When it comes to heavy metal, we generally get 4 minutes or less of shredding and a cloud of dust with the occasional ear bleeding. With this handful of songs, these bands stretch their chops out a bit. Which of these songs is your favorite?

All great but the Helloween track is probably the most adventurous. Iron Maiden second. War Pigs is great but overplayed. -------------  https://rateyourmusic.com/~siLLy_puPPy |

Iron Maiden's Rime of The Ancient Mariner, back in the days before Bruce Dickinson took to the skies in his Maiden flight as an airline pilot.   |

Although I'm not in my comfort zone here, this is a nice list. Kreator is the only one I don't know. It is between War Pigs and Keeper of the Seven Keys for me, but this Helloween one touches the string of nostalgia a bit stronger, so Helloween it is. ------------- The razamataz is a pain in the bum |

Great poll, OP! These are all really cool choices, but I have to go with the one originally titled "The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere". ------------- (Insert Clever Words Here) I'm actually this guy: https://www.progarchives.com/Collaborators.asp?id=17597" rel="nofollow - Cylli Kat |
