The fact that the 1st position is Metallica (who is really Thrash Metal) and the 2nd is 'Other' shows something's wrong with this poll

Metallica. Thank god they are in the lead. TAKE SYSTEM OF A DOWN OFF THE LIST! THEY ARE NU_METAL!
Metallica, A damn lot of crap but a handful of songs that just couldn't have been done better.
Black Sabbath was heavy when they started playing, they're like backstreet boys compared to REAL heavy bands nowadays.
Quite the same with AC/DC. More like hard rock.
Megadeth, Pantera and Mötley Crüe, never listened to.
Iron Maiden is damn good too. Just hate the lyrics and Bruce.
SOAD, new generation crap metal.
Kiss, I was made for loving you and crazy crazy nights are good. Rest are songs anyone could write. Rock, not heavy metal.
Just felt I had to tell you

This was "of all time" not "of the 70's and 80's". Nu_Metal is better than any of the crap on that list. Slayer should have been on that list too.AllmightyOz wrote:

Led Zeppelin isn't metal, you fruit baskets.
umm black sabbath of course, they did create it
eerr I'm more of punk fan but i would go with Rammstein....is that heavy metal?????? if not what is?
New metal? Are you talking about this Papa Roach, Limp Bizkit stuff? You cant compare such bands with metal band like Slayer, Metallica or Pantera. A highgain guitar alone doesnt create metal. Nu_Metal is absolut f*cking dead!!!M1-Lightning wrote:

Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin did, but the Godfather of metal is Ozzy Osbourne so for the oldies I choose Sabbath.TheFlipTop wrote:

'Tallica ftw baby
Sepultura!! But as they`re not on the list, i`ll go for Maiden. Been around for years and still fucking awsome.
Simple Plan
Of All The Critics The Only One I Admit Here Is That I Forgot Putting Slayer In The Fucking List. For Those Slayer Fans I Beg Your Pardon. The Rest Of The Critics Are Wrong. If Your Band Isn't In The List Vote Other. But How The Hell Can Some People Say Balck Sabbath Is Not Metal Or Soad Is Not Metal, Just Coz One Is Old And The Other New? So, The Only Metal Happened Between 1980 And 2000? My Two Cents.
Just one guy talking here and I'm not one of the critics but saying "Greatest Heavy Metal Band of all times" does sort of imply bands that are "classic" I would think. Peoples' definitions of metal differ so much though so its not like you can ever please everyone anyway. There are probably more people out there that would group nu-metal or mallcore as I like to call it into their definition of metal than wouldn't but there are plenty of diehards out there that would never even consider it for instance, that and the notion that it should maybe be a classic band probably led to the scrutiny of using System of a Down on the list. Maybe I'm wrong but hell, I'm just typing this because I can't get to sleep.
