BigHans: 100 Greatest Metal Songs

BigHans 04.25.11	FUCK YES ARTWORK
anarchistfish 04.25.11	Nice
Oathbreaker 04.25.11	Needs more good music and less of the same OLD thing.
BigHans 04.25.11	Needs you to FOAD
Oathbreaker 04.25.11	You're so mean...
fr33convict 04.25.11	Awesome list. Three more I would have included that would basically fit right in with your list: Black Sabbath - Hole in the Sky Acid Bath - Finger Paintings of the Insane At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul Pantera - Domination
Rev 04.25.11	needs less thrash
fr33convict 04.25.11	oops i meant four not three
BigHans 04.25.11	You're so mean... ^ I get pretty protective of my manly/classic metal. Who said needs less thrash? LESS THRASH?????
MunsuLight 04.25.11	Only one Death Metal song here -_- About zero prog metal songs. Zero Black metal too. I know you put some bands that almost everyone knows, but this lists lacks METAL.. Good list, but I would've put more diversity
quartermil 04.25.11	pretty good
BigHans 04.25.11	Not a fan of Prog Metal Death is the only death metal band I can stand. Black metal is for fags, although I love alot of the black metal fappers on the site. Just hate the fucking music.
quartermil 04.25.11	what about some hair metal?
BigHans 04.25.11	I had to leave off hair metal or I would have been tempted to put like 30 songs on it. Besides hair metal is basically hard rock to me anyway.
taroo 04.25.11	Cool list
ConsiderPhlebas 04.25.11	1 is 1. List is awesome.
MunsuLight 04.25.11	I agree with hair metal being more hard rock. Though some Motley Crue songs really kick ass
AngelofDeath 04.25.11	Not bad. At least you got some Budgie.
BigHans 04.25.11	yeah I love the Crue, probably 2nd biggest Crue fanboy on the site after Spirit, but if I would have put Crue on, I would have had to put Scorpions, Tesla, Leppard, etc as well
MO 04.25.11	excellent list, love the metuhlz
anarchistfish 04.25.11	"About zero prog metal songs." Um....35, 98?
Ovrot 04.25.11	Not enough thrash. Also, WTF 90?
BigHans 04.25.11	Redneck rules hard Ovrot. List has tons of THRASH
Relinquished 04.25.11	at least this is "your" top 100 metal songs and not "the" top 100 metal songs list because no way in hell would Deftones be on it
Satellite 04.25.11	awesome list. should i make a punk spinoff? y/n
BigHans 04.25.11	HS, I have not heard Beg to Differ. Only have Cleansing and Prove You Wrong.
BigHans 04.25.11	awesome list. should i make a punk spinoff? y/n ^ Absolutely, I need a punk guidebook for summer.
anarchistfish 04.25.11	>Not enough thrash. >Also, WTF 90? Um....
MunsuLight 04.25.11	"Um....98?" Tool is not really prog metal though you can disagree about it.
Tyrael 04.25.11	2-10 is more or less what my top 9 would look like. Good job and good taste BigHans.
BigHans 04.25.11	I consider Tool to be Alt Metal. Really the only Prog Metal song I have on here is The Moor.
FatChickIrl 04.25.11	uhg
Tyrael 04.25.11	Oh and btw what is 14 doing here? I thought you hated black metal...
MunsuLight 04.25.11	I consider Tool to be Alt Metal.[2] Kinda progressive sometime though. It's not your run-of-the-mill alt metal band. For Prog metal, I retract what I said. Opeth's The More Yeah. Or maybe Queensrysche if we say they kinda pionnered the style
xenocide. 04.25.11	I love you for 46 & 98, Hans.
BigHans 04.25.11	Oh and btw what is 14 doing here? I thought you hated black metal... ^ I dont consider them to be Black Metal. Maybe they are, I don't know exactly how to classify them. I just know that song rules hard, especially the riffffffff
Tyrael 04.25.11	Yep that album is considered a black metal classic (not traditional BM ofc) and it's one of my personal favourite albums of all time. Therefore I must agree with you =].
MunsuLight 04.25.11	@Tyraelxy. They've put the idea for black metal but aren't really black metal. All the pionners of every metal genre we're not really the genre itself. I don't know how to put it in other words. My english is seriously lacking some vocabulary sometimes
BigHans 04.25.11	To me Mercyful Fate sounds like a cross between thrash, power, and NWOBHM
MunsuLight 04.25.11	Agreeing with that description.
anarchistfish 04.25.11	""Um....98?" Tool is not really prog metal though you can disagree about it. " Really? I thought they were widely accepted as prog-metal..
Baphomet 04.25.11	Holy crap this was a great effort. I don't like/have heard half of these but still nice job.
BigHans 04.25.11	Baph you should Youtube 80, song is hilarious
demigod! 04.25.11	awesome list but Tool and SOAD are not metal
demigod! 04.25.11	neither are deftones
Baphomet 04.25.11	@Hans: Hilarious ala Steel Panther?
BigHans 04.25.11	Find out for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCaN3182pfI
MunsuLight 04.25.11	They(TOOL, SOAD, Deftones) are metal in the sense of kinda alternative metal, nu-metal.
BigHans 04.25.11	I consider Deftones to be Nu Metal/Alt Metal Pretty much the same with SOAD. Tool = Alt/Progressive Metal
JamieTwort 04.25.11	Awesome list Hans, there's only about 5 on here I haven't heard.
BigHans 04.25.11	Which ones would those be? You should You Tube them post-haste
savagecabbage 04.25.11	good list, must have taken some time. Sputnik should compensate your efforts.
BigHans 04.25.11	THey usually do
JamieTwort 04.25.11	The ones I haven't heard (well at least not to my knowledge) are: 11, 54, 68, 78 and 98.
BigHans 04.25.11	I think you would like them alot Jamie. 68 rawks hard
Yotimi 04.25.11	88 should be Replica...but good job man
BigHans 04.25.11	I actually havent listened to 78 in awhile, song rapes
Spec 04.25.11	Song's gonna get 25 to life.
LepreCon 04.25.11	Who cares if everyone's heard them. Who cares if they're not 'hip' or 'current' enough Who cares that most of Sputnik prefers bad metal to the good shit on this list. List is awesome. And 1 is 1.
Dodenakker 04.25.11	78 is the best song on this list..
Tyrael 04.25.11	Define bad metal.
LepreCon 04.25.11	^Gay And maybe bad metal was the wrong term to use, I was thinking more along the lines of all the shitty metulcoar that everyone thinks is 'real' metal roflmao
someguest 04.25.11	metal played on the radio is the best guys
WeepingBanana 04.25.11	Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis song kicks so much ass
Tyrael 04.25.11	'I was thinking more along the lines of all the shitty metulcoar that everyone thinks is 'real' metal' a7x?
LepreCon 04.25.11	Ugh no A7X are just plain shite Forgive me if I'm not making sense I'm a bit drunk cuz me and the guys are pre-drinking so hard before we hit the town for the Bank Holiday evening
FearThyEvil 04.25.11	Damn good list although, some of it was predictable.
Tyrael 04.25.11	Lol ok Conor, have fun ;)
BigHans 04.25.11	metal played on the radio is the best guys ^ Pre 1995, you're damn right it does.
someguest 04.25.11	not enuf emoshun
Emim 04.25.11	needz sum opethhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Inveigh 04.26.11	such a badass list needs moar Cathedral. but that could also just be that i'm jamming them right now.
InjunJoe 04.26.11	BigHans are you 50 years old? FUCK!
Wizard 04.26.11	Needs whole album of 'Origo' by Burst to be even close to complete.
Mewcopa0 04.26.11	sorry hans. metal just ain't your thing.
dimsim3478 04.26.11	Really awesome list.
Maniac! 04.26.11	too much slayer, 54 is not a metal song
BigHans 04.26.11	BigHans are you 50 years old? FUCK! ^ 30. But close. sorry hans. metal just ain't your thing. ^ The only metal in your pie chart is black and death so I can see why you wouldn't like this list. Unfortunately I feel the same way about those genres as you do mine. 54 is not a metal song ^ Its heavier than most of Sabbath's ballads, and its done by a band that falls in a sub metal genre, so therefore its metal to me.
Maniac! 04.26.11	lol comparing deftones to sabbath
Maniac! 04.26.11	My point is that 54 contains very little-to-no metal influences whatsoever.
BigHans 04.26.11	My point is that 54 contains very little-to-no metal influences whatsoever ^ Except for the screams/riffs in the chorus.
KILL 04.26.11	dude metal fist hard to this list but some gay picks such as deftones
wabbit 04.26.11	...I like Warning and Jane Doe. Actually Sabbath, Metallica and Faith no more are pretty sweet. Also where the fuck are the Melvins?
BigHans 04.26.11	THRASH FIST
BigHans 04.26.11	Also where the fuck are the Melvins? ^ Only album I have from them is Houdini and aside from a few songs I think it sucks.
KILL 04.26.11	honestly though our taste is so close in metal hard
BigHans 04.26.11	Yeah KILL only real difference is you like Death and I like the Alt stuff and you probably Thrash harder but honestly its impossible to thrash harder than you so I do what I can.
Maniac! 04.26.11	"^ Except for the screams/riffs in the chorus." 1. Screams =/= metal 2. Those riffs do not come off as metal. In fact they sound shoegazey,
Maniac! 04.26.11	"^ Only album I have from them is Houdini and aside from a few songs I think it sucks." Just... Just... go jump off a fucking cliff
BigHans 04.26.11	Honey Bucket >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the rest of the album.
ConsiderPhlebas 04.26.11	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3D_Zb7qwnI
BigHans 04.26.11	Cool song John
ConsiderPhlebas 04.26.11	I prefer that side of the Melvins to their other stuff
BigHans 04.26.11	Yeah predictably I like them alot more when they just straight rawk and dont try to get fucking cute and experimental.
Nagrarok 04.26.11	mumble no 2 Minutes to Midnight mumble
Nagrarok 04.26.11	double post
KILL 04.26.11	dude gota have the prince somewhere too m/
Tyrael 04.26.11	mumble no The Clansman mumble
KILL 04.26.11	rushs first album was basically dm in 73
BigHans 04.26.11	2 Minutes to Midnight almost made it. I dont love the Clansman, its alright though.
Nagrarok 04.26.11	But Hans, it's at least a top 5 Maiden song and you've got 7 of them.
BigHans 04.26.11	I would consider changing it out for Phantom of the Opera but that would fuck up the artwork.
Nagrarok 04.26.11	Fair enough, in any case list rules in metal fashion.
BigHans 04.26.11	Indeed
KILL 04.26.11	wait where the hell is exciter
theacademy 04.26.11	arite, you got me here... first 25: 1. Sucks 2. Sucks 3. Decent 4. Way better than 3 5. Way better than 4 6. Great but not as good as 5 7. Better than anything else here 8. idk 9. lol 10. this being below fade to black is pretty disgusting 11. mad respect 12. lol 13. solid but too high 14. ditto 15. double ditto 16. how is this below fucking crazy train 17. how is this below ANY FUCKING SONG EVER 18. faggot 19. meh 20. Great song but too high 21. Dreadful song 22. Tits 23. Should have used Coheed’s version as it is awesome and this song is barely fucking listenable 24. Aite with this 25. idk
dnor 04.26.11	#1 is #1 [2]
theacademy 04.26.11	crazy train isn't even among ozzy's top 10 best solo tracks i mean its fun in that my mom doesn't hate it that much, but c'mon
YetAnotherBrick 04.26.11	I approve this list, except for 90.
theacademy 04.26.11	ill be honest, this list needs a fuckload more sweden
Emim 04.26.11	"23. Should have used Coheed’s version as it is awesome and this song is barely fucking listenable" fuck no. that's the best song on MoP
Poet 04.26.11	Not enough Metallica or Megadeth.
Counterfeit 04.26.11	60 is my least favorite on the album, but still rules.
KILL 04.26.11	poets just mad cos dave kicked his ass in 93
BigHans 04.26.11	lol Academy. That line about Coheed's cover of a Metallica song being better is definitely the dumbest thing you've ever said on Sputnik.
BigHans 04.26.11	crazy train isn't even among ozzy's top 10 best solo tracks ^ Its the RIFFFFFFFF
BigHans 04.26.11	lol Acad its very loosely ranked. As in I put them in pretty much randomly.
theacademy 04.26.11	i don't think motley crue has ever written a song worse than master of puppets and crue has put out some terrible shit
theacademy 04.26.11	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRg6gNWhxZU fitting.
BigHans 04.26.11	Fuck Fuel, one of my least favorite Metallica songs. And lmfao at that Crue comment
BigHans 04.26.11	What about this one ACAD? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2F5piurv-0 BIZKIT DOING SANITARIUM
eggsvonsatan 04.26.11	List is pretty generic. It seems like 1/2 of it is from the Big 4.
theacademy 04.26.11	LB's version is superior tho
BigHans 04.26.11	LBs version is pretty cool but they didnt even do the solo prolly cause Borland is no Hammet and couldnt do it properly, BOOM
BigHans 04.26.11	List is pretty generic. It seems like 1/2 of it is from the Big 4. ^ 38 of them are from Metallica, Megadeth, Sabbath, Maiden, and Priest. The 5 greatest metal bands ever for a reason.
theacademy 04.26.11	if i was making this list probably 50 would come from pantera and megadeth, the two greatest metal bands ever for a reason
BigHans 04.26.11	tbh I should have put more Pantera on here Probably Regular People (Conceit) and maybe By Demons Be Driven or 5 Minutes Alone
theacademy 04.26.11	floods.
BigHans 04.26.11	COLD HEARTED WORLDDDDDDDDDDD
theacademy 04.26.11	of course i like sabbath. sabbath, slayer, motorhead, dio metalmetalmetal just obv pantera/megadeth are on another level
BigHans 04.26.11	not liking Maiden = fail
BigHans 04.26.11	At least Acad likes Skid Row, it has kept him alive so far.
JamieTwort 04.26.11	Regular People (Conceit) is one of my favourite Pantera songs and 5 Minutes Alone pretty much defines manly metal.
theacademy 04.26.11	why would I listen to maiden when I could listen to priest. or other good music. maiden is seriously like a long, unfunny joke. It's like BBC television. Good for hipster tools to talk about, bad for people who listen to music they like. Maiden is the kind of metal that looks good on a t-shirt still because it hasn't been co-opted by avril lavigne and mtv. but honestly its fucking terrible. even the best of it is like the gayest shit ever. Even rednecks who claim to like maiden only do so because they think they're from texas. Pantera actually is from texas. Texas for fucking ever.
BigHans 04.26.11	Yes it does @ jamie Acad is retard
BigHans 04.26.11	is seriously like a long, unfunny joke. It's like BBC television. Good for hipster tools to talk about, bad for people who listen to music they like. ^ you described Coheed perfectly there.
theacademy 04.26.11	coheed is basically a rush ripoff, defined. they're like the least hipster band ever.
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	needs more 70's hard rock
KILL 04.26.11	rush without the perfect musicianship
BigHans 04.26.11	fuck Coheed
BigHans 04.26.11	And dude, have you ever SEEN Maiden fans? Ugly motherfuckers. Most unhipster dudes EVER
theacademy 04.26.11	no, coheed's musicianship is pretty fucking tits. they're basically a hollywood remake. clean, modernized, awesome... but people will always prefer the original.
theacademy 04.26.11	i live in manhattan the maiden fans like to longboard in flip flops
KILL 04.26.11	dude compared to geddy alex and the mother fuckin professor they kinda suck m/
BigHans 04.26.11	except for Rush rules hard and is like the 8th greatest band ever and Coheed fucking sucks cock
theacademy 04.26.11	coheed is cute as buttons.
theacademy 04.26.11	u like maiden more than megadeth? wtf i didn't even think people like that were allowed to be born
BigHans 04.26.11	Maiden and Megadeth are about even. Maiden with a slight edge was they only have one shitty album, while Megadeth has a couple. Metallica > all of course
ConsiderPhlebas 04.26.11	Maiden > Megadeth > Coheed > Rush > Priest
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	Metallica > all of course No way man. moneytallica has got 3 pefect albums while maiden has 4 or 5
KILL 04.26.11	wait dude my last words is on peace sells m/
BigHans 04.26.11	Maiden is has been more consistent than Metallica no doubt Metallica is just my favorite band and stuff and their first 5 albums are all 5/5.
theacademy 04.26.11	uh yeah
BigHans 04.26.11	wait dude my last words is on peace sells m/ ^ I fucked up, meant for that to be In My Darkest Hour but too late to change it now. My Last Words rules anyway
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	and their first 5 albums are all 5/5. i would agree with you 3 years ago...
theacademy 04.26.11	cool list but wheres GM/BF
theacademy 04.26.11	maiden is more consistent that's because it's not hard to put out a consistently shit discography
BigHans 04.26.11	The only shitty Maiden album is No Prayer For The Dying. I don't count the albums with Blaize, they never happened.
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	will this list surpass 233 comments?? most likely... This must your best list hans
theacademy 04.26.11	yeah those are pretty bad. pretty much those + the albums with dickinson are the only ones where they totally missed the boat
BigHans 04.26.11	its one of them for sure. I have alot of lists like this though.
JamieTwort 04.26.11	IRON FUCKING MAIDEN
BigHans 04.26.11	UP THE IRONS
Jethro42 04.26.11	list bites
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	i'm waiting for the 10th metallica album. It will be released in 2012 or 13. If its bad though alcohilica should retire.
BigHans 04.26.11	I thought they should retire but then Death Magnetic came out and ruled so now ive changed my mind. They should just disown St Anger and ReLoad and everything would be perfect
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	They also need to remaster their first 4 albums...
BigHans 04.26.11	I think they have been remastered
KILL 04.26.11	theres nothing wrong with the first 3 albums only justice needs remastering
rockandmetaljunkie 04.26.11	lol my english voc needs a good revision...
BigHans 04.26.11	The CD I have for Justice has a better bass sound than the original cassette I had back in 91. I am not 100% positive but I think it has been remastered. There was literally no bass on that tape.
theacademy 04.26.11	reload is better than load because it has an unforgiven
theacademy 04.26.11	metallica ranked 1. kill em all 2. mission impossible 2 soundtrack 3. albums featuring an "unforgiven," minus all the other songs that are not an "unforgiven" 4. all the rest of their bullshit
BigHans 04.26.11	You just like Kill Em All the best cause Dave wrote part of it. Too bad The Four Horseman >>>> Mechanix
theacademy 04.26.11	dave wrote 1 song
BigHans 04.26.11	Dave claims that Hammett ripped off every lead on that album from him, so thats what I was going on
theacademy 04.26.11	eh 3 songs
BigHans 04.26.11	Kill Em All is their 5th best album but still a 5
BigHans 04.26.11	Im not a big Lamb of God fan but that song rules hard
flalafell 04.26.11	lol tool and deftones
Spec 04.26.11	A Textbook Tragedy- Start The Reactor Listen to it for the jazz solo. Incredible.
CrackeTheSkull 04.28.11	Needs a few more Opeth songs like Advent, Demon of the Fall, Blackwater Park and Deliverance. Good list though overall.
KILL 04.28.11	needs more DEATH
TheArchetype 05.02.11	Am I the only one who thinks Sugar by SOAD sucks i would have added Got the Time- Anthrax Archetype- Fear Factory Living After Midnight- Judas Preist New Song- Nuclear Assault Dead Skin Mask- Slayer and
Eulogize 05.11.11	Hey, Pantera, System of a Down, Killswitch Engage and Lamb of God are good.
federicolaurenti 07.14.11	1) Rock out(Motorhead)? 2) Dreamer(Ozzy Osbourne)? 3) Welcome to the jungle(Gun n' roses)?
Parallels 07.14.11	cool list hans. awesome stuff
federicolaurenti 07.15.11	Life won't wait???
federicolaurenti 07.31.11	Ozzy Osbourne with life won't wait.
KILL 07.31.11	lol
HaydenDyson 07.31.11	lol this is old. I like metalcore
Arked 07.31.11	I'm so surprised to see Fixation on the darkness here... So I'am not the only one who think this song is great.
BigHans 12.07.11	best list ever
TheNotrap 12.07.11	I have some better ;-) But Indeed rule hard m///
TheNotrap 12.07.11	5/5 list dude.
BigHans 12.07.11	m/
KjSwantko 12.07.11	Yea gud list. Forgot about A Tout le Monde....I always did like the french.
Dylanjrvs 10.10.12	pretty good list... The only bad choice is Master of Puppets at number 1... seriously it's the most overrated song by Metallica right after Enter Sandman
Counterfeit 10.10.12	RIP
Uranium 10.10.12	metallica was only good when mustaine was in the band
Counterfeit 10.10.12	years later and people still wanna say faggy things like that on a hans list i mean come on
Uranium 10.10.12	ya but it's true so it's ok
Counterfeit 10.10.12	dunno man seems wildy inaccurate
Uranium 10.10.12	Ya people like to argue about this shit and I don't really care to be honest. I appreciate the riffs.
Counterfeit 10.10.12	and they had plenty more m/ and riffs after mustaine left
Uranium 10.10.12	maybe oldschool metallica but the black album might as well be a three chord variation
Counterfeit 10.10.12	who mentioned the black album did i mention the black album i dont think i did
Uranium 10.10.12	ya but i did
Uranium 10.10.12	lol black album
