most fun metal song to play...

[MilkyMcMilkMilk]

wow this goes back a ways, as far back as dookie circles, i miss that guy

i'd say
electric funeral
by black sabbath is quite the fun tune
dark and heavy

 

[Mad Russian]

For Whom The Bell Tolls
Aces High
Caught in a Mosh

 

[NickInMesa]

Cupid's Dead by Extreme.

Hullo? Why am I the first one to name it?!?

 

[kiljoy]

Sad But True

 

[Fred19137]

I love to play lake of bodom by children of bodom great fun!!!!!!!!!

 

[rcarraher]

i was thinkin steppenwolf and thin lizzy, but wasnt sure if they were considered. They are hard rock for sure tho.

Born to be Wild is considered by some to have invented metal, or at least coined the phrase....what, with a lyric like "I like smoke and lightening....heavey metal thunder."

 

[mpmackenna]

I'm a newb player, but I have been having some fun with Thunderkiss '65 and Black Sunshine by White Zombie.

 

[bggeezer]

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

especially after the solo

 

[TheHegemon]

Cupid's Dead by Extreme.

Hullo? Why am I the first one to name it?!?

Because I got here late I don;t even like Extreme but that song is awesome to play on bass.

Orion-Metallica
Perry Mason-Ozzy
I'd say Black Sabbath stuff but I always thought of them as hard rock, either way Geezer has some great bass lines.
Cowboys from Hell-Pantera

 

[makanudo]

woow many

Metallica:
The four horsemen
Blackened
Hit the lights
That was just your ilfe
Master of puppets (its fun with full band, but the interlude, if you feel it i find it incredibly beautiful, like adding your own stuff to cliff's line with your eyes closed, unmatchable)

Trivium:
Ember to inferno
Pull harder on the strings of your martyr
Like light to flies
Broken one (i find the intro fun to play)
Becoming the dragon (bass solo at the end, get some distortion)
Edit: The crusade

Megadeth:
Obviously Peace sells
Holy wars
Hangar 18
Trust

Pantera:
Cowboys from hell
Mouth for war

Testament:
well i only know a few which are Disciple sof the watch, afterlife, and trial by fire, listen to some of that.

and well thats it, cant think of many others by now

 

[mike phillips]

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

especially after the solo

deep heavy and dark. love this song. actually anything sabbath is fun to play. heaven and hell is probably my favorite sabbath song to play.

 

[Rogueleader]

I like the songs that go all over the fretboard!
Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls
Sabbath N.I.B, Children Of The Sea, The Devil Cried (Great New One), Zero The Hero, Lord Of This World, Into The Void, Dirty Women (I'm a huge sabbath fan, probably to many to name!)
Maiden - Anything especially Revelations, Wrathchild, Stranger in A Strange Land, whole SSOASS album
Deep Purple - Bloodsucker
Accept - Son Of A B*tch
Opeth - Twilight is my robe, Still life album
Tyr - Rainbow Warrior

Too many to name

 

[shamus63]

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

especially after the solo

Oh, hell yeah!

That drop-D tuning gave the bridge a heavy groove that could not have been captured with normal tuning...even though Sabbath normally tuned to Eb for a heavier sound to begin with.

 

[shamus63]

Having seen Testament on this thread, I'll add "So Many Lies".

Dark, heavy groove...which seems to be a favored feel for a lot of us here.

 

[MadMan118]

Afterlife - Avenged Sevenfold
My Curse - Killswitch Engage
Scream Aim And Fire - Bullet for my Valentine
Nothing too complex or mentally taxing.
That and a lot of In Flames.

 

[Ampeg SVT]

Laid to Rest - Lamb of God
Redneck - Lamb of god
In Dying Days - As Blood Runs Black
Any Iron Maiden songs.

I probably forgot a few.

 

[dodge]

Black Night by Deep Purple is fun to play..............

 

[DoomandHeavy]

Personal Energy-Pestilence
Everyone seems to hate the Spheres album, but I can't get enough of it! Then again, I hated it the first week I had it.

 

[Arpeggiator]

id say - i , scream - down
hit the lights - metallica
Spheres of madness - decapitated

 

[Thrashed]

Most thrash tune basslines are a blast to play; notably Souls of Black by Testament and Blood of the Covenant by Deliverance

Most Iron Maiden is pretty awesome too
