The greatest Metal song of all time?

[BWRhasnoAC]

I submit for your consideration Opeth's 'Ghost of Perdition.' All marvel before it's majesty. Come at me bro.



PS
If the screaming hurts your little girl ears @TXCyclones it's mostly singing after the first couple minutes.

I mean, I like rock and prefer rock but you being serious with "greatest rock song of all time"??

Boring vocals, at least nothing unique or catchy with singers voice. Nothing outstanding about the instrumental track either.

It's not horrible but since you presented for our consideration....

I said metal song. Rock isn't metal, even though metal is a form of rock. If you have better, present it. It's all in good fun. Ffs I thought metal heads had thicker skin...

And if you think that the instrumentals in that song are ok, then I really want to hear what you think is great.

Also, Opeth is considered one of the greatest prog bands ever. Right there with Rush.

Yeah... no.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

Yeah... no.

Then? Present a song. Rush isn't metal.

[TXCyclones]

Then?

Anything Iron Maiden is better, but:



And then:

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

Cemetery Gates? Unforgiven? Raining Blood? War Pigs? I understand Opeth isn't main stream America but that's the point, expand horizons.

Define "metal" if you will, before I post something too old.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

I love Metallica, but they're soft compared to today's music.

I shouldn't have to honestly but if you want it to be just rock go ahead.

You're the only one acting thin skinned here. You wanted people's opinion on the song and they're giving it.

You think those over the top vocals from Iron Maiden are better? Yeesh.

I present to you, a true legend:

I asked for theirs. People are all offended I like something that isn't from their catalog. That's the point it's a discussion. You can bag on my song but I can't defend it?

 

[matclone]

Born to be Wild is probably the first song associated with metal but I don't know anything that tops Whole Lotta Love.

 

[Cyclonepride]

This is my favorite. Lyrical masterpiece

You asked for peoples consideration to it being the greatest metal song of all time and told people to come at you? Why would you expect anything different than what you got?

 

[MeowingCows]

Megadeth deserves mention here.

 

[JM4CY]

Don't know if it's #1 but it deserves a mention.
