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 figured Pantera would have been higher. most mainstream rags usually go on & on about them.

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.

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.

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...

But where is AEROSMITH? Wink

If I were to ever make such a list, Sabbath & Priest would have the #1 and #2 slots. Not sure which order though...

It took him over 30 years to get back at Alice by hiring 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.
