Heaviest (metal) song ever?

[kalster]

err hit enter too soon


which is the hardest heavy metal song EVAR?

 

[KLin]

I'm Fat - Weird Al Yankovic

 

[kuk]

Any data disc in a normal CD player ...

 

[rival]

dumb question

 

[Rudee]

Your question is moot! Next!

 

Gee, 4 piece of crap posts in a row, excellent.

The hardest is tough to name. Norwegian black metal is rather heavy, but most people in the states arn't very familiar with it.

I'd say some sepultura or slayer.

 

[DurocShark]

start with german bands...

 

[BurnItDwn]

Theres so many things out there I could go on and on and on forever and this is a VERY tough call ... but I'm gonna say
"Bloodbath - The Soul Collector" is the heaviest death metal track of all time.
"Abigor - Satan's Galaxy" is the heaviest black metal track of all time.

Below is just rambling and a few other suggestions and random info ....


Abigor ... My favorite Harmonic Black Metal band ... Extremely fast and insane. Be sure to listen to the Satanized and Apocalypse albums. They are both Fing awesome.

Bloodbath ... There are so many amazing death/grind bands ... but this one really stands out. The Lineup is absolutely incredible.
VOCALS: Mikael Akerfeldt (of Opeth, he also was on a couple Katatonia Albums, and Edge of Sanity Crimson),
DRUMS: Dan Swano (he is one of the greatest metal drummers of all time. If you listen to metal, you should know his name. He plays or has played for Nightengale, his own solo project, Unicorn, Edge Of Sanity, Infestdead, Odyssey and, Pan-Thy-Monium)
BASS: Jonas Renkse (of Katatonia & October Tide)
GUITAR: Anders Nyström (of Katatonia, Diabolical Masquerade, & Bewitched)

Be sure to listen to the Resurection through Carnage cd ... IMO it is the greatest death/grind CD ever. The track tittled "The Soul Collector" is most extreme.


Also ... just a few more memmorable tracks that are pretty heavy (and also well played)
Broken Hope - I am God
Isacaarum - pretty much anything by them ... Their C*** Hakners album probably has the heaviest tracks ... a good example is "Isamahaparinibbanasuttam"
Nifelheim - Unholy Death
Naglfar - The entire Diabolical CD
Nazgul - In Summis Montibus
Anything by Pigsty
Enslaved has some pretty insane stuff out

Electric Wizzard - Anything on the "Come my Fanatics" cd. They are anything but fast, however, they play an extremely extremely heavy slow stoner/doom style. Its definatly worth a listen if you are into that kind of thing.


PS ... I am only considering tracks where the band members clearly know how to play and where the music is extremely pleasant to listen to as well.

Si se calla el cantor by Malon (live version)is pretty damn hard.

 

[kalster]

bah atleast 2 interesting answers

i know its hard to pin point "THE" heaviest song but i want to know your take on it


I have a couple of slayer albums, ANGEL OF DEATH is pretty heavy

I haven't been exposed to much black metal, i listen to opeth a lot and they are kinda heavy in weird way i guess

 

[BurnItDwn]

hmmm ... I dont think I included any German bands above ... well here are a few of the heaviest german bands

Agathodaimon, Ancient Ceremony, Bethlehem ,Empyrium, Falkenbach ,Haggard, Kreator, Obscenity, Sodom, Ungod, Unlord





EDIT and attitional note: Opeth is my favorite band ever ... but I do not consider then te be very heavy. They are somewhat calm and soothing to listen to.

 

[EyeMWing]

Borknagar - Ruins of the Future.

 

[Schadenfroh]

"cross-eyed mary" Jethro Tull

 

[thomsbrain]

"DragonRape" by Satan's Bloodlet.

 

[BurnItDwn]

hmmm ... Borknagar ... they kick butt

 

[Eli]

Depends on your definition of "heavy".

Some people consider fast, crunchy palm-muted riffs to be heavy, some consider slow(in comparison) growling power chords to be heavy.

 

[KGB1]

mehh... Mexicano Metal beats the living day lights out of norwegian/deucthsland metal bands.

Seriously though man, rockers from the southern western hemisphere kick some a$$ (I have yet to figure out what makes them so angst :confused)

 

[deftron]

Top 3:

Black Sabbath - "War Pigs"

Eyehategod - "My Name is God (I Hate You)"

Electric Wizard - "Return Trip"


Honorable Mention:

Sleep - "Jerusalem" (52 minutes long!)

Heavy, as in listening through the album feels like getting run over by a bulldozer? Marduk's Panzer Division, Belphegor's Lucifer Incestus, Vital Remains' Dechristianize, Meshuggah has some pretty heavy stuff... as does Cryptopsy, Nile and many other Death Metal bands.

Oh, and Mortician You have to suffer of some kind of a mental defect if you can listen through a whole album

Slayer would be the king of heavy riffs, followed by Pantera.
