your lost soul from the grave
Jesus knows your soul can not be saved

Crucify the so called Lord
He soon shall fall to me
Your souls are damned your God has fell
To slave for me eternally
Hell awaits...

The Reaper guard's the darkened Gates
That Satan calls his home
Demons feed the furnace where
The Dead are free to roam

Lonely children of the night
There's seven ways to go
Each leading to the burning hole
The Lucifer controls

Priests of Hades seek the sacred star
Satan sees the answer lies not far
Zombies screaming souls cry out to you
Satanic laws prevail your life is through

Pray to the moon... when it is round
Death with you shall then abound
What you seek... for can't be found
In sea or sky or underground
 
(hell awaits..SLAYER)

Meshuggah

Their latest CD "Catch Thirty-Three" is simply amazing!

Status: offline 		     Thanks    I was hoping to see Sabbath or Ozzy.  I'm still blown away by the early Metallica albums, but they've just slid down into suck since losing Burton, can't bring myself to vote for a band that has been releasing garbage for better than 15 years.  Alice in Chains are a slightly different genre, but well worth cranking up and scaring the neighbors with.

If you like to gamble
I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some
All the same to me
The pleasure is to play
Makes no difference what you say,
I don't share your greed
The only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades

Playing for the high one
Dancing with the devil
Going with the flow
It's all the same to me
Seven or Eleven
Snake eyes watching you,
Double up or quit
Double stake or split
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades

You know I'm born to lose
And gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it baby
I don't wanna live for ever
And don't forget the joker

Pushing up the ante
I know you've got to see me
Read 'em and weep
The dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes
Take one look and die
The only thing you see
You know it's gonna be
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades
 
MOTORHEAD, A REAL METAL BAND

    God bless poor Dimebag.

The weird-ass thing about the age we live in, is that you can't really put out any "offensive" rock nowadays.  After GG Allin, Cannibal Corpse, and every other group with zero socially redeeming value, nothing shocks the under-40 crowd.

No question.  Unfortunately, I dont' know that I qualify them as Heavy Metal; I consider them Alternative (though today I suppose they're Grunge, considering the crap they call Alternative today.)

I'm sorry to see the original 'Heavy Metal Thunder' band, Steppenwolf isn't listed.  The grand daddy, even if not the best, is still worth a nod as an option.

I would say Metallica, as they ushered in the Metal revolution but then they sold out in a big way.

I'll go with AC/DC then.

Stephan

Status: offline 		It's all metal (except for a few,I mean AC/DC is a rock band,no more no less).The best is in the eye of the beholder(a nod to Metallica) if there ever was one.But if you are going to talk longevity,consistency,dedication to the art form,it begins and ends with Motorhead.
I mean my favourite band is Maiden,but I cannot listen to the "Blaze" years,one or two songs excepted.But Motorhead,I mean c'mon,it's not even close.Ask Lemmy,the only band he would ever allow anyone to say was better than his was The Ramones,and he was right!
