Here are my favorite bands.
Honorable mentions: Death, Testament, Exodus, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Emperor, Ghost, Judas Priest, Meshuggah, Opeth, Ne Obliviscaris, Amon Amarth |
15 | Stam1na
They have no bad songs! Lyrics are genius, riffs are catchy and the they kick ass! |
14 | Dark Tranquillity
They produce both extremely beautiful but badass melodeath at the same time! Fiction is one of my favorite albums! |
13 | Eluveitie
Both melodic death metal and folk metal are close to my heart so when a band mixes them well it makes me very happy. |
12 | Kreator
I'm a huge thrash metal fan and these German pioneers are arguably one of the greatest of all time in that genre. Love both their old brutal sound and their new more melodic touch. |
11 | Ensiferum
Ensiferum is important band to me because they're the first metal band that I ever saw live. That was an awesome first time! |
10 | Turisas
Listened to them a lot back in my early teens. Absolutely badass band! |
9 | Moonsorrow
Every single album is a masterpiece! They have long songs but they sure don't feel long. The atmosphere in their music is outstanding! |
8 | Amorphis
You can always count on these guys. Both early days and modern Joutsen-era are awesome! |
7 | Epica
Epica is one of those bands that have no bad record or bad song whatsoever. Seen them live twice and they're incredible! |
6 | Insomnium
Possibly the most beautiful metal band in the world! |
5 | Wintersun
Jari is a genius! |
4 | Megadeth
Mustaine is simply a riff-god. Rust in Peace is one the greatest albums of all time but it definitely isn't the only great record of theirs. |
3 | Iron Maiden
Needs no introduction. Who wouldn't love Maiden? |
2 | Metallica
May not be the greatest thrash band but they're very important to me. The first four albums are obviously masterpieces but Load is one of the most underrated albums of all time. |
1 | Nightwish
Have been closest to my heart for years now. It would be a crime to give the crown to someone other. |
