The Heaviest Fucking Metal Band

[VittraEternity]

if you think like this, then all music discussion is futile as it all based on opinion

Opinion is what makes good discussion but I just don't see the point in trying to name one specific band as the heaviest. Just whenever I see a thread like this I always see a lot of bands mentioned who aren't even that heavy to begin with. Yes, thats my opinion but its like when people say bands like Lamb of God are heavy when clearly, nearly any death metal band is heavier.

this topic is even more worthless though because most people don't even have a vaguely similar conception of what the word heavy means in relation to music, it's all ridiculously arbitrary

Exactly.

I think you're misunderstanding the intent of the original poster - the point of this thread is not come to a consensus about the heaviest band

it is merely to discuss your opinion of who YOU think is the heaviest band (that's how I interpreted it anyways) - it is entirely impossible to EVER come to a consensus about something like this

somebody get me out of here before my cock hardens

GTFO if you don't like this thread (I don't really care for it)

Someone on another message board was once trying to argue with me that Led Zeppelin is heavier than Nile.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Black Fucking Sabbath.

so easy.

The song "Dazed and Confused" is heavier than anything Nile has ever done.

I'm not gonna state my opinion as fact, but I can't fathom how anyone could possibly think anything by Led Zeppelin is heavier than anything Nile has ever done. In my opinion, nothing bluesy can be heavy.

 

[King Richard]

Regardless...Zeppelin pwns the fuck out of Nile.

Hell yes. Nile make me laugh

 

[Life Sucks]

Led Zeppelin sucks.

oh, and by saying that Zeppelin suck, is ridiculously ignorant.

Heaviness is a subjective term. In some ways, I can see Zeppelin being heavier than Nile. Distortion doesn't really make you heavier than a band that uses less.

 

[Zephyrus]

If you amped up some slower Zeppelin songs, I suppose that could match Nile's heaviness.

 

[Matt]

Led Zeppelin sucks.

I guess suddenly you have been appointed grand arbiter of suckiness, huh.

The overt distortion is one reason I don't like Nile as much as I'd like. The melody of the riffs gets lost in the chugging and makes some of the albums a bit repetitive.
