In this episode, we dive deep into Rolling Stone magazine's list of the greatest heavy metal songs, questioning their choices and exploring the heavy delineation between hard rock and metal. We discuss the underrepresentation of '90s and 2000s metal acts and analyze the list while sharing personal experiences and research. We also explore the top ten heavy metal bands, their influence on the genre, and whether they belong in the top ten. We delve into the numerous subgenres of metal and discuss the psychological effects of metal music, its evolution, and its origins. Additionally, we examine the challenges that metal bands faced in the past, the impact of changing times and the introduction of MTV, as well as the idea of mainstream success and whether it changes a band's status within the metal genre. Join us as we discuss the power of metal music, the surprising omissions from the list, and the potential biases in Rolling Stone's rankings, all while sharing our own personal experiences and insights into the world of heavy metal. Don't miss out on this in-depth exploration and analysis of another unnecessary list by following Touring Fan Live on YouTube and Facebook!
