Burzum - Det Som En Gang Var (Not my favorite song from Varg, but the atmosphere it creates is unparalleled. One of the riffs is awesome too.)
Symphony X - The Odyssey (Words can't really describe how good this song is. Amazing. The solos, keys, and drums area all great through the 24 minutes)
Opeth - The Moor (The intro alone is worth all the praise this song gets from us Opeth fans. Everything about the song is perfect, Mikael's vocals, the acoustic guitars, the heavy guitars, also I heard there is a sigh in the song, and nobody know how it came to be there. None of the band members sighed while recording, so I wonder what it was...)
Nile - Unas Slayer of the Gods (The horns in the middle of the songs are what really make this song a favorite of mine. The solo helps a little too)
Iced Earth - Dante's Inferno (My favorite Iced Earth song. It has some of the best lyrics and riffs ever. "Abandon all hope who enter here")
Iron Maiden- Rime Of The Ancient Mariner (Maiden must be mentioned in this list for me. THis is my favorite 10+ minute song by them because of the mellow part of the songs and the feeling that this song evokes]
I could go on and on, but I won't. The reason I didn't choose a Dream Theater song is because I can't choose one, same goes for Porcupine Tree. Also there are way more good Opeth songs than this, but I won't post them all.
Thanks for posting!

Written by baldur on 07.02.2007 at 21:05 It is a Burzum song form the album Filosofem (my avatar). I didn't put some accents in, so maybe that messes up your translation. Here it is with the accents: Rundgang Um Die Transzendentale Säule Der Singularität. In english, it is supposed to mean "Tour Around The Transcendental Pillars of Singularity"

NIle-unas slayer of the gods Nargaroth-7 tears are flowing to the river Summoning-Some of their songs in their "Dol Goldur" (I don't remember the names exactly because my cd player doesn't display names) Iron Maiden: the ones mentioned above by MetalSpider Well, this is all I can remember now. The reason behind why I like these songs are simple enough, because I like their music.

Well the most obvious one to me is Meshuggah's Catch 33. Neurosis has a lot of songs that are over ten minutes, and I enjoy most all their stuff. One of my favourites is probably the title track from Through Silver in Blood. Percussive... repetative... awesome. Also on the list is the only Isis song I really liked: The Beginning and the End from Oceanic.

Deep Purple have lot of live performance songs over 10, even 20 minutes.. My favourites are Child In Time (18min) and Wring That Neck (34 min). Green Carnation - Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness Song is totaly awesome, one song is whole album.. Only boring parts are when some screaming girl have solo vocal performance.. She is so bad that i had to delete few minutes of song to listen it in without getting nervous  Symphony X - The Odyssey Masterpiece! Iced Earth - Dantes Inferno Dream Theater - Change Of Seasons Iron Maiden - Sign Of The Cross

In descending order, my favorites: (1) "Pushit (Live)" - TooL, from album "Salival" I love the use of the Tabla by Danny Carey. (2) "Hearts Alive" - Mastodon, from album "Leviathan" Just unexpected epicness. Outro is phenomenal. (3) "Light of Day, Day of Darkness" - Green Carnation, from album "Light of Day, Day of Darkness" Album with only one 60min. 06sec. song. Epic journey, very progressive style.

I am a big fan of Nile's song "Unas Slayer of the Gods" from their album 'In Their Darkened Shrines.' Not only does Nile's excellent songwriting take you on a journey through Egyptian lore while keeping you entertained and on the edge of your seat but the song also just happens to kick ass. A favorite of mine. "HIS EXISTENCE IS EVERLASTING!"

1349-Hellfire, great black metal song, its actually 13:49 long and Achilles; Ecstasy & Agony in 8 parts by Manowar, its around 24 minutes long, it takes alot of patience to sit through and believe me, after your done youll not wanna hear Manowar for a while, yet strangely its still a good song.

Even tho I don't listen to Elvenking much these days, I still think that their song A Poem for the Firmament (12:09) is really amazing and beautiful song.

Has anyone mentioned "Walking In The Garden Of Ma'at" by Lykathea Aflame? Not much going on in this song, but it's very calming and easy to listen to.

Currently in my files I have 131 songs that run 10 minutes or more, and I like most of them so it's not easy to single anything out. If I avoid some obvious ones like Opeth, Dream Theater and Iced Earth it still leaves much to choose from... So I guess I'll pick something that I've discovered just recently, then my favorite must be "Adulruna Rediviva" by Therion, the 13,5 minutes long epic finisher track off their latest masterpiece. It is just so massive and intense, filled with many parts that are related to each other and flow together into a solid powerful song. One of these parts strangely reminds me of some Gamma Ray song, because the vocal melody is very similar to it. I guess that song was Dethrone Tyranny or some another track off the No World Order album.
