You missed a lot off that list if you're involving metal and rock.
But I supposed you're never gonna get all of them.
and Don't believe what you hear about Slipknot, there are alot of haters. But the interpretation of their music is down to the listner, not the critic. despite what you hear it's not just noise, it has beat, it has lyrics, it has feeling and emotion.
I urge you to at least check them out.
But from that list, it'd be Metallica, althought every night Metallica do check under their bed for Lemmy (Motorhead)

Good question you got there ^^ .... System Of A Down is a great band

I agree with my general. Also Linkin Park is a great band too.

linkin park numb - only song of theres i know

[Dutchygamer]

I think there are too many bands to mention. I suggest changing the bands to metal types (IE nu metal, black metal, death metal, etc...) if you can change the poll's choices

[Ion Cannon!]

Nah, it could be squeezed down to about 50-75. That would be most of the mainstream ones anyway. You should also be careful what you term as metal. Metal has loads and loads of sub genre's. For example metallica sound nothing like Children of Bodom.

Also "Her ghost in the fog" is great song by COF.I actually dont listen COF but that song kick ass.

whose cof?

[Archon]

COF is Cradle Of Filth.Death metal band.

[smooder]

Smashing Pumpkins and the Chili Peppers get my vote, or atleast the Foo Fighters.

if im going to nitpick, (and i am ) theyre classed as "extreme gothic metal" atm, but were death metal in their very very early demo days

that made me chuckle

[Archon]

COF never sounds gothic to me.

[Pav:3d]

compare a death metal band such as dying fetus to COF and you'll see the difference, theyre incredibly gothic!

Theres many different styles of death metal alone. And once you listen to alot. You can tell the difference. Because alot of death metal bands have been around for a long time sometimes they have a different style every other album as well. Compare IF Clayman to IF Come Clarity, completely different sound.

[Mbob61]

as this is about ROCK/metal surely GnR and led zeppelin have to feature highly
both of these bands wrote some truly amazing songs
true, they aren't metal but they are 2 of the best rock bands you'll ever hear

edit - as i read title wrong when i posted.

neither of these bands are metal rock but for pure rock, they are unbeatable

Who the hell is SOAD? and who hear lisens to DragonForce?

SOAD is a bit of an over-rated band. I personally think a lot of their songs sound very alike.

Dragonforce is pretty good but they have the exact same pattern in almost every one of their songs and it gets old really fast.

It was a very hard choice between Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath but I chose Iron Maiden. I just like more songs by them.

[Archon]

Dragonforce - Throught Fire And Flames

Great song.

[MAELKEMANDEN]

why is SlipKnoT not on here???

wierd...

well, for those that there are to choose from i will take Rammstein, insanely nice band

[General-Maddoc]

hm didn't thought about them so far ...I like a few songs of them but I think they or at least Joey Jordison is overrated ...IMO

[Dauth]

Best Metal band, Metallica, best band? Prolly the Sabbath, tho also have a fondness for Led Zep

Wolfmother, Dream Theater and Porcupine Tree.

However, I do like a bit of Led Zeppelin, King Crimson or Frank Zappa every once in a while.

THE HARDEST METAL KNOWN TO MAN.

What do you mean by "hardest metal?" Do you mean heaviest? If so, then I'd have to disagree completely. I know several bands that are much heavier than Dragonforce.
