Katatonia - Idle Blood
Shade Empire - Serpent-Angel
Dan Swanö - Uncreation
Mayhem - Pagan Fears
Disarmonia Mundi - Oceangrave
Bonded By Blood - Necropsy
Emperor - Cosmic Keys to My Creations & Times

[byrne]

Ah, why not;

1. Slayer - Black Magic
2. Onslaught - In Search of Sanity
3. Arghoslent - Heirs to Perdition
4. Black Sabbath - Into the Void
5. At the Gates - Windows
6. The Chasm - Brand the Mournful Liberation
7. Mayhem - Freezing Moon
8. Grotesque - Blood Runs from the Altar
9. Destroyer 666 - Genesis to Genocide
10. Judas Priest - Better by You, Better than Me

After doing that, I feel like I'm doing too many bands injustice. If I thought about it tomorrow, I'd have a different list. But whatever.

mine would still be pretty close to that. arghoslent is probably the only one i listen to significantly less often. id probably swap that with something by god macabre.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Adramelch - Zephirus
Anacrusis - Stop Me
Arcturus - For to End Yet Again
Aspid - Give Me (Play for a Ballet)
Candlemass - Black Stone Wielder
Coroner - Son of Lilith
Dream Theater - Take the Time
Metallica - Orion
Queensryche - Promised Land
Watchtower - Asylum

Or something roughly like that. Excluding Atheist, Destruction, and Exodus was painful, but it's a difference between 3-4 minutes of orgasm against 6-8.

 

[hemicharger69]

black sab - sabbra cadabra
black sab - supernaut
saxon - street fighting gang
judas priest - victim of changes
iron maiden - number of the beast
anvil - jackhammer
tallica - seek and destroy
raven - don't need your money
diamond head - lightning to the nations
testament - FEAR

i could easily take ten songs from each band.

 

[Lateralus14]

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Candlemass - Solitude
Carcass - Reek of Putrefaction
Dead Congregation - Martyrdoom
Deathspell Omega - Chaining the Katechon
Deathspell Omega - Drink The Devil's Blood
Esoteric - Circle
Katatonia - Gateways of Bereavement
Mournful Congregation - Fading Light of a Dying Sun
Slayer - Reign in Blood

Damn 2008 was good.
