songs that send a shiver down your spine

[sevag00]

My Dying Bride - A Kiss to Remember

 

[ThisIsACoolName]

Reverend Bizarre- Doomsower, as well as The Festival.

 

[The_Quadfather]

Electric Wizard - Return Trip

 

[Einherjar86]

Turisas - Five Hundred And One & A Portage to the Unknown
Avantasia - The Scarecrow

I'm not a fan of the new Avantasia, but definite win on both Turisas songs. Varangian Way; the whole friggin' album gives me chills.

Moonsorrow has a lot of songs that make shivers go down my spine. But especially Jäästä syntynyt / Varjojen virta, Pimeä and Haaska.

Fuckin' A. Jumalten Kaupunki for me. Kivenkantaja is a brilliant album.

 

[Zephyrus]

Electric Wizard - Return Trip

You mean the song after it - "Wizard in Black".

Actually, I really mean "buy some fucking Electric Wizard because their shit is unbelievable and will no doubt send a shiver down your spine"

[Valdincan]

My Dying Bride - A Cruel Taste of Winter

 

[Belligerent]

definite win on both Turisas songs. Varangian Way; the whole friggin' album gives me chills.

[S<issors]

Opeth - For Absent Friends

Morbid Angel - Desolate Ways (!!!!)

Two of the few insturmental tracks on metal albums that I didn't feel were just kinda thrown in. Both very cool songs, with very cool names.

Another one I forgot to mention would be "The Abyss" by Sepultura, which has great classical guitar playing.

 

[Tatsumaru]

Hell yes, Im-Ho-Tep is awesome, along with Wolf and Dracilia.

Both of the new Pyramaze samples are amazing.

I feel Im-Ho-Tep is so damn underrated... it might just be my favorite trick from the Horror Show. The last ''THIS PAIN WON'T END'' is epic as hell. But I hate choosing favorite tracks haha.



Also, I feel guilty for not mentioning Turisas haha. CON-STAN-TI-NOPOLIIIIS!

 

[angelic-rage]

what is im-ho-tep?

 

[DaGhost_FromDaEast]

it's mostly non metal songs that send shivers down my spines but since this is a metal forum I'll go with...

Novembre - Winter 1941
Satyricon - Forhekset
Agalloch - In the Shadow of our Pale Companion
Paysage D'hiver - Gefrorener Atem
Negura Bunget - Hora Soarelui
Negura Bunget - Cel Din Urma Vis
Negura Bunget - Conoas Terea Tacuta
Negura Bunget - Tesarul De Lumini
Metal Church - (My Favorite) Nightmare
Metal Church - Battalious
Kalmah - Anything off of The Black Waltz sends me shivers
Helloween - I'm Alive
Horde - Drink From the Chalice of Blood
Horde - Invert the Inverted Cross
Dodheimsgard - Sonar Bliss
Agalloch - The Melancholy Spirit

That's all I can come up with right now.

 

[viewerfromnihil]

nevermore's the heart collector gets me everytime. same with zyklons transendal war-battle between gods

 

[Einherjar86]

The new Sabaton record: The Art of War

So many great songs, but some of the best and most haunting are:
40 To 1
Cliffs of Gallipoli
Ghost Division
The Price of a Mile

Fucking epic and bombastic songs. Almost the entire album is up on the myspace, it's friggin sweet.
