Revolver Magazine: 50 Heaviest Bands

[MajestikMøøse]

I think you and neal must be looking at completely different lists.

 

[El Stormo]

choke on a fucking waffle, seriously.

Sure thing. Since you obviously like going to the mall, pick one up for me, will ya?

 

[neal]

actually Neal,you totally missed the point.check out the title of the list:50 HEAVIEST bands.sorry for you but Deftones might be "crazy" live but for sure they ain't heavy.now don't tell me The White Stripes is a heavier band than Iron Maiden.I'll repeat myself:this list is american bullshit.actually this is one of americans biggest problem,everything is related with a toplist.if something is not related with a toplist it isn't part of reality.

white stripes? what the fuck are you talking about? i like maiden, but barely distorted harmonized leads over some bass tripplets isnt heavy in the least when compared to something like melvins or electric wizard...wtf do you think 'heavy' means? its not "50 mostest fast and technical metal bands" it doesnt even say "50 heaviest metal bands". its just the 50 Heaviest bands. sorry they didnt include all of your favorite 80s mullet warriors.


(also, i wasnt defending the Deftones inclusion on the list, only comenting that i felt they are a great live band after someone else had said they sucked. and another thing, i dont like top 50 lists either. they try to be too all-inlusive and usually end up pretty absurd)

actually let's ask 10 rock listeners what heavy means to them.last time I checked mainstream magazine list were made for masses not for pros.by the way that list is full of 80's mullet warriors,that's another confusing thing.

edit:and by the way,in what you belive heavy means,Testament and Megadeth are heavier than 95% of the list.

well revolver is aimed more at the hard/metal crowd, this isnt fuckin spin or something....

by the way that list is full of 80's mullet warriors,that's another confusing thing.

so anthrax and metallica = full on a list of 50?

edit:and by the way,in what you belive heavy means,Testament and Megadeth are heavier than 95% of the list.

how the fuck do you figure that? have you even heard electric wizard or eyehategod or melvins or godflesh or neurosis or high on fire or or or etc? if you think by my logic megadeth is heavier than ANY of those bands above, NOT TO MENTION 95% of the list as you so boldly claim, than you have not understood anything ive said (typed), and certainly have no fucking clue what i think it means to be 'heavy'

 

[Captain Beard]

Silly noobs.

 

[Flesh Is The Fault]

Black Sabbath are heavy as shit, in a different way than bands like Hypocrisy and SYL though, but the opening riff to the song 'Black Sabbath' is what heavy truly is, has nothing to do with speed or volume really.

 

[El Stormo]

Marilyn Manson's white androgenous suit with the boobs is less gay than drawing pictures of elves and faries.

That post, by the way, is gayer than Milli blowing Vanilli.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

has nothing to do with speed or volume really.

YES!!!

 

[Metal head87]

Celtic Frost is every bit as heavy, if not heavier than all the bands before them.

They were amazing last night by the way!

Neal,I heaven't heard the Electric Pelvis,that's why I put 95%,though I heard Eyehategod,Neurosis,etc,and they totally suck ass.anyway,since Metallica or Anthrax are in the list and they are 80's bands,I thought Testament wich is heavier than both combined should be on the list too.I don't know why I am wasting my time here with you anyway,have a good day.

 

[Chromatose]

so how does ass sucking factor into heaviness?

 

[blind_cynic]

you got me Einstein.it's a matter of taste in this case.

 

[Cephalopod]

you got me Einstein.it's a matter of taste in this case.

Ass taste? :zombie:

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

mmmm ass taste

 

[neal]

you got me Einstein.it's a matter of taste in this case.

no, its a matter of heaviness. check the title of the list again.

 

[Chromatose]

I'm somewhat surprised White Zombie didn't make the list. Astro Creep 2000 is righteously heavy

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

Black Sabbath is a really good band.
