Would you rate Slayer a heavy metal band? If i recall correctly they´d be most frequently tagged as speed metal, is that about right?

Yes I would rate Slayer as a Heavy Metal Band. Speed Metal is Heavy Metal. It is a sub genre of Heavy Metal, I would consider them more Thrash than Speed though.

Speed Metal, Thrash Metal, Power Metal, Death Metal, Black Metal, Nu Metal, (there are many many more), etc. are all forms of Heavy Metal.

BTW How come you didn't include Bon Scott in your vocalist lists Adler?
 
Nice list Adler, but I'd have to modify a couple names.

Best Rock/Hard Rock/Classic Rock Vocalist
Remove Eddie Vedder (I'd rather listen to a dog licking himself than Vedder)
Add Geoff Tate (Queensryche)

Best Heavy Metal/Hard Rock Guitarist
Remove Jerry Cantrell
Add Eddie Van Halen

How in the hell can you have a rock guitarist list and not have EVH in it? Even when he is playing drunk off his ars he is still better than most. While I like Tony Iommi, I'd have to replace him with Joe Satriani.

Best Female or Female Fronted Rock/Hard Rock/Metal Bands
Remove Kittie
Add Vixen (band had Lita Ford in it)

Eddie Vedder is an amazing vocalist and song writer. I guess you can listen to a dog licking himself then!


Van Halen was actually in the list. I accidentaly removed him and will have to put him back in the list. Thankyou for pointing that out. The man is amazing in concert too, I saw them many years ago. Unfortunatly it was not with Roth but with Hagar.

As for Joe Satriani. He will be on one of my lists. I have not finished yet. I will have probably a hundred differnt lists on here. Satriani is an amazing guitarist along with Steve Vai.

Keep tuned to this thread and you will see more.

Vixen is also a great band. I still enjoy listening to there records. They are putting out a new record as a matter of fact and are going to go on tour.
The reason I have Kittie in the list is because this is based off of my opinion and who influences my music the most. Kittie influenses my style of music and Heavy Metal more than Vixen has.

Great lists Adler! I like the majority of those bands in one respect or another. I like most rock except for this new Brit-Indie rock trash thats all over the radio these days. These are my favourite 8 bands in some sort of order...Obviosuly there are loads of other stuff that I love but these are the 8 that really stand out for me.

1] Alter Bridge
2] Evanescence
3] Something Corporate
4] Jack's Mannequin
5] Brand New
6] From First to Last
7] Muse
8] A Perfect Circle
 
Alter Bridge - Sure like that one tune, I'll say. One Day Remains or some such. Vocals, guitar work, harmonies, lyrics. Has it all.

What about...

Kansas
Jimmy Hendrix
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Steve Vai
Joe Walsh
Max Webster
Yes
Styx
Steve Miller
Eric Clapton
Clutch
David Bowie
And laugh all you want...Devo
Robert Johnson
Jethro Tull
BTO
Foreigner (early stuff like their first and second album only)
Marillion
Nazareth
Police (early albums only)
Ted Nugent
ZZTop
 
Something smells vintage in here huh?

Not that i say your choices are wrong but i belong in the second era of post apocalyptic industrialized phase of music.

Lanc: that was a good song.
 

My taste in music is much more broader than what I have posted so far. Like I said I have a lot more of my lists to make.
 

I love all the band you just listed there except for Devo. The rest are great classics though.

Bon Scott is a legend but he has not been the voice of AC/DC for almost the last 30 years. Brian Johnson took over in 1980. He is the voice that people recognize today.

Ok Adler I see where you are coming from, but I'm just saying that the band achieved breakthrough success with Highway to Hell and that had Bon at the helm.

BTW how come angus young isn't in any of your guitarist lists?

(I also forgot to mention I have Metallica - The videos 1989 - 2004 DVD)
 
Angus is good. He's like Neil Young. A master of the three note guitar solo. King of chords.

And best rock singer...ever. Chris Cornell. Hands down. Plant is not even close.

My list was retro only because Adlers was so well done. I don't want to steal his thunder. But for those who really wish to broaden their horizons, what about blues and jazz.

Count Bassie
Lee Ritenour
Jeff Beck
Okay laugh again...Sarah McLaughlin
or Bad Company (c'mon not in the top 20?)
80s band...Krokus
Satchmo (Louis Armstrong)

...man I could go on and on.

And so who likes classical? Not ready for that leap yet I suppose.

Angus is amazing, however to me he is not in the top 10. Top 15 deffinatly, but not top 10. This is all my opinion my friend.

I own everything Metallica my friend, including original Vinyl (that I bought in the 1980s).
 

Oh dont worry I have not gotten to that yet. I have just started. Give me time to make all my lists.
