Fastest song you ever heard? (no SOD ballad)

I can't think of it myself but i wanna hear other people's choices.

Count the beats per minute and that's it.

maybe somthing from Marduk's Panzer Division Marduk? heck if i know. fast is fast.

Dyer's Eve always comes to mind when I think of fast songs.

"Foaming At The Mouth" by RIGOR MORTIS comes to mind....

Anything from Dragonforce. They stink, but they can play fast. (Although I suspect some studio trickery from them)

Dark Angel - The Burning of Sodom

One by NITRO but dont remember the name. That was ultra fast. Also THE GREAT KAT played ulta fast.

Haha easy just pick any lo-fi, blast beating Black Metal band-TJ

Anything by the band The Berzerker.

indeed

I remember back in the 80's hearing the album "Scum" by Napalm Death. I told my roommate at thetime that if metal bands get any faster they are just going to have to be one continuous tone.

Before they got famous, Husker-Du was a local punk band. They made an album called "Land Speed Record". Not metal, but pretty damn fast.

First time I listened more than KISS I was thinking Whiplash and Metal Milita were the fastest...

greatest grind album ever made. it was such a blur of punk speed & noise. i love all ND albums, but the first 2 were definitely classics!

Had it one vinyl. Been on my CD want list for years.

I finally thought of a few...
1. Dark Angel - The Death of Innocence
2. Dittohead - Slayer
3. A Dog's Breakfast - Tourniquet
4. Thread - The Crucified

Toxik - "Heart Attack"

Probably something from D.R.I., Attitude Adjustment, Adrenalin O.D., Cryptic Slaughter or a few others. When it comes to speed I know some bands.

vio-lence?

Cryptic Slaughter were the kings! They did not just crank out 2
seconds of riffage and call it a song ala Napalm Death (I think that is
who I am thinking of). Run out and get "Convicted". It will
change your life.

Heartwork by Carcass is pretty damn speedy now that I think about it. Sure, the speed is broken up by awesome harmonised leads, but it's there. And it's brutal.

Deliverance - JIG

...pretty fast.

I remember when my brother brought that one home when we were in high school. He put it on and I thought our turntable had broken!
