[CRAZY-HORSE]

is this list yours or is it from elsewhere???

AC/DC are often classed as a metal band, so how come they dont appear on the list, not only have they outsold every other metal band in history but they also have the biggest selling metal album of all time in "back in black"

...and KISS, where are KISS?

[Noli Me Tangere]

is this your list?

[SteveO]

Metal Storm's list. Opeth #31....I don't think so. Should be higher ! They're never boring.

i know everyone's entitled to their opinions, but lamb of god at #93? :confused:
the number's are inverted right? should be 39 or something...
props to Dio being #16.

[TraceNspace]

Very odd list. Where did you get it? Or did you make it?

[SteveO]

Trace, it's directly from a list by Metal Storm magazine from a couple of years ago. I've seen it before.

Very odd list. Where did you get it? Or did you make it?

[mtthwibrahim]

clearly I'm seeing things, I just saw Slipknot placed higher than Type O Negative

[SteveO]

that's the reason i hate "best" lists !!!...foolishness...to each his own...i use them as a guide or point of interest and don't put much faith in them !

clearly I'm seeing things, I just saw Slipknot placed higher than Type O Negative

[hatchetman]

Wow, did you come up with this list? AC/DC is one of the best. Not bad though.
