10 favourite all time songs

[stefan86]

yay! another postin'/boredom/namedropping thread. metal or non-metal doesn't matter btw.


something like this for me:

Anathema - Empty
Blackfield - 1.000 People
Katatonia - Chrome
Katatonia - Dispossession
Katatonia - Right Into The Bliss
Katatonia - The Future of Speech
Mourning Beloveth - Narcissistic Funeral
Nevermore - The Learning
Nile - Sacrifice Unto Sebek
Porcupine Tree - Trains

a serious lack of Death Metal here compared to my overall tastes but whatever

 

[Shpongled]

I don't think I could ever do this.

 

[Karmic]

I don't think I could ever do this.

yeah, agreed.

 

[EricT]

I guess mine would be something like that, of course, aside from a few songs, it changes depending on mood. I'm also going to stick to metal to make things easy:

Agalloch - You Were But A Ghost In My Arms
Bathory - Enter The Eternal Fire
Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell
Blind Guardian - Time What Is Time
Blind Guardian - Valhalla
Emperor - Ye Entrancemperium
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness
Nevermore - No More Will
Primordial - The Coffin Ships
Reverend Bizzare - Doom Over The World

 

[Phoenix5]

i'll try this in a few minutes

kthnx

 

[Kiss The Void]

i think this is always really relative to the time you write the list.


it should be more like, what are you favorite songs right now...or something

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

not quite happy doing this. well, after a few minutes of thinking i gave up. named five songs that are definitely in tho ... generally i am more into listening to albums than songs ... that means that there are albums that feel like they have to have a top ten song but i could never choose out of those songs to be particularly awesome

joanna newsom - emily
pink floyd - echoes
opeth - the amen corner
the beatles - a day in the life
alban berg - dem andenken eines engels (not exactly a song but who cares)

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

what the fuck, the boards turned into myspace today?!

 

[EricT]

Your mom turned in to my space... she stayed. We had tea.

 

[Dead Winter]

Coffin Ships ftw

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

*sigh*

Primordial - Coffin Ships
Graveland - Sons of Fire and Steel
Nevermore - Death of Passion
Edge of Sanity - Crimson (its one song!)
Opeth - The Night And The Silent Water
Drudkh - Summoning The Rain
Emperor - Into The Infinity Of Thoughts
Negura Bunget - Cunoaşterea Tăcută
Hate Forest - Track 1 from Battlefields
Bathory - One Rode To Asa Bay

Probably inaccurate, and very much subject to change.

 

[EricT]

Negura Bunget - Cunoaşterea Tăcută

De Piatra's better, if only for that section at 50 seconds with the heavy strums and the odd drums in the backgrounds... god damn does that section get me every time.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

the whole album is fucking brilliant, i just find Cunoaşterea Tăcută (gotta love CTL+V) to be the most atmospheric and emotional piece on there.

When the clean vocals come in at about 2:30. holy shits.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Live its even better, they do this 1 or 2 minute intro that to my knowledge has never been recorded, it just goes right into the song.

 

[Metal head87]

Mercyful Fate- Satan's Fall
King Diamond- Black Horsemen
Green Carnation- LOD, DOD
Helstar- Winds Of War
Alcemist- Tide In, Mind Out
Fates Warning- Fata Morgana
Sacrifice- Truth (After The Rain)
Death- Crystal Mountain
Tomorrow's Eve- The Eve Suite
Melechesh- Triangular Tattvic Fire

 

[Anvil]

Not possible for me. I have one all time favorite album, and then the rest are just mixed up into the top 200.

 

[MegadeV]

Mercyful Fate - Satan's Fall
Nevermore - The Learning
Megadeth - Good Mourning/Black Friday
Mercyful Fate - Desecration of Souls
Megadeth - Looking Down the Cross
Megadeth - Holy Wars
Iron Maiden - Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Sanctuary - Veil of Disguise
Iron Maiden - The Trooper

These are all-time, not just current favorites. If it was a "right-now" list, it would look a lot different.

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

No particular order, but this about covers it.

Kiss - The Oath
Metallica - One
Alice in Chains - Would?
Nevermore - This Sacrament
Faith No More - Epic
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness
Devin Townsend - Deadhead
Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song
Pantera - The Sleep
Kiss - Tears Are Falling

 

[Kvlt Wench]

Yeah this'll probably be very different in a few weeks.

Virgin Steele - Life Among the Ruins
King Diamond - The Family Ghost
Judas Priest - Exciter
Judas Priest - Victim of Changes
Mercyful Fate - Come to the Sabbath
Vio-Lence - Phobophobia
Blind Guardian - Time Stands Still
Megadeth - Tornado of Souls
Bathory - Shores in Flames
Manilla Road - Crystal Logic
