Can anyone name their favorite song?

[Gory Elephant]

Can anyone else narrow down the list and actually name their favorite metal song of all time? For me, it is a clear cut decision:

"Satanic Blood" by VON. Probably the simplest ( I count a total of three chords), most evil, brutally effective song ever. If you like your music simple, repetitive and uncluttered, this song packs a serious wallop. In my opinion, devastatingly heavy.

Close seconds would include:

"Demoniac" BLASPHEMY
"Into the Void" BLACK SABBATH
"Equimanthorn" BATHORY

 

[Astral Poetry]

I honestly can't choose. It's very very hard to pick just one, as my favorites (or most listened to) rely on what I feel like at the moment.

 

[Hammer of Might]

Hhhmmm...VERY difficult.

Some would be Hallowed be thy Name, Powerslave, The Rime of the Amcient Mariner...notice a pattern?

 

[Oceanic Motion]

Off the top of my head, Meshuggah - Future Breed Machine. Left me speechless when I first heard it.

 

[speed]

The End by the Doors, Angel of Death by Slayer.

 

[Henrik Main]

When it comes to metal:

Probably Emperor's "Towards The Pantheon" or Borknagar's "Oceans Rise".

 

[Gory Elephant]

When it comes to metal:

Probably Emperor's "Towards The Pantheon" or Borknagar's "Oceans Rise".

Which Emperor CD is that song off?

 

[Erik]

That would be from "In the Nightside Eclipse"...

My favourite is Burzum's "Det Som En Gang Var."

 

[J.]

Arcane Sun's "We Stood With Time" or Neurosis' "Through Silver in Blood"

 

[Haiwei]

Dream Theater - Metropolis Part 1

Not too easy decision to make.. Any song from Images and Words -album stood a chance here.

 

[Diluvial_bloodshed]

It's a close call for me, but I'd put Tears of a Dying Angel by Rhapsody on top.

If that song ceased to exist:

Elvenking - Banquet of Bards

If that song ceased to exist:

Carpathian Full Moon - Luna Garden

 

[Profanity]

Black Sabbath - Snowblind

 

[Dev]

In The Woods... - 299 796 km/s
Septic Flesh - Rain
Emperor - The Acclamation Of Bonds

 

[Slayed Necros]

Darkthrone-En As I Dype Skogen
Deathspell Omega-The Suicide Curse
Dissection-Unhallowed

 

[Starbreaker]

Easy. Iron Maiden's "Phantom of the Opera". Embodies just about every reason I love metal. Great vocals & subject matter, killer time changes, epic delivery, amazing leads and harmonies. That song is flawless.

 

[Flood]

Burzum - Det Som Engang Var or Opeth - Black Rose Immortal

 

[Rottuated]

Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name

 

[Tanith]

Carcass - Heartwork or At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul

 

[Astral Poetry]

Hmmm, upon more throught I would have to say mine is Burzum's "Det Som Engang Var".

 

[no country for old wainds]

I can't pick. Det Som is amazing though, I agree.
