Whats the one metal song that pretty much just sums up the genre and how you feel about it for you? The song that speaks to you most about what this genre is all about. Basically like your metal theme song. A song that is like your metal soundtrack. I know for me it is definitely Brothers of Metal by Manowar. I don't think any other song could do a better job of explaining how I feel about metal. Cheesy? Maybe a little but I bet a lot of you have one! So go ahead and list it; Id love to know

Heaven Knight
Mägo De Oz - Manana Empieza Hoy
Sabaton - Metal Crüe
Sabaton - Metal Machine
Blind Guardian - Skalds And Shadows
Highland Glory - From A Cradle To The Brave

any of those + tons of others are good enough to by my "hymns"...sigh

I've given this topic much thought as it is something I have never thought of before. If I had a metal anthem, I would want to be something that personifies metal and music to what it means to me. Therefore, even if they aren't the best songs ever, I'd have to go wiith Machine Head's The Blood, The Sweat. The Tears and Twisted Sister's I Wanna Rock.

Right now i'd say it's 3 Inches of Blood - Crazy Nights, just a glorious epic song about the glory of Metal.

I'd say Mercyful Fate - A Dangerous Meeting.

It expresses the 'epicness' that Metal can be.

1- Ace's High- Iron Maiden
2 Heavy Metal Thunder- StormWarrior

We're Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister hands down.

after that it would probably be...
At First Light - Bolt Thrower
Whiplash - Metallica
Metal By Numbers - Brian Posehn (man, it's sad because it's true LOL ...read the lyrics and you'll know what I'm talking about haha)


there's more ofcourse but that's all I can think of right now.

While any song with really heavy bass would probably do just fine i think for lyrics and music together
Into the Pit - Testament
or maybe
Hook in Mouth - Megadeth

My anthem would have to be "The Chains of Power" by Kataklysm.

"Drag me through Hell, I can't scream much louder.
The voice of freedom: SLAY THE CHAINS OF POWER!"

Peace Sells... definitely the metal anthem

As for the song that I feel like bonded to me... can't decide between Inner Self or Stronger than Hate... I always go crazy when I listen to those two!

So difficult to decide... Something that personifies Metal and how one feels about Metal at the same time?

I have a lot of songs running through my head right now, but I am going to have to go with: Blind Guardian - Valhalla

That's a tough one. No song really sums up metal in its entirety for me. I can however, sum up the metal I listen to with 2 genre-defining songs.

- Gamma Ray - Valley Of The Kings
- Opeth - The Moor

Number of the beast - Iron Maiden One of the first metal songs I ever heard and it got it all imo
Metal Crue/Metal Machine - Sabaton Well they are metal hymns and they are great and fun to listen to
Warriors of the world united - Manowar I'm not proud over this one but it pumps me up when I hear it except for the breakdown about the horse and telling the family how I died etc.

I've posted before about how Metallica's Metal Militia and Exodus' Metal Command have some of my favorite metal lyrics, and those are among my favorite "Metal Anthems". Overkill's Wrecking Crew and In Union We Stand also rank among those. Of course, when it comes to awesome metal anthems, you can't beat Manowar...
