| ______________________________ [Oct 26,2004 6:23pm - Blue ""] soundgarden? nirvana? slipknot? tool? eeeeeeewwww. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 6:41pm - eddienli ""] ummmmm i don't think they know what heavy is. but they have Obituary on the list so they must have some idea. i don't understand this list at all. |

| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:20pm - Crucifire ""] That's some funny shit. At least they got a couple of good ones. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:21pm - Crucifire ""] I didn't realize a lot of those bands were heavy. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:24pm - retzam ""] I'm surprised Radiohead aren't on there. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:25pm - Crucifire ""] I guess that proves it...Carcass crossed over for absolutely nothing. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:27pm - Crucifire ""] I bet the guy(?) who voted Lamb of God was wearing girl pants. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 7:27pm - retzam ""] Nah, this list doesn't prove anything except the ignorance of whoever compiled it. |

| ___________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 10:47pm - Kalopsia ""] i'm actually VERY shocked that Korn is not on this list |
| _________________________________ [Oct 26,2004 10:53pm - Abbath ""] i hate music magazines |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 8:45am - Josh_Martin ""] I always suspected Soundgarden was the 2nd heaviest band EVER. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 9:01am - largefreakatzero ""] Hopefully this list will cause the author of such to be on the business end of frequent gay-bashings. This just makes me nauseous. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 9:06am - the_reverend ""] that is the lamest thing ever... but they did mention killing joke. that band makes any list better. martin atkins all the way! too bad they turned in to a horrible joke dance-band... that crap should have ended with "80's, I'm living in the 80s!" post punk at it's finest!@! |
| ________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 9:10am - Crass ""] I'm just glad swans came before slipknot |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 9:11am - the_reverend ""] swans live in manchester is a low-fi staple. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 10:27am - dan. ""] uhhh wouldnt you think they would mention type o? they are one of the heaviest bands ive ever heard. |

| __________________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 10:50am - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] If a list doesn't have Bathory and Venom in the 1 and 2 spot it just isn't a list. Still I'm amazed by their restraint in not putting Nirvana at 1 as has been the case with EVERY FUCKING LIST SINCE KURT OFFED HIMSELF! |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 27,2004 10:56am - Joe/NotCommon ""] led zeppelin is way heavier then the other bands on that list. |

Or a list called "top 10 bands that really fucking suck"? I don't think you'd want Bathory and Venom at the one and two spot on that list. |

I would take it as an order to go out and buy Bathory and Venom albums instead of food. The second one, I have nothing clever to say. |
| _______________________________ [May 2,2006 8:21pm - retzam ""] I'm bumping this because I forgot how hilarious this list was, and because I never heard Bob's funny reply to my wiseass remark. I'm laughing at your reply right now Bob. |

| _______________________________ [May 2,2006 8:42pm - retzam ""] Hatebreed place at an honorable #50... |
| __________________________________ [May 2,2006 8:58pm - dreadkill ""] ha, i forgot about this gay list. that magazine is rubbish. |

| _______________________________________ [May 2,2006 10:26pm - insipidzombie ""] yea this really isn't worth picking apart. Black Sabbath as #1 is the first mistake |

Although I'm sure that Hail_The_leaf will say something completely Liberal and retarded like, "Well guys, it depends on what your definition of heavy is, ya know, in your own opinion....blah, blah, blah....by the way...George Bush breaks laws lets impeach hime because of gas prices....blah, blah, blah......" and some other boring horse shit along those lines. |

| _____________________________ [May 3,2006 3:15pm - Yeti ""] Godflesh was mentioned, which is excellent, but they should definitely be higher. in terms of heaviness, they are cast iron. |
| _____________________________ [May 3,2006 3:16pm - Yeti ""] and i definitely dont think The Melvins are heavier than Godflesh. call me crazy. |

| ___________________________________ [May 3,2006 7:42pm - immortal13 ""] What do you expect from Revolver? It's all for the money. I gaurantee that if half those bands weren't there, someone would write hate mail and shit and they'd lose money. Most of the bands one the list are bullshit. Slipknot? Led Zepplin? AC/DC? On the same list as Napalm Death, Death, and Strapping Young Lad? it's just stupid the fact that they make it obvious they listen to some heavy bands, and decide to put some of that shit on the list anyway. Fucking media. |
| __________________________________ [May 3,2006 7:43pm - dreadkill ""] fuck the media, ni99a |
| __________________________________ [May 3,2006 7:58pm - contagion ""] i could name 50 bands off the top of my head heavier than those bands. but i wont. because i really cant, i just want to be cool on the interw3b. |

Fucking media. Well, it's tough, because, just as hoser said jokingly, heavy could mean so many things. I straight up don't agree with Slipknot or AC/DC, but Led Zeppelin had a really heavy drum sound, so maybe someone thought fit to put them on there. And Jimmy Page's guitar was pretty fucking distorted for the time period. It's so relative, and "heavy" is such a vague word that it's pretty much senseless to make such a list. Maybe "Heaviest Death Metal Bands" or "Heaviest Classic Rock Bands" would be more sensible lists, but still, if your doing, say, death metal, someone's gonna think heavy means how much distortion, someone's gonna think heavy means how low the guitars are tuned and how fast the double bass is, some people are gonna define it by how evil the riffs sound. It's just a matter that could go around in circles forever. |
