Nailbomb.
I once had a bass student of mine want me to teach him songs from this band.
I told him I couldn't because there was no tonality....

No way, yellow foreigner.

Manowar care not for your disdain.

They are mighty while you are weak.

You need to make your mind up.

One minute you`re moaning about gay singers, the next you`re complaining about an abundance of machismo.

Are you AC/DC?

Manowar is one of the few bands that play HEAVY METAL. No thrash, no grindcore, just strictly real heavy metal. And they do a damn good job doing it. Saw them in 1996 and they put on a hell of a show.

Marilyn Manson - the music isn't too heavy - it's the lyrics and the image that are too out there for me.....

Emperor or any of the Norwegian black metal stuff is always a good test.....talk about over the top.If they had a problem with the 5150 studio,they'd just torch the motherfucker.

I don't know about too heavy, but there are plenty of bands that are too ewtreme for me these days: ie, they are too fast, have no melody and no real songs. Lots of Death/ Black metal bands fall into that category.

There are other extreme bands that I find really hard going:

Will Haven
Neurosis

Are the two that spring to mind: if you're not going to write songs, what's the point?

Behemoth has always been in that way-far-out portion of death metal that I could never understand.
