The best British band ever ? (metal)

[Astrum]

better than maiden? nah man.

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

King Crimson doesn't count because they are a legend, not a band.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Black Sabbath - without them we wouldn't have anything to listen to.

Ditto. Well said.

 

[Hubster]

Iron Maiden, and STILL THE FUCKING BEST

I'm quite surprised that Maiden are out in front, I used to love them when I was a kid, but their sound and image hasn't stood the test of time at all. And everything they did after Adrian Smith left the band was rubbish.

Black Sabbath on the other hand, invented metal.

Sabbat 2 votes, Motorhead 3 , Skyclad 3... Venom 2

Anathema 5, My Dying Bride 7 WTF

 

[Carcassian]

Everyone here has failed. I don't care if this band isn't considered metal. The best band to have ever come out of that country is King Crimson.

End thread.

But they aren't metal. (RTFQ)

End gob-flapping.

 

[Krilons Resa]

I still prefer Tygers of Pang Tang.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Did you ever check out Terra Firma?

At least someone on this forum knows of Terra Firma.

 

[Susperia]

\m/\m/

I'veonly heard their self titled. Do youhave anything else?

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yep, Harms Way is even better!!

 

[Unfaithfully Metalhead]

Tough choice between Sabbath, Maiden, Priest and Motorhead but in the end i Chose Motorhead because well.... Lemmy is God!! lol ..... 2nd choice would be Sabbath for being the originators and 3rd would be Priest/Maiden probably a tie though I'm more partial to Maiden.. as for Priest's best album IMO it was Screaming for Vengeance... not one flaw on that album...

 

[King Richard]

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

 

[ohiogrinder]

ummm Napalm Death isn't on that list

 

[Hatebreeder]

ummm Napalm Death isn't on that list

Well, there's probably a damn good reason.

 

[Killbot]

ummm Napalm Death isn't on that list

Good point. They're better than bloody Diamond Head.

Beg to differ.

I'm quite surprised that Maiden are out in front, I used to love them when I was a kid, but Bruce Dickinson's voice hasn't stood the test of time at all.

Fixed.
