The Top 20 Metal Bands Of All Time

[fortran97]

#1 should be Metallica or iron maiden or even slayer

[scotianfitter]

WolfgangVonPoserkila, Dude... Just the fact that Running Wild is 2 ahead of Metallica just proves you have no idea what you are talking about... and where is Pantera?? Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Sepultura, and Iron Maiden are kick ass tho. I have to give you that!!

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@scotianfitter Dude, Just the fact you think Pantera should be here shows you don't know what you're talking about.

Have you ever heard of Liege Lord? Crimson Glory? Laaz Rockit?

You haven't have you little mainstream cunt? Fuck off to hot topic you bitch, my grandma knows more about metal than you...

[aMildlyEntertainingP]

LIKE

[aMildlyEntertainingP]

i think maiden and metallica(80's) should have been the other way around, but you had a very well made video of the best metal bands of all time

[Bassfreak97]

I waited all the time for Scorpions :(

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@Bassfreak97 I love old scorps dude but they only had like 2 albums that could be considered metal

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@EIOURUZ lol you're a complete idiot. Your opinion is worthless.

[spillerxxxxx]

[evertonteixeiramenez]

1º Metallica, 2º Iron Maiden, 3º Black Sabbath, 4º Motorhead, 5º Megadeth, 6º Slayer, 7º Judas Priest

[Mercenary1911]

IRON MAIDEN SHOULD BE IN 1°

[METALKILLSemosNpunks]

Amazing list. You got a great taste in metal.

[ajsinghrana]

why METALLICA at 10th it should be no.1

[mrbeerslayer]

wtf megadeath??

[xXMONGUSXx]

Exeelente!! Judas Priest :D!!

[TradingCarz]

[Babyface6200]

Death? RIP Chuck

[Marcusreed1993]

It's a good list, but where's death?

[Babyface6200]

@Marcusreed1993 i know right

[TheRockClassicfan]

i saw venom on the list. im leaving the vid now. each to their own, but i cant stand them

[hylajuggler]

Good list but great metal didn't end in the 80s.

[ladiesman19100]

@hylajuggler great metal has never ended

[LOLWUTCHEESE]

you have a real taste in music instead of the fucking ear rape they call music today

you listen to some real music \m/

[zUlquiorraCifer]

@LOLWUTCHEESE Theres real music nowadays, just turn off your t.v and radio and find bands. Machine Head, In Flames, As I Lay Dying, Trivium, Rise To Remain, Norma Jean, Architects, Miss May I and Parkway Drive.

[BlazeFox02]

Judas Priest are fucking awesome, they deserve the #1 spot !!

[EverxOpeningxFlower]

great list

[weariorlion]

Good that you got judas preist no 1 awesome.

[SotonaTheMetalFreak]

1.-metallica 2.-slayer 3.-megadeth 4.-iron maiden 5.-sepultura 6.-motörhead

7.-black sabbath the other bands are not heavy fucking metal!! but ok, this is your choice.

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@SotonaTheMetalFreak lol you're a fucking idiot and you know jackshit about metal

[SotonaTheMetalFreak]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila well, heavy metal is not my type of metal, except bands i said, but even i know that other bands are not heavy metal..if you think they are, you are an idiot and than i bet justin bieber is for you heavy!

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@SotonaTheMetalFreak Well what are they then you prick? You havent a clue what youre talking about you stupid little shit. Now fuck off and listen to slipknot.

[SotonaTheMetalFreak]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila ohh sorry grand grand grand grand grandfather, it seems that you are born in 1700 before christ, if this is heavy for you, yes, sorry my fault, than it was really heavy because the other bands were just smashing rock on rock..

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@SotonaTheMetalFreak haha I love you revisionists. Going round calling old bands rock simply because they're not as heavy as metallica or death metal.

What was metal in 1980 is metal now. You can't move goalposts and change the definition of metal. You haven't a clue dude. I'll bet you think shit like bullet for my valentine is metal as well. You're through here.

[Mairloes]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila I think he's confused because bands like Motörhead and Iron Maiden etc. call themselves "Rock 'n roll", while they are classified as Heavy Metal. Lemmy keeps calling Motörhead Rock 'n Roll, while Rock 'n Roll as we know it is mostly Elvis, Chuck Berry, Bill Haley, Bo Diddley, Fats Domino etc. It doesn't matter to me though, as long as I think it sounds good. Imo this is a nice video with good bands. Keep up the good work ;)

[OMGbalrog]

Omg! First I was like: i wonder if judas priest is here, then i thought that they are in top becouse cant see them here then came list number, couldnt recognize them and then you revealed the name of number 1! Wow! My top 5 metal bands are nightwish, judas priest , ozzy, motorhead and children of bodom. Not all are -heavy- metal

[BOUNCEFACTOR]

Nice to see a list of metal bands that were actually metal bands(some are on the edge but easily go either way. I am more of a "hard rock" fan but first concert I saw was Maiden and Priest and saw Priest 2 other times though this was well over 20 years ago.

[vanhalen515084]

top 10 metal bands. metal church, king diamond, anthrax, iron maiden, judas priest, slayer, testament, anthrax, megadeth and black sabbath

[ibanezrockerdude]

where the HELL is pantera?

[hashimali72]

1.Lamb Of God (The pioneers Of Groove Metal)

2. Metallica (Basically started the style we today know as thrash metal, repeatedly mentioned as the most famous metal band in the world)

3. Judas Priest (Heavy metal pioneers)

4. Motörhead (One of the best heavy metal bands to roam the earth)

5. Iron Maiden (Another great heavy metal band)

6. Pantera (Without them, heavy metal would have nearly died in the '90s)

7. Venom (Credited by thrash metal bands as a big influence)

8. Megadeth (Another great)

[hironk2]

the year best of metallica is 1987

[MrShowmeyourcunt]

Well clearly everyone is entitled to their own opinion. They're just like assholes, everyone's got one : )

[HardRockMetalFan528]

why didnt you use a picture or song of Sabbath with Ozzy?

[aysd1234]

Im not being ignorant,but NO ONE can dismiss that Maiden is best metal band ever

[HardRockMetalFan528]

@aysd1234 Maiden is a close tie with Judas Priest if you ask me

[supersonicH8]

Decent list, but noticably missing: Anthrax, Testament, Flosam and Jetsam

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@mitty156RS Good call.

[SaschaEchtler1995]

@mitty156RS are you stupid or something? Metallica live on concert are not boring! And the New Albums still Rocks, not the old Thrash Metal but it rocks!

[ladiesman19100]

@SaschaEchtler1995 metallica has gotten alot less heavy than before tho they do play kickass shows theyve kinda lost ther touch on what they right

[ladiesman19100]

@SaschaEchtler1995 write*

[timmy20952]

[rodrigo212336]

[kratosfan64]

@rodrigo212336 Metallica had only 4 good albums so they have obviously more shitty than good stuff.

[rodrigo212336]

ALL METALLICA ALBUMS ARE AWESOME!!!

[kratosfan64]

@rodrigo212336 nope. all albums from black album to now are fucking garbage.

[rodrigo212336]

[bashenbrian]

yea i would have to say Judas Priest was the first real heavy heavy metal band!

[MsBestqueen]

JUDAS PRIEST N1!!!!!!!! <3

[CrimsonBrikx]

Top 4 I think are in the right order, rest of the list I personally would change things around and remove/add some - but everyone will have their own opinion.

Certainly needs more Dio though!

[hashimali72]

1) Slipknot

[idelfini]

Helloween, Manowar, Anthrax??

[steveunlocked]

[iiEv0LuTioNzz]

Black Sabbath isnt the same with out Ozzy and You forgot a band btw Pantera!!!!!!

[Yessirman71]

Awesome list guys!!! If anyone is interested in unreleased music from the 1980's you can type or copy L.A. Ryder "We're the Outcasts" in the search box and hear some original jams from back in the day fresh off of 1/4 inch analog reel!!!! Rock ONNNN

[birrac]

Judas Priest the best of all!!! I like the decision to put manilla road in the list it's a amazing band but.. where is crimson glory, twisted sisters or riot?

Good list, congratulations

[BeerSlayer863]

Slayer before 98? WTF does that mean? God Hates Us All is my fave Slayer album and Playing With Dolls is my new fave Slayer song. All after 98.

[HamadaTenchu]

Very nice, although I would switch places with the 1st and 2nd. Also Death on the list, and Maiden off the list.

[AoLIronmaiden]

Nico's face in the maiden picture is hi-fucking LARIOUS!!!! haha

[djadi1995]

why is a 0 next to 1 for metallica?

[CanadaRULEZ1765]

[wildchild353]

where children of bodom??

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@NervRulz LMAO how many times do you want to apologise for your opinion. Like you're admitting to being a racist rapist or something. Believe it or not you look far less like a fucking idiot by giving your opinion than going "LUL WER U DRUNKZ WEN U MADE DIS". Have more faith in yourself next time : )

[jwan915]

even the song from Motorhead here dosent like your decision like the motorhead song said IRONS FIRST

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@jwan915 haha nice.

[jwan915]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila yea but its kinda true IRONS UP

[jwan915]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila yeah lol

[kman1759]

I enjoyed the order of this video for the most part although I have to say Metallica is better than Megadeth. I like to finally see a list that recognizes Priest for their influence in the genre.

[GUITARPLAYINGFAN]

oh...fucking tops ... wheres MANOWAR ?!!

[TheJonMaster]

that is an accurate list in the top bands that influenced metal the most. im glad Bathory are as high as they are. without that tool metal today would suck.

[metalmeltdown12]

I think you forgot Exodus. Don't worry it's an honest mistake

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@metalmeltdown12 No mistake. They're not quite up to a top 20.

[metalmeltdown12]

@WolfgangVonPoserkila Pretty sure theyre up to a top four

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@metalmeltdown12 Thats your opinion my friend.

[chimera517]

ahhhhhhhh the second last one isn't black sabbath that's another DIO i think there called just pointing it out

[WolfgangVonPoserkila]

@chimera517 erm no.....its Black Sabbath....Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler should give you a clue...

[xKiLLerFeaRx]

the list is quite allright but yea i think pantera deserve to be there too

[Aaron2560694]

Hahaha! I totaly agree with your Video!...I was waiting for Judas Priest in that jumble of Bands!!!..Judas Priest is my favorate Band...Way to go man!

[VengeanceAfter]

Where's Death?

[hnsst]

fucking megadeth \m/

[MrMaxymon]

Where the fuck is PanterA?

[EverxOpeningxFlower]

@MrMaxymon Not in this list.. duh.

[orcdoubleax]

for me the list is missing Lamb of God & Exodus, but it is of course a personal thing.

[swimbr070]

@LucaVercetti Not here--they play

[Z7EXTREMEBABY]

[Z7EXTREMEBABY]

Judas priest and sabbath when ozzy was in ,

[supermetalhead999]

In a METAL TOP, Slayer should definitely be No1. Running Wild higher than a lot of other big bands (Overkill for ex.)? C'moooon ! I can't see Death but Posessed are in. C'mooon !

[ssa12344]

What is the first song before the countdown? The one that says "MEETAAAAL"! :-D

[AGreenShow]

@ssa12344 I wanna know too. The Riff sounds awesome, and I know it, but I just put my finger on it :*(

[TheFernodragon]

I listen to some metal just for the fucking epic shredding :x

lol so funny metallica before 1996...u should change that to 1992 thats more accurate...and for slayer thats a fucking low blow...sure diablos in musica was great but it still had some awesome metal riffs....and all they're albums after that are great.....so u shld take out that 1998 thingy....and kreator should be right behind slayer :)
