I have seen discussions on this but never a poll so here we go...

My pick is Blackwaterpark, because bar that bit a quarter of the way through where it goes mellow for a bit, it is constantly getting heavier with one amazing riff after another. It also builds to an amazing climax, not to mention it is played in drop D thus giving it a slightly heavier sound anyway.....
 
Too bad that you have forgotten the two heaviest songs the band has made; In Mist She Was Standing and Advent.

Out of those, the heaviest is Blackwater Park

"Blackwater Park" is my first choice.
"Ghost Of Perdition" is my second.
ROFL @ GoP... seriously, what are you on?

Also, ROFL @ not including Wreath in there.

I voted for Wreath (other).
 
Well I was bound to not be able to include them all, I put all the ones up there that fit the majority of peoples defination of "heaviness". As for not including songs off Orchid & morningrise, Im pretty sure that most people will agree that these songs generally are not consistantly heavy songs especially when compared to the likes of demon of the fall etc
 
yeah seriously, the list should be a little different. wreath or bleak probably belong to the list more than weakness.. and why are there no songs pre-MAYH? in the midst she was standing, twilight is my robe, forest of october or advent should probably be on the list as well. i am sure some people would like to vote for them.

come on now, clean your ears out how can you possibly argue that Ghost of perdition is heavier than Demon of the dall or deliverance?
Yay! Someone else with sense!
 
i wonder if anyone else will vote for karma other than me. that song is heavy in my book.

All of Mikael's screams 3/4's way through IMSWS kinda make that a heavy song for me too.

But Karma is definetly their heaviest, followed closely by DOTF. MAYH is their heaviest album easy.
