Of course. There is no substitute for looking into the bands’ background and lyrics for ourselves. I just really appreciate that the chance of falling in love with the music of truly awful people is far less likely here.
Just one reason Metal Storm is so incredibly important and useful for me, is the fact that when I discover a band here, I at least know the music itself isn’t an expression of nazism or some other evil ideology.
We’ve all probably paid for art made by horrible people. There is no way to be aware of every single band’s exact ideology, let alone the beliefs the individual members. Just one reason why… tbc
To me its the Metallica classic: Disposable Heroes.Everytime I hear that I can't help myself,I have to smash something.Wake Up Dead and Tornado Of Souls by Megadeth are two good runner-ups as well.

Agree with Slayer beign the most headbangable band. If I have to choose just one song, gotta go with Seasons In The Abyss, when the main riffs comes up my head automatically starts swinging.
I've got three (at least that come to mind right now):
Amon Amarth - Pursuit of Vikings (one of the most awesome songs I've ever heard live)
Arsis - Maddening Disdain (of course all of A Celebration of Guilt is riffalicious)
Judas Priest - Painkiller (a classic, if you can't headbang to this, then something's wrong)
