Iron Maiden - The Wicker Man
Yeah Gojira should’ve been higher
I agree with the top 4, 3, and 2. But system of down was such a “Nu-metal” phase band.
Quoted from vid1900:#74
(the best female metal singer bar none)
JINJER - Pisces (Live Session)
Vid do you like the chick from Spiritbox?
Quoted from phil-lee:Psycho Holiday Pantera
That song is 31 years old.
Did not make the 21st century cut....
Quoted from vid1900:#9
Gojira - Stranded
Quoted from PaulCoff:This one
Saw Gojira live twice. Absolutely phenomenal band.
Way Of All Flesh is still the bed album. God damn, it slaps.
Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:Absolutely phenomenal band.
Way Of All Flesh is still the best album. God damn, it slaps.
Fact.
Disappointed no Amorphis or Liquid Tension Experiment (yeah long shot I know).. good list generally. Clearly I’m old since I expected to see Sepultura or Soulfly, even Heaven & Hell!
How is Rise Against, Bring Me The Horizon or Breaking Benjamin not on the list? Are they considered alternative?
Quoted from BigT:How is Rise Against, Bring Me The Horizon or Breaking Benjamin not on the list? Are they considered alternative?
They might be somewhere on the list, but I did not memorize the whole magazine
Download "Metal Hammer 346 pdf" if you want the entire thing to read
Metal isn’t my number one genre to listen too, but Chop Suey is such a great song imho. I can see for it won.
Quoted from vid1900:That song is 31 years old.

Sorry, time is flying by.
Happy to see Volbeat up there, and while Still Counting is a good song, they have so many better songs than that one.

Nightwish - Nemo
Glad to see Nightwish get some accolades. Their Wacken 2013 concert is legendary. Floor's rendition of Ghost Love Score during that show is probably the most used video for voice coach reactions on YouTube (skip to the 1:10:00 mark to view that masterpiece).
I think your list overlooked this heavy metal classic from the Grammy award winning head banger album 'Crest of a Knave'
Nevermind - apparently in addition to losing track of days and weeks I am now losing track of decades and centuries
From the list, I'd vote Nightwish and Mastodon.
Surprised that no Opeth or Amon Amarth songs made the list, both bands have released several excellent albums this century, so there's lots of material to choose from.
Epic Metal + Prog:
Great video work on this one, someone should make a pinball machine out of it (song starts about 25 seconds in):
Quoted from midniight:Ghost is not metal
LOL
If your biggest hit is a tribute to the 80's metal band Ratt, you are certainly trying to be metal....
Ratt - You're In Love
-
Ghost - Rats
Quoted from SLAMT1LT:Best metal song, 'Gold' by Spandau Ballet.
I think you missed the 21st century by a few decades....
Quoted from vid1900:System Of A Down being played at a Black wedding:Trust me, it's SO worth clicking....
That was worth it. So much better to see than the white supremacist assholes who are the squeakiest wheels in the metal scene nowadays. The bands aren't, but the fans have gotten way worse.

(the best female metal singer, bar none)
JINJER - Pisces (Live Session)
I agree -- and perhaps even the best metal singer, period (subjective, of course). Definitely my favorite singer right now and the entire band seems to be very talented. Hope that I can see them live someday.
Quoted from finnflash:Here is a song my 15 year old wrote. I think it might be the best song ever!! Lol
That song is great.
You should pay to have that track mixed and mastered for his birthday.
A punched up mix could get them noticed for a 2nd stage somewhere (should the USA ever get covid under control)
