"Best metal band ever."

Metallica. What do you think?

Yeah, they're one of my favourites. "Clayman" is one hell of an album.

In Flames are Pretty damn good. I'm not usually into the "bwaaaaahh" screaming vocals, but I.F. are good.

8 strings? Bloody hell.

Must sound like a bass.

In terms of raw ability and talent, the best metal band is Meshuggah. I can see why they don't appeal to everyone, they do play with their guitars tuned ridiculously low.

That's part of why they're so good though, the 8 string guitars bring a level of brutality that no other band can match.

Dream Theater. Keep up.

Wots that? A P.T. album? Deadwing is by far the best album by PT.

I have Train Of Thought.

Sometimes it's awesome, other times it puts me to sleep.

Seconded.

The Glass Prison is arguably the best 13 minutes of music I own.
