Brave New World by Iron Maiden is one of their best, most consistent albums of their entire catalogue. No filler tracks, Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith rejoined the band the year prior, and the 6 dudes just clicked perfectly and were firing on all cylinders. My personal favorites on that album are: Ghost Of The Navigator Blood Brothers The Fallen Angel Out Of The Silent Planet
It's their last great album imo. Definitely a solid and excellent comeback album but it was definitely downhill from here for Iron Maiden unfortunately. They started getting real repetitive and predictable.
The crazy thing about Judas Priest is that the "Firepower" album actually IS that good. It's probably their heaviest album ever and has great songwriting. Lighting Strike is a banger, it's insane for a band that late in their career to put out some of their best stuff ever.
I'm a boomer millennial too and I remember these years clearly. The 2010s were easily the darkest years for metal since the 70s. Hip-hop was going strong and evolving in exciting ways. EDM was (albeit briefly) on top of the world. Metal was struggling to just to remain relevant. It's weird to say because I remember the 2000s, but heavy music is in a better place right now than it has been for at least 15 years (and it's still terrible lmao).

Man, some of my current favorite bands got their start in the 2010s. Allegaeon, Archspire, Ne Obliviscaris, Black Crown Initiate, Rivers of Nihil, Beyond Creation, Fallujah..

Not to mention Paradise Lost returning to their death-doom roots in 2015 and releasing a couple fantastic albums.

I'll never unserstand Finn's dislike of SOAD. To me they're easily the best nü metal band, if you can even call them that. Their political commentary is fantastic, the riffs and drumbs go hard, Serj's dramatic singing fits the wacky tone perfectly, they can go hard, they can go soft and it's all perfectly balanced by their amazing sense of humor. Legit one of the best bands out there, IMO
Rammstein songs (from the 4-5 first albums at least, after they lost their inspiration mostly) only sound the same if you're not paying much attention, or you could say that of any band with a definite sound: Maiden, Slayer, Type O, Korn, etc.
Totally agree with what you said here. We all have a tendency to put bands in boxes, if their sound isn't exactly matching our tastes when we get introduced to them. Only IF you're digging deeper, you automatically pay more attention and are able to pick up the different nuances. Happened to myself with Rammstein, and I eventually became a fan.... with the other bands you mentioned not so much tbh
I say The Scorpions were the bookends of Hair Metal. It started in 1984 with "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and it ended in 1991 with "Winds of Change" (it came out in Jan 1991, 8 months before Nirvana exploded)
@@HurQlez Fair, and perhaps Motley Crue's debut was a bit too heavy and raw for what we now know as hair metal. IMO the sound started with Pyromania 83
I'd put Zero Signal by Fear Factory as my pick for 1995. I remember seeing the Mortal Kombat movie in the theater and hearing it play during the Johnny Cage/Scorpion fight. I went out and bought the Demanufacture the next day.
That's what I was surprised about as well. Especially with as I lay dying. That guitar tone is the sound of an era and style of metalcore. Killswitch had the choruses for me that decade, but as I lay dying had the riffs. You could probably play any track off "an ocean between us" without vocals and people would know the tracks right off the bat
Their music is great, but vocals (extremely raspy or high, idk, i like more balanced stuff) I don’t like it! I like his vocals in breaking the law, victim of changes, deceiver deceiver, electric eye
I saw Neurosis in 99 opening for Soulfly-same kind of experience that you described: The floor cleared out almost completely with only a few dudes kind of swaying around as if in some neurotic trance. Up to that point I’d never seen people outwardly booing and mocking an opener on such a high profile tour. “We hate you, go away” was heard echoing throughout the venue. And then Hatebreed (pre-Perseverance) came on and the place exploded. They saved the day, honestly. It seemed like an all out riot was about to erupt. I’m not exaggerating.
Yeah, guess what they were inventing a genre at that time and happily we able to see clearly know. They did some of the most intense performances through history back then and happily again not more than of a group of high school college bois are thumb downing cuz them got bored?? You always got to bore tbh..
There are many haters but DeafHeaven's Dream House should have taken 2013. They weren't the first to do that kind of music but it's hard to argue that it wasn't the most influential that year.
I am a big Tool fan, and even I would agree that there are many more choices I would pick over Tool if we are choosing the best metal song of the year.
Limp Bizkit's (but mostly Durst's) reputation probably has to do with Rollin' not being on the list. The band's album success was also far more inconsistent than Slipknot's (see: Results May Vary)
Death is not overrated. I get not liking some of their stuff, but they were consistently at the forefront of death metal and prog metal in their time. Rip Chuck.
Great bands? oh, do you maybe mean bands like Motorhead, the godfathers of any metal genre that's heavier than straight heavy metal? Bands like Pentagram? Or god forbid, Black Sabbath?! Naaah, that can't be right Goddamn, these youtube music experts are something else. Yeah, yeah, I admit, I only dropped by to get triggered like a bitch, cause I'm bored, lonely and not high enough
Here's my "Should've Been" list 1983: "Black Magic" Slayer 1990: "Domination" Pantera 1992: "Them Bones" Alice in Chains (If they're metal) 1994: "The Mortician Flame" Acid Bath 1996: "The Beautiful People" Marlyn Manson 1997: "My Own Summer (shove it)" Deftones 1999: "Spit it Out" SlipKnot 2000: Disturbed or Linkin Park 2001: "My Plague" SlipKnot Rammstein respectfully took 2019. Also why and how tf is poppy the runner up when Unsainted and Nero Forte from WANYK was blazing????
Thanks Finn! Good points. I wouldve liked Dillinger’s 43% burnt to represent them. Very happy Lorna was up there. Thanks for your hard work Finn… I can now make my reac video to yours❤
Loudwire was doing okay for a while, but three Tool songs and FOUR Ghost songs really hurt the validity of this list. Also, the song of the year for 1990 OBVIOUSLY should've been "Ritual" by Blasphemy 😎
KoRn is my favorte band, again, after giving up on them after Issues. I moved onto death metal in 2001. Now I don't listen to a lot of death metal anymore and rediscovered KoRn a couple years ago. First six albums are top notch. Issues, Untouchables and TALIM grew on me. After that it's a nosedive.. #BringBackDave
No writing on the walls by underoath for 2006 off an album that went #2 on billboard? No Counting Worms by Knocked Loose in 2016? No Just Pretend by Bad Omens for 2022? Wtf?
Regarding killswitch - From what I’ve seen most people prefer howard, and while I do agree I’d probably have to say his cleans are my favorite in metalcore by far, i’m not huge on cleans and I think jesse’s screams are far superior. But when on the rare occasion that I want to hear some cleans, can’t go wrong with jones regardless of what band he’s in atm.
@@legendsidewinder7206 That is probably the best Slayer album I've heard. Hot controversial take, I know. But it wasn't the defining metal album of that year.
Bro tears dont fall 2005,killswitch is 2003,and they didn’t put shadow moses,metalcore is the biggest metal genre of 2000’s I dont understand how’s there only 1 metalcore song on the list
I loved progenies of the great apocalypse. The whole album is awesome. Dimmu borgir says they’re not black metal, which I agree with. They have black metal elements, but aren’t solely black metal.
If you count nu metal as metal then Korn and linkin park for sure should have taken over the late 90’s early 00’s. Also I’m assuming they put avenged sevenfold and bring me the horizon as rock artists because there is no way they would not be included otherwise
I don’t mean to hate, we clearly have very different tastes in metal and that’s alright. But “Korn is one of the 4 most important metal bands.” May just be the single worst take I’ve ever heard.
Bro they didn’t put waking the fallen on 2003 and tears don’t fall on 2005 wtf is this list,they have 5 ghost songs and 3 tool,they make me think Metallica and panthera suck to tool and ghost,wtf
It's quite great and entertaining album, but... I don't think like it should be on a list. It is something everyone should find themselves on their own. Like I did (almost).
Finn is not a Death stan. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. Also, 1999 has got to be Fermented Offal Discharge for me, personally.

When Finn says that, I'm like, "Okay, this is gonna be good!"😅

If Alice in Chains isn't metal, then Ghost is DEFINITELY not metal.
Yes! To me AIC is metal and Finn says Tool is hardly metal but it's more metal then Ghost.
AIC is more metal than Tool and I enjoy both. I don’t care cause just hit play and listen to whatever I want.
AIC is definitely metal and imo the best grunge band
Love aic. Not really metal.

I saw them live about a year ago, and I do not understand the hate, Deafheaven are pretty damn good at what they do
Would love to see Finn’s version of this same list.
I am a big Tool fan, and even I would agree that there are many more choices I would pick over Tool if we are choosing the best metal song of the year.
Mouth For War is my favourite Pantera song too. Lol
I love your videos man, and I respect the way that you don't give a fig if you piss people off!
Nookie is actually THE metal song of 1999, also rollin is the song of 2001, sorry slipknot your time doesn't come until duality
fax
Limp Bizkit's (but mostly Durst's) reputation probably has to do with Rollin' not being on the list. The band's album success was also far more inconsistent than Slipknot's (see: Results May Vary)
Death is not overrated. I get not liking some of their stuff, but they were consistently at the forefront of death metal and prog metal in their time. Rip Chuck.
You're wrong about Death. We wouldn't have other death metal without Death. But that's just like, my opinion man.
You'd have Possessed, or even Sepultura who made death metal earlier than Death
Also, where is Static X, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for My Valentine, Motley Crue, Sevendust, BMTH, Trivium etc.
Avenged sevenfold 2003,Bfmv 2005 and Bmth 2013,this list is a joke
To be fair, the late 70s had some great Judas Priest albums, and the NWOBHM has some solid bands
Also for 2011, Havok released Time Is Up. Amazing thrash from Colorado
Eh, Deep Purple…”Speedking”? There were more than Judas Priest…..
Great bands? oh, do you maybe mean bands like Motorhead, the godfathers of any metal genre that's heavier than straight heavy metal? Bands like Pentagram? Or god forbid, Black Sabbath?! Naaah, that can't be right
Goddamn, these youtube music experts are something else.
Yeah, yeah, I admit, I only dropped by to get triggered like a bitch, cause I'm bored, lonely and not high enough
Lamb of God / Walk With Me In Hell should have been the pick for 2006
Ghost sounds like a Halloween party monster mash music.
And I love it
Wow, septicflesh great mass deserves nothing but praise, the whole album is phenomenal, I’m not mad just disappointed
System of a down should be on that list easily
100%
I like your new content and the stuff you say reminds me of all the 2000’s scene kids I grew up with. Subscribed
"I don't listen to Iron Maiden." - Dude is covering best metal songs of the 80s and doesn't listen to Maiden. GTFOH
Stream idea: make your own list of best metal songs through the years. I agree, four Ghost songs is overkill and I have nothing against them.
1 is too much
I love how it feels like some point onwards the grammy co-hosts took over the article lmao
Here's my "Should've Been" list
1983: "Black Magic" Slayer
1990: "Domination" Pantera
1992: "Them Bones" Alice in Chains (If they're metal)
1994: "The Mortician Flame" Acid Bath
1996: "The Beautiful People" Marlyn Manson
1997: "My Own Summer (shove it)" Deftones
1999: "Spit it Out" SlipKnot
2000: Disturbed or Linkin Park
2001: "My Plague" SlipKnot
Rammstein respectfully took 2019. Also why and how tf is poppy the runner up when Unsainted and Nero Forte from WANYK was blazing????
Megadeth rules but I'm mostly into Technical Death Metal, Progressive Metal, Some Nu-Metal and Black Metal.
Megadeth 1000 times better than Shitallica
@@chronicthingz Agreed!

Thanks Finn! Good points. I wouldve liked Dillinger’s 43% burnt to represent them. Very happy Lorna was up there. Thanks for your hard work Finn… I can now make my reac video to yours❤
Lame
Loudwire was doing okay for a while, but three Tool songs and FOUR Ghost songs really hurt the validity of this list.
Also, the song of the year for 1990 OBVIOUSLY should've been "Ritual" by Blasphemy 😎
Lol Blasphemy
@Leave_The_Hall_69 the world's best terrible band 🔥
@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic definitely a tragic one, too bad they were retconned into a fashion trend
@Leave_The_Hall_69 hahaha, the legion of bands in gas masks that followed was truly fantastic
@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic truly CRANGE FR FR
KoRn is my favorte band, again, after giving up on them after Issues. I moved onto death metal in 2001. Now I don't listen to a lot of death metal anymore and rediscovered KoRn a couple years ago. First six albums are top notch. Issues, Untouchables and TALIM grew on me. After that it's a nosedive.. #BringBackDave
No Painkiller by Judas Priest.......yawn!
Finn I’m digging the self deprecation as of late on your channel. Keeping it real. I appreciate.
No writing on the walls by underoath for 2006 off an album that went #2 on billboard?
No Counting Worms by Knocked Loose in 2016?
No Just Pretend by Bad Omens for 2022? Wtf?
Idk if Just Pretend could be considered a metal song
@@frozenandchosen I mean anything with low guitars these days is called metal. Like sleep token isn't a metal band but here we are
@@TWProductions90 fair enough, I just feel like JP is even less metal than a lot of ST songs but I do get the reasoning
Just pretend isn't even a top 3 song on that album lol
@ghostofmoredishesmorebitch1507 wasn't a single but became the biggest on the album and propelled them to a higher level....I'd say you're wrong lol.
Regarding killswitch -
From what I’ve seen most people prefer howard, and while I do agree I’d probably have to say his cleans are my favorite in metalcore by far, i’m not huge on cleans and I think jesse’s screams are far superior. But when on the rare occasion that I want to hear some cleans, can’t go wrong with jones regardless of what band he’s in atm.
Toxicity is unquestionably THE album of 2001. No joke.
iowa also is in there
@@fyefmofficial I thought that was 2002. Either way, stellar record 🙂
@@fyefmofficialI would say Iowa
God Hates Us All ??
@@legendsidewinder7206 That is probably the best Slayer album I've heard. Hot controversial take, I know. But it wasn't the defining metal album of that year.
I love Killswitch but 2004 should’ve been Tears Don’t Fall.
2009 - The Final Episode
2010 - Second & Sebring
Without a doubt!
Bro tears dont fall 2005,killswitch is 2003,and they didn’t put shadow moses,metalcore is the biggest metal genre of 2000’s I dont understand how’s there only 1 metalcore song on the list
Imagine not listening to Iron Maiden.
Finn, it's like you and I have opposing metal tastes. I love Tool, SOAD and Gojira, and Mastodon is probably one of my top 3 bands of any genre.
When he said gojira is a b tier band my blood pressure rose
This dude really has the worst takes of all time. But he probably does it for rage bait
That Firepower album from Judas Priest was a banger. It is one of their best albums. It doesn't break any molds but it is very well done.
2007: Avenged Sevenfold Afterlife
2010: Avenged Sevenfold Nightmare
2013: Avenged Sevenfold This Means War
2016: Avenged Sevenfold The Stage
I loved progenies of the great apocalypse. The whole album is awesome.
Dimmu borgir says they’re not black metal, which I agree with. They have black metal elements, but aren’t solely black metal.
If you count nu metal as metal then Korn and linkin park for sure should have taken over the late 90’s early 00’s. Also I’m assuming they put avenged sevenfold and bring me the horizon as rock artists because there is no way they would not be included otherwise
Progenies of the great Apocalypse is an *incredible* song when you take the vocals out of it. Absolutely epic in the literal definition of the word.
I think the Grammys helped them out with this list.
how is death overrated?
I don’t mean to hate, we clearly have very different tastes in metal and that’s alright. But “Korn is one of the 4 most important metal bands.” May just be the single worst take I’ve ever heard.
Loudwire really shat the bed on the early 10's picks. Also 2022 lol
Arch enemy is great
Bro they didn’t put waking the fallen on 2003 and tears don’t fall on 2005 wtf is this list,they have 5 ghost songs and 3 tool,they make me think Metallica and panthera suck to tool and ghost,wtf
Every TOOL win is justified...period lol
I heard SOD when I was 10 when it came out my neighbors dubbed it on cassette. My life totally changed.
Tool's Lateralus is an experience. Amazing album.
It's quite great and entertaining album, but... I don't think like it should be on a list. It is something everyone should find themselves on their own. Like I did (almost).
Picking Opeth over Gojira is so stupid. They had every opportunity to pick Flying Whales
They couldn’t find the whales
Fuck yea “ 43% Burnt” for 1999
Seconded
Loudwire writers only listened to ghost from 2010-2016 apparently
Finn is not a Death stan. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
Also, 1999 has got to be Fermented Offal Discharge for me, personally.
He is obviously not a female, so that makes sense
@@Leave_The_Hall_69 Neither am I, but I love that band to bits.
Wym every rammstwin song sounds the same?
Finn, death is UNDERRATED bro
Get outta here. Every metal hipster nerd is riding this shit... Worst thing that could have happened to metal imo
@@MrHamtits you’re the metal hipster with the hot take that they’re the worst thing to happen to metal 😂
