Well, Scissors was my favourite of their songs, and the breakdown at the end I consider to be the heaviest thing done in metal yet. It's not necessarily the loudest, or the fastest, but it's the heaviest because it has the angriest atmosphere of anything.

Not to butt into this sob-fest thread and ruin the mood again, but I'd just like to point out that that is complete bullshit.

First of all, that is completely a matter of opinion and second, I really don't think that "heaviness" is defined even REMOTELY by anger. In fact, all of the heaviest music I've ever heard has nothing to do with anger at all. For example, I would consider anything in the entire genre of doom or drone to be way fucking heavier than anything done by Slipknot ever and fuck man, most of those bands write songs about wizards, trolls and smoking weed. Never about how pissed off they are at the world.

I just listened to that.  I would say the end of "beware" is heavier than that

Wait, listened to what? The every doom and drone band/song ever? Because that sir, I doubt.

It turns me on so much when you agree with me.

[Necrocetaceanbeastiality]

I don't agree with you, I fucked up my quote because I'm an idiot.

[Variable]

lol, I figured.  I wanted to get that in before you could fix it.

but no you ass.  I listened to the end of scissors like that kid was talking about.  Duh

[Necrocetaceanbeastiality]

Fuck you, I'm hung over as a motherfucker.

Yeah, the end of that song is like really shitty grindcore. And I don't consider grindcore to be...heavy, by definition. I associate heaviness with general thickness of sound. Not tempo or "anger".

Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis

That is heavy. Thick. Burly. Vibrates your entire body.

<3 Electric Wizard

[Necrocetaceanbeastiality]

I can only think of two bands that are heavier than Electric Wizard IMO, and that's Earth and Sunn0))). But I am pretty unable to handle drone. I have to say though, the only time I've ever like Kurt Cobain is when he did a song with Earth.

Earth - Divine and Bright

Also, Earth's Hex or Printing in the Infernal Method is probably one of my favorite albums ever and would make an unbelievable soundtrack to a western movie.

[fireflyry]

Don't forget Eyehategod.

[Necrocetaceanbeastiality]

Oh fuck yes.

[Bergerac]

That's because the heaviness I'm talking about is the atmosphere, not 'literal' sonic heaviness you fucking tard.

[Necrocetaceanbeastiality]

Then how can you call a song heavy if it doesn't literally sound heavy?

[defskull]

I'm pretty sure you can call any song heavy.  If a song feels heavy to you then it is.  There's no set definition to what heavy is.
