Top 5 Metal bands

I respect your choices But can you tell me what makes them real metal, please? I promise I'm not looking for a reason to bash your choices, I just wanna know.

 

We all like real metal here..I like your list but I don't think that Guns n' roses are metal..they are more hard rock..and zeppelin kicks ass..nice list..

 

Led Zep were a rock band, ignoramus.

 

Might as well mention that guns n roses is hard rock, as was poison, primarily.

 

Alright, lets see... Top 5 bands.

At the Gates
Emperor
Bathory
Einherjer
and Amon Amarth

Those were in no particular order I might add.

 

Opeth!!!!
The Dillinger Escape Plan
Behold...The Arctopus
Katatonia
From A Second Story Window

Those are the bands that will always be with me(especially Opeth)but lately I've been listening to Dimmu Borgir, The Red Chord and Between the Buried and Me

 

I've really been getting into Opeth a hell of a lot recently. I have to admit they are original and fuckin unique.

 

I've never gotten into them, even saw them live once at Wacken. Bored me to death.

 

That's how I used to feel. But listen to them when you're tripping and you'll understand that MUST be what their music is for. Nice lengthy songs packed with changes and transitions.

 

I don't listen to metal a bunch but here are some bands:

Dimmu Borgir
Velvet Acid Christ
:wumpscunt:
Sepultura
Morbid Angel

 

It's just not my cup of tea. I like to toke while listening to lengthy songs, but not Opeth's.

 

I love them sober, but after a fat J they become that much better man.

 

LoL... No, I'm not really into Opeth.

 

lol, I am. Mikael Akerfeldt would kick your ass

 

Mikey would go down faster than danzig when he met up with Northside Kings.

 

Hahahaha,I think that I should stop listening to them...

 

I don't remember where I found that image, but I did laugh at it for a bit. I have only heard any considerable amount of Opeth on Ghost Reveries, I couldn't get into it, I didn't like the vocal tone, which is unfortunate, as they seem to be decent musicians. If I gave them more of a chance, they may grow on me, but right now I'm quite happy going through Kreator's discography.

 

You don't have to like every decent musician's music.

 

Of course not, but I do like diversity, and my music collection ranges from old country to extreme metal, to underground rap.

 

I like diversity very much too..I don't like all Opeth songs,but only some songs like Drapery Falls and Master's Apprentice are nice..do you think that this pic down has been seen by many people?? lol
