What are the top ten heavy metal bands?
All of these bands are great but there are metal bands that have been formed in the last 15 years also! My list is more of the extreme virtuosic metal bands plus a few older ones.
1. Cannibal Corpse
Originators of their style, decades of longevity and many imitators
2. Pig Destroyer
Very heavy extreme metal. Scott Hull is the guitarist for this band and a half dozen others plus is a database administrator for a day job!
3. Infant Annihilator
Extremely fast drummer Aaron Kitcher!
4. Meshuggah
Heavy band with innovative Rhythm concept. I have tickets to see them in a few weeks!
5. Rings of Saturn
Accused of faking their speed they have released a number of play through videos.
6. Black Sabbath
The original. Brutally heavy even as 70 year olds!
7. Animals As Leaders
High level of musicianship. Saw them live.
8. Intervals
Melodic instrumentals. Have seen them twice: great drummer.
9. Necrophagist
10. Revocation
11. Polyphia
Not really metal but great musicians
12. Dethklok
A band for a cartoon: Metalocolypse! The brainchild of Brendon Small. Great music and a lot of fun
