Best heavy metal song ever? Or bestest ever?

Equilibrium - Mana, linked is just a sample of this 15-minute long epic saga of a song. I don't even listen to heavy metal, but I just discovered this recently and my ears simply melted. Don't think words can do it justice, just... listen!

if you're thiking thats the best heavy metal song ever i recommend some pantera for starters and then go on to some metallica and sabbath.

Clearly it's this combination.

Winter Madness - Wintersun

Then there is Megadeth. Song is very good for the solos, good subject matter too.

Juggernaut140

Sounds like European dance to me with some heavy riffs thrown in for good measure.

Holy Wars by Megadeth.

Or something by Iron Maiden.Or Strapping Young Lad.

Or maybe even Tankard.I'll go with Holy Wars for now.

In Flames - Dead End

Don't know if this is considered heavy metal; not familiar with all the metal subgenres,

two songs that are the best to me are Hangar 18 by Megadeth. That song made me realize how good metal is. Also Ensiferum's Heathen Throne is so epic and so good, I listen to it at least 3 or 4 times a day.

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] Well, it is :?Rikardur

In my day, no one would call that heavy metal. I stand by my opinion, it's too electronic sounding.

Anything from Rust in Peace - Megadeth

Pretty much anything by Gorguts/Deathspell Omega/Portal/Ulcerate. Experimental ftw:).

antiredcap

I've got a signed Rust in Peace Album with all the members at that time.

I like " gunshot to the head of trepidation" by trivium

sorry i misread the topic trivium isnt heavy metal. but they are good though

I'll go with Orgasmatron… probably the Motorhead original rather than the Sepultura version. Just an old fave of mine.

It has, however I'm not sure that crossing Metal with Michael Flatleys Riverdance is a positive step forward.

Metal is only diverse because you can lay a chunky guitar track over any form of music you can possibly imagine and bingo – you've created a new micro-genre in metal.

Possession- Whitechapel.JuggaloRandall

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...wait you're joking right?

One of the more listenable deathcore bands, but saying anything they did is "TEH BEST EVER" is just wrong.

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] Whitechapel is cool and all but nothing they've made could be considered the best metal song ever. Assassin1349

What's wrong with The Red Chord?

[QUOTE="Assassin1349"] I think the only listenable deathcore band is All Shall Perish. Their solos are tasty. Assassin1349

I don't listen to much of it either, but TRC has some great albums.

Clients, Fused Together in Revolving Doors, and Fed Through the Teeth Machine are excellent albums.

You're all wrong,
