My top 10 favorite metal bands

In no particular order –

Dream Theater
Pantera
ARK (not the emo rock band, a now disbanded norwigean prog metal super group)
Pain of Salvation

Does Dream Theater count as metal? Or are we just listing bands we like now?

Also, Enya rocks.

DT counts, they’re prog-metal…though a lot of their albums they kind-of drifted away from metal and more towards Rush-esque prog-rock. Damn good band either way.

No mention of Ulver? only their first 3 albums are metal but they are still awesome.

Oh, I forgot. Stam1na.

And DT is metal. Or used to be. After everything that came after Train of Thought I’m not so sure anymore.

Man I totally forgot some other favorites of mine:

STYX:
YouTube - Styx - Renegade

HEART:
YouTube - Heart - Crazy On You (Live on TV - 1976)

I’m sorry, I just found this today and I have to share it with you. Make sure you’re thoroughly liquored up and you’ll find it hilarious as opposed to painful:

YouTube - Pat Boone - Crazy Train

I won’t post the DIO cover…no…that’s just not right.
