      Hard to choose, but I find Old Gold and most of 36 Crazyfists super underrated. Especially the end of the bridge and into the final chorus of Old Gold is one of my fav moments in any metal song.

      The singers got a new band Paradise Slaves.

        Good! That would be really embarrassing if we both quoted Metallica songs in our HS yearbooks. Which we definitely did not.

                Oooh, same. That version of No Leaf Clover is waaaaay up there for me. That and The Memory Remains.

                I'm in the weird position that that album was my introduction to metallica, so any version other than the full symphony sounds weird to me 😅

                Same here. It was not only my introduction to Metallica, it was literally the first album to get me into non-country music (it'd kinda become my identity as a kid) and the first non-country album I HAD TO BUY (and the first CD purchase that worried my parents). I'll never forget waking up to my cousin playing that song and thinking, "WHAT. IS. THAT. AMAZING. SOUND!?"

                    Metal is too hard to define. Some old folks would say poison is metal. Some would say only Megadeath and Pantera are metal. Some say they're pop and not metal at all. It's just not worth arguing in this sector. I grew up in the 90s and enjoy "nü metal" the 80s made shit music as far as I'm concerned and isn't metal at all. Is the music racist? Then its not metal. There's a lot of racism in bands that are considered metal. Then you have the ADHD industrial metal. What is metal and what isn't? Megadeath sucks shit outside of a few songs and are openly embraced by neonazis. It's honestly a very hipster style, with so many being labeled cool or not cool based on the time at any given moment, and whether or not they fit in.

                              Like other people say, "favorite" depends on the context. Here are ones I've had on repeat at one point or another.

                              Contraband - Make Them Suffer

                              Die Alone - A Pale Horse Named Death (this one is for a sad day)

                              In The Name Of God - Rotting Christ

                              Bullet With A Name - Nonpoint

                              WAKE UP - The Browning (whole album is good, intro is a fucking headbanger)

                              Where The Things Have No Color - Destrage

                              The Orphan - Paleface Swiss

                              I saw Shadow of Intent live as an opener for Heaven Shall Burn a couple years ago and they were great.

                                      Atreyu - Bleeding Mascara, just punches you in the face with an awesome intro.

                                        It's hard to pick one, but here are a few of my favorites:

                                        Opeth - the drapery falls

                                        Panopticon - Cedar Skeletons

                                        Cult of Luna - The Fall

                                        Ashenspire - The Law of Asbestos

                                        Fen - Fear

                                          Hmmm...

                                          Enter Sandman, and The Unforgiven (Metallica)

                                          The Phantom of the Opera in Tarja's and Marko's version (Nightwish). Also Storytime in Anette's version.

                                          The Keeper of the Seven Keys, and Eagle Fly Free (Helloween)

                                          Chop Suey (System of a Down)

                                          Dance With the Dragon (Dark Sarah)

                                          Ace of spades (Motörhead)

                                          .... A bunch of stuff from Guns'n'Roses, Black Sabbath, and Poison (maybe my definition of metal is wider than yours...)

                                          Other days I'd have listed something by Evanescence, Edguy, Blind Guardian, Dream Theater, Korpiklaani, Alestorm, Nanowar, Dragonforce, ...

                                          Yeah, I tend to be biased towards power metal, symphonic metal, and various '80s groups that are somewhere on the border between "hard rock" and "metal". I know that's not everyone's cup of tea.
