The heaviest band/album you've ever heard

[Shamateur]

List yours here.

As for me I experienced this feeling of something mega brrrrutal sounding in my ears three times in my life:

when I first time listened to HYPOCRISY "The Final Chapter"

when I finally got into what fuckin' awesome music CRYPTOPSY make

when I first time listened to ABORTED "Goremageddon"

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Man, really tough question, but for me it would probably be Cryptopsy. They have a certain agression & rawness that makes them a band that's hard to forget about.

It used to probably be Cannibal Corpse & Deicide for me when I was a kid, but they don't compare to Cryptopsy. Nile also have some pretty Brutal sections, but as a whole they're not always Brutal like Cryptopsy.

 

[Vilden]

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
Thee Plague of Gentlemen - Primula Pestis

Both bands are alot heavier live though.

 

[Rumpole]

I would agree with Electric Wizard, though I find Come My Fanatics to be their heaviest album. My vote would go to The Rack by Asphyx, especially the title track. The IVth Crusade by Bolt Thrower is also extremely heavy.

 

[Life Sucks]

Black Sabbath



































































































j/k

 

[Life Sucks]

But really, I think that Wormed - Planisphaerium and Defeated Sanity - Psalms of The Moribund rank among the heaviest.

 

[Zephyrus]

Wormed - Planisphaerium

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

I thought about Wormed, but their heaviest didn't make that big of an impact on me because it wasn't something totally different & new to me when I heard it, which was pretty recently. I even reviewed the album at another board.

 

[Silent_Scream]

Wormed - Planisphaerium

agreed

 

[NinjaGeek]

Electric Wizard

Haven't heard anything come close to them outside of the stoner genre.

 

[mutantllama]

Black Sabbath

In the early 70s/late 60s that would be true.

 

[sceloporus]

Either Devourment or Wormed.

 

[NinjaGeek]

I don't get why people say bands like Wormed, I mean they're brutal and kickass, and their vocals are certainly very deep. But to me Bloodbath has the heaviest guitars I've heard in a death metal band.

 

[General Zaroff]

One of the heaviest songs:

Cannibal Corpse-Death Walking Terror

Wormed and Devourment are also incredibly heavy.

 

[Belligerent]

Nightmares Made Flesh ftw.

That's a joke, right? I mean, you know that Bloodbath is paying homage to a bunch of bands from the late 80's/early 90's that were heavier than them, right?

Heaviest? Man, that's hard...

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone is up there... Reverend Bizarre - Harbinger of Metal... Gorguts - Obscura... Immolation - Close to a World Below... Molested - Blod Draum...Disembowelment - Everything, Skepticism, Winter, etc...

Seriously though, while XTREEM Doom and people who ejaculate to Andy Sneap production jobs will disagree, Hellhammer is the fucking heaviest band ever.

EDIT: Haha, I keep coming back! I forgot:
Incantation - Onward to Golgotha

EDIT 2: And Pestilence - Mallevs Maleficarvm

EDIT 3: and Morbid Angel - Formulas Fatal to the Flesh

 

[Manic Ferocity]

"Heavy" is ambiguous...but I'll go with Black Sabbath.

 

[chuj666]

Winter - Into the Darkness

 

[Life Sucks]

In the early 70s/late 60s that would be true.

Of course. But sure as FUCK not these days.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Wormed, yeah...
