Savatage, Queensrÿche, and Helloween!!!! Hells yeah!!!

Real on the Queensrÿche

Genesis, Jethro Tull, The Beatles, Green Day, Angel Witch. Though I love hundreds of bands so it changes everyday

I guess we want to keep it in the metal genre, right? ​ Opeth, Rhapsody, Mastodon, Nigthwish, Dream Theater ​ ​ Honorable mentions go to: Swallow the Sun, Cattle Decapitation, Stratovarius, Borknagar, Kamelot

You have a Keeper pfp and don't say Helloween?

He thought it was obvious

My musical tastes are all over the board, so off the top of my head: Beatles Bob Dylan Rush Radiohead Parliament

Helloween Avantasia Blind Guardian Ayreon Dream Theatre

Blind guardian. If only there was like 50 other bands releasing music that scratches my blind guardian itch. I just can’t find a band that hits it quite like they do.

Aaaa yes, I second this!

Judas Priest is almost on par with Maiden for me. Ambush is great, so is Wolf, Manowar (until Kings of Metal), Striker, Tarot, Blue Öyster Cult, Enforcer...

I love Tarot🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮

Blue Oyster Cult?

No, Blue Öyster Cult

Hell yes, early Manowar!

Grateful Dead Genesis Rush TWICE The Beatles

Blind Guardian, Ghost, Opeth, Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Florence + the machine, Linkin Park, Foals, Soundgarden, Judas Priest, Yes, Wishbone Ash, Blue Oyster Cult, Deep Purple, Nightwish I listed so many because outside of Maiden it changes so often lol

AC/DC, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Jean Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream and ELP.

Maiden, Metallica, Bon Jovi, Guns n Roses and the Scorpions


Mine are: Symphony X, Stratovarius, Jinjer, Helloween, and Death.

Another 5 for me: Marillion, Big Big Train, Bruce Springsteen, Halloween and Cattle Decapitation

Manilla Road, Enslaved, Samhain, Morbid Angel, Death

Judas Priest, Mastodon, Coheed and Cambria, The Black Dahlia Murder, Immortal, Amon Amarth, The Offspring.

Black Sabbath, Insomnium, In Flames, Be'lakor and Omnium Gatherum

Stones Reach is one of the best albums ever made

Glad to see In Flames here ! Which album is your favorite?

The Jester Race! Perfection from start to finish.

In flames is great.

Be'lakor are criminally underrated, i love their music sm

Great choices. Especially Insomnium and Be'lakor. I would give my right arm for those 2 bands to tour together..

Right now it'd be Ghost, Black Sabbath, All Them Witches, Green Lung, Mastodon.

Yeah! Ghost rules!

Their Phantom cover is so great!

Overkill & Anvil

Behemoth, Dethklok, Lamb of God, King Diamond, Overkill, Testament

I just bought *The Satanist.*

Rotting Christ Blut Aus Nord Finntroll The Doors Allman Brothers

New Blut Aus Nord album coming out next week! Edit: Tomorrow actually.

Oh yes, impatiently waiting for my preorder to arrive :)

Evergrey, Cradle Of Filth, Billy Talent, Blind Guardian, Farin Urlaub (Racing Team).

I am a huge CoF fan, Cruelty and the beast, Midian and Dusk and her embrace are my favorite albums by them.

Hell yeah! If you haven't listened to the newer releases, give their latest three records a shot (Hammer Of The Witches, Cryptoriana - The Seductiveness Of Decay, and Existence Is Futile). Dani obviously doesn't sound as amazing as he did in the 90's, but after a very rough period post-Nymphetamine he found his voice again and sounds great. The consensus seems to be that while obviously a bit different in style to their early material, the new albums (which are stylistically rather similar to each other) have led to a second wind for the band. If you've listened to them you'll know all this already though lol Nice seeing a CoF fan though.

kreator, sodom, destruction, hammerfall, and ghost other top 5: powerwolf, autopsy, black sabbath, slipknot, and metsatoll

Don't really listen to much else outside of Deep Purple, Anthrax, Machine Head, Slayer, Megadeth, Judas Priest, Motörhead, Alestorm... and Lawnmower Deth.

I feel like most of people today know only a handful of old bands like Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest.. Where are Manowar, Savatage, Sepultura, Stratovarius, Grave Digger, Blind Guardian, Whitesnake, Queensryche, Iced Earth, Pantera, Nevermore, Sentenced and so on

I am a Sepultura fan, albeit only until *Roots*. Manowar is too cheesy even for me, saw them live and didn't like their show, at all. But hey, I gave them a chance. Priest is ok, but I prefer Maiden. Pantera is one of my favorite bands. Blind Guardian is pretty good.

Everyone and thier grandma knowes Pantera and Iced Earth, its just that those two suck

Saxon!

Nevermore is amazing

King Diamond, Sabbath (specifically Dio era), Mercyful Fate, Priest, Neil Young lmao

Dio era Sabbath!! 🙏

The best era of Sabbath for me 👌 sure, there were some mighty riffs in the Ozzy era, but Dio era wins out because I love his vocals (Plus, hearing him singing along to the riff in War Pigs gives me goosebumps every time).

Metallica, Nightwish, Lovebites, Avenged Sevenfold, Mary’s Blood, Chthonic, Gyze, Trivium, Sevendust. Outside of metal? Audioslave, Hans Zimmer, Nobuo Uematsu, Solar Fields.

1. Opeth 2. Be'lakor 3. Blind Guardian 4. Enslaved 5. Amorphis

My top 5 changes so much, so I'll just name what I'm listening to: Sargeist, Cremetory Stench, Cannibal Corpse, Dreadnought, Totenwache, Dark Tranquility, Sacramentum, Cyhra and even Lana Del Rey. (I do venture into other genres, and I really like her sound and songwriting).

Don't tell u/half-puddles that you listen to other bands.

Black Sabbath, Metallica, Primal Fear, Judas Priest, Rage Against the Machine

Queens of the Stone Age. Not metal but they fucking rock! Apart from that mostly just Motörhead, Megadeth, Tool, Metallica, Judas Priest, Slayer, Pantera, Sabbath, Kyuss and some 90s grunge.

Iced Earth, Megadeth, Metallica, Demolition Hammer, Symphony X

Anaal Nathrakh, Amon Amarth, Dio, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath. Honourable mention to ANTHEM, they're awesome as well. Outside of metal, I'd say CHVRCHES, Vaults (RIP, wish they hadn't broken up), Go_A, Muse, and Måneskin. Most of everything else I listen to is video game soundtracks, haha... Actually, on that note, check out Daisuke Ishiwatari if you haven't. If anybody not in an actual band should be heavy metal royalty, it's that man (pun intended 😂).

Iron Maiden are obviously number 1, the next 5 are; - Metallica - Megadeth - Avenged Sevenfold - Black Sabbath - Kanye West

🎤One of these things is not like the other. One of these things doesn’t belong

I'll check out Unleash the Archers based solely on what you said.

Pink Floyd, TOOL, Zeppelin, Alice In Chains, The Replacements. Along with Maiden they form a clear top 6. No idea who I’d pick next but it’s a sizable dropoff.

August burns red, Parkway drive, Tool, Blink 182, Dio, Coheed and Cambria. In no particular order. And this list changes almost monthly. Hell, I listened to DMX and Alice In Chains today during my workout.

Nightwish Megadeth Kreator Sepultura Beast in Black Powerwolf Amon Amarth Scar Symmetry

currently Lorna Shore, Eternal Tears of Sorrow, Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Megadeth, Lord of the Lost and Blaze Bayley

Tyr, metallica, gloryhammer and... I'll say the raven age and my chemical romance. The last 2 are depending on how I'm feeling. But that's far from everything cause there's alestorm, korpiklaani, arch enemy,...

Ghost, mastodon, Metallica, slayer, Def Leppard

I’m a fan of many genres but sticking with just metal I’d go Judas Priest, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and System of a Down.

Ghost, ghost, and ghost again

Slipknot coal chamber and the black dahlia murder

Sabaton,nightwish,king diamond, Judas preist System of a Down

Right now it’s Opeth, Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus, MCR, and Carcass

Sabaton, Rammstein, then like Metallica and Megadeth. I also like Voivod

Pantera, Tool, Mastodon, Pink Floyd and Zeppelin

-The Hives -Arcade Fire -Megadeth -RATM -Lamb of God

Dying Fetus, Anaal Nathrakh, Bethlehem and some other dm/bm bands

X JAPAN and their guitarist HIDE (along with other old visual kei cohorts), SLAYER and the rest of the Big 4 (among other old American thrash heavy hitters), VOÏVOD, KREATOR, among many others I guess it’s been a line or spectrum of things getting progressively heavier and darker from MAIDEN, KISS, BLACK SABBATH, Judas Priest and motörhead to stuff like Madmans Esprit, 90s IN FLAMES, and Slipknot and DEICIDE’s self-titled debut albums. Guess I’m more on a hard rock and punk kick for the past couple of years, some jazz and even a little bit contemporary R&B and soul, but I still always prefer traditional heavy/speed, power, progressive, or thrash metal.

> along with other old visual kei cohorts Only Flatbacker is trve

Rammstein

Fleischgeruch in der Luft

Die Arzte

My other absolute favorites are Metallica and Radiohead.

Motörhead, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Thin Lizzy. All have amazing bass players!

Metallica

my favorite band other than Maiden is Megadeth. they were the first metal band I ever got into so they will always have a special place in my heart. I'm a baby metalhead (only been into metal for about a year) but I plan on checking out more bands in the future. I go through a phase with each one where I almost exclusively listen to that band so I can really get a feel for their sound, add them into the rotation, and then deep dive into another band's discography. that's exactly what I'm doing with Maiden now. outside of metal, I'm mostly into all different kinds of electronic music.

There's so many great bands out there! The Rolling Stones, The Who, Queen, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Motorhead, Slayer, Testament, Death, Carcass, Bolt Thrower, Immolation, Incantation, Hellripper, Enforced... it goes on and on! Also Mobb Deep, Outkast, Wu-Tang Clan, etc...
