What Heavy Metal song describes you the best?

Imagine this song as your intro or the soundtrack to your life. I think mine would be Priest's "The Sentinel" b/c everyday I feel like I have to fight and scratch to keep and protect what's mine in some small way. Although not as much as the title character has to. Sorry if this sounds really corny, but I think that alot of you guys here are very intelligent people and probably think of this stuff too. Or not Feel free to throw in your two cents. Peace.

"Punk and Belligerent" by Warrior Soul has been my theme song since I was in college.

Before that it was "Teenage Lobotomy" by the Ramones.

Obviously I have a self-deprecating sense of humor.

Vengeance Rising-I Love Hating Evil

Deliverance-1990

For a long time i'd say Paranoid - Black Sabbath... but i'm not really that depressed anymore... just dumped my ex because she "coulden't help me with my mind"

NOt corny at all, man. Isn't this basically why we all are fans of metal? Because there is something there we can all realate to on some level.

Can I give a Top 5 instead? (good thing you limited it to just metal!)

Off the top of my head, and not necessarily in order:

1. TWISTED SISTER - "Ride to Live, Live to Ride"
- I don't ride a motorcycle, so I take this song metaphorically as representative of the attitude I have to keep in order to keep on pushing through day after day after day...

2. JUDAS PRIEST - "You've Got Another Thing Comin"
- I've never tired of this popular song for the simple reason that I love the attitude it portrays. i.e. The rest of the world might think I'm beaten and finished, but GUESS WHAT?

3. MOTÖRHEAD - "(Don't Let 'em) Grind Ya Down"
- The world is full of bastards and it seems like they all know where to find me sometimes. This song reminds me of just where they can all shove it!

4. ALICE IN CHAINS - "Rooster"
- They still ain't found a way to kill me yet...

5. ATOMIC ROOSTER - "Decision/Indecision"
- A song about putting your life back together after everything has fallen apart. I've had to do this more times than I care to admit, but song is ultimately hopeful that I will "find a way back home".

tied with:

5. ATOMIC ROOSTER - "Breakout"
- Another song about breaking out of the "invisible prison" we keep ourselves locked inside of for most of our lives, because only we have the key.

Thank you for a thoughtfull and thought provoking post. Ride on, brother!

I hear ya, bro. My new boss is a control freak with little or no heart it seems (she was giving me a hard time about taking time off when my wife was having radiation therapy for cancer for crying out loud!), so I have to remember that she's not worth the powder it would take to blow her own brains out every time I get wound up with rage towards her. And yes, that Motorhead song is great for keeping her in her place in my own head!

I'd also recommend "Letting Go" by UFO from the No Place to Run album as another good song for a cathartic release of work-related angst.

"No No (Never Again)" by Quorthon

f**k like a beast

That is ridiculous, that sucks that you have to get crap for that when you are going through cancer garbage. Some people just have no heart at all. Where do you work if you don't mind me asking? Thanks for the suggestion I will definitely check out that UFO song.

Holy Mother - Livin' on Luck

Overkill - Live Young Die Free

Frozen Soul by Asphyx

don't ask me I DON'T KNOW !

I work for the City of Phoenix, of all places. I'm keeping a log of all of her idiocy though, should it come down to it.

Lemme know how you like that tune...

" '81" by Neon Cross, similar to my life story pryor to Christ changing my life.


"Forever After" by Troglodyte Dawn because its a remake of a classic Sabbath song but with great godly lyrics and Cheech & Chong samples thrown in just to show that christians can have humor, too. A little bit preachy and oddly humorous, and old school, that describes me somewhat.

HEAVY METAL MANIAC by EXCITER

Chris Caffery - Pisses Me Off

Analog Kid by Rush. Not really metal, but oh well.
