10. Tool 9. Pantera 8. Led Zeppelin 7. Judas Priest 6. Megadeth 5. Slayer 4. Iron Maiden 3. Black Sabbath 2. Dream Theater 1. Metallica
Nothing really surprising other than DT. BTW -- I thought nobody liked Metallica? | |

That's because they tweeted and FB'd about it to get the DT fans to respond. I actually responded, but voted for Maiden. Got a can of worms here - anyone notice that Led Zepplin was on the list? BTW - I have no issue with that! | |

| I have no problem with the list, well I have one... I think Deep Purple deserve to be on the list of any top 10 metal. | |

| It's nice to see that JUDAS PRIEST is ahead of PANTERA and Tool. | |

| I'm sorta surprised to see Zeppelin on there. Not to start a pissing match about who is and who isn't 'metal', but if you're limiting your choices to 10, there's probably a better choice, like Deep Purple for instance.
Ah well, what do I care what Rolling Stone thinks anymore? They're too busy prepping for the glorious review of LuLu and how we're all mouth-breathing morons for not recognizing it as the greatest, most important piece of music ever recorded by Lou and his houseband. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too.

| Metalguy, it was a readers' poll, not an official RS list. I'm sure THAT would've been a lot different. Figured the internet played a major part in DT getting there... - ultmetal wrote:

Judas Priest should be #1. Priest are metal! But where is AEROSMITH? If I were to ever make such a list, Sabbath & Priest would have the #1 and #2 slots. Not sure which order though...

Nothing really surprising other than DT. BTW -- I thought nobody liked Metallica? i dont agree with 8-10. The others are pretty spot on for the most part, although I would order them differently. _________________ | |

| Its looks less like a poll asking who's the best, and more like a popularity contest. | |
