  2. Hahahahhahaha not bad idea, I actually understand you, thanks for your opinion mate
  3. I am trying to understand other's opinion so I want to ask you which factors, or what should I call it, are the most important for a song? For me song has to have lyrics which will completly introduce you to the mind of it's creator, his vision of things and that staff. And there is music. For me songs that have endless repeating riffs or small changes in composition are boring and I consider it's creator as not that creative or talentes as I like. I really don't like dirty voices full of rage like Panthera of voices that represents Death and similar genres. Here is my top 10: 10. Sabbra Cadabra by Black Sabbath I love intro which tells you that something awesone is about to happen and as a fan of tenor voices in metal I even more like vocals in this song. This is love song btw 9. Powerslave by Iron Maiden Song is about Pharaoh realizing that he is not God and that he will die soon. I think that everything about this song is exellent: lyrics, riffs, drums, bass and solo is just wow. Solo starts with slow building melody that later explodes and brings cool guitar and bass parts. 8. Revelation by Ozzy Osbourne This masterpiece has everything that song must have if you ask me. It starts like a ballad for wounded planet Earth which is burning in greed of brainless people. Text says it all. Like a Powerslave, at one moment it will show Randy's rage as he shreds through masterpiece of a solo. I simply love this song. 7. Alexander the Great By Iron Maiden Closer track from one of my favorite Maiden albums-Somewhere in time and first song I have ever heard of them at age of 6. Text is not complex at all, it's just history telling of life of Alexander, rising conqueror. What really buys me is music. This song is fucking opera!! This guys know to how to compose the song. Melody builds slowly and you can sense that it won't stay like that!! And battle of solos is provement of that. I recon Alexander solo as one of finest Smith solos. Just epic. 6. Metropolis pt. 1 by Dream Theater I don't quite understand lyrics of song but this masterpiece of prog royalty has music that tells story I understand. Exept fenonenal composition featuring one of greatest instrumentalists for me, this song has incredible vocal parts by James LaBrie before voice catastrophe. Just fucking listen to this song!! 5. Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden Lyrics of this song are inspired by novel of same name and this song is closer of Powerslave album, album that for me set Maiden at the top of genre. Song is 13 minutes long and it is Maiden's second longest song. I don't want to repeat myself, everything I said for previous Maiden classics is same like here so conclusion is it's epic. Period. 4. Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden Song tells a story of last hours of man that is about to be hanged. This is closer song of legendary Number of the Beast, first album with Bruce Dickinson on vocals and last with Clive on drums. For me Maiden song with best lyrics. Music is just perfect and vocals are exellent aswell. Moment that gives me goosebumps even by thinking of it is ending where Bruce screams YEAAH YEAAH HALLOWED BE THY NAAAME. Live from 1982 is just perfect. Listen to it. NOW! 3. War Pigs by Black Sabbath Anti-war song by founder of metal genre. I don't have much things to say exept "this song is fucking classic". 2. Octavarium by Dream Theater 24 minutes opera which is closer of the concept album of a same name. Lyrics is FANTASTIC, music even more. It features some exellent instrumenal parts which shows us why they are insane and why everyone should at least respect them. 1. Change of Seasons by Dream Theater Another 20 minutes song by unmistakable Nightmare Cinema. This fucking song is, exept being a music lesson, a life lesson. Portoy wrote a text how he felt that day when his mother died and how it changed his life upside down. Musical parts are exellent, vocals too and lyrics makes me cri everi taem. At the very end you can see that there are just a few bands repeating to the bottom of the list. I am very conservative and it is really hard for me to listen to something new because I am looking at them like at gods and I don't want to be dissapointed when I find something better. Crazy, right? I just want to remind you, this is MY list which means it is MY opinion and you should at least respect it like I would and will yours. Up the fucking irons!
  4. Hi there pals, I am very new on this site and there is maybe 3 months since I made my first step into progressive and neoclassical waters of music. I adore dinamic instrumentals and bands like Dream Theater, Symphony X and Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force. I really want to hear something new everyday so which bands and instrumentals would be on your all time fave list? Up the irons!! \m/
