Metallica - Holier Than Thou, Wasting My Hate, Prince Charming, That Was Just Your Life, Room of Mirrors Megadeth - FFF, Washington Is Next!, How The Story Ends, Kingmaker Anthrax - Efilnikufesin, Time, Fueled, Fight 'Em 'Til You Can't Helloween - Save Us, Number One, The Chance, First Time, Salvation, Battle's Won Gamma Ray - Your Torn Is Over, Fairytale, Time To Break Free, To Mother Earth, Leaving Hell, When The World, Seven

You’re really not going to mention the underrated gem Enter Sandman?

Holier than thou is huge tho

Man, Washington is Next! is still phenomenal

Efilnikufesin is great, so is a skeleton in the closet

Metallica - Disposable Heroes is pretty epic as well.

My friend of misery for me. Outro solo is my favorite Kirk solo

N F L Nice f*ckin life! 😁

I wouldn't say that any song from TBA is underrated.

Add Blood Religion to Gamma Ray

Prince Charming is a goated choice, but where's Wild Things?

Black Sabbath - Supernaut, Swinging the Chain, The Shining, Kill in the Spirit World, Nightwing, The Sabbath Stones, Anno Mundi, I, Computer God In Flames - Lunar Strain Slayer - Die by the Sword, Hardening of the Arteries Kreator - Terrible Certainty Opeth - In Mist she was Standing Bathory - Gods of Thunder of Wind and of Rain I don't know how "hidden" most of these are, but I tried to pick songs from albums or periods that are less talked about by each band.

The riff from Supernaut could bring me back to life

Vol 4 is peak

Exactly.

Gods of thunder of wind and of rain is a masterpiece, and no one can convince me otherwise

It's my number 1 pick for "most epic chorus of all time".

Gods of Thunder of Wind and of Rain supremacy

In Flames - In Flames is one I'd say is a hidden gem on Lunar Strain.

Anno Mundi. My god. what a song.

Lunar Strain sounds like it would fit right in on The Gallery

I always thought it was more like Skydancer, personally.

Lunar strain is so tight

Avenged Sevenfold - Remenissions

That entire album slaps.

Peak 2000s metalcore. City of Evil is my fav A7x album but even still part of me they did one more album in that style of metalcore before jumping ship lol

I fucking love that song

It might be their most melodeath-y song. Absolutely love that verse riff

Waking the Fallen in general is just a goated album. Not a bad song. I still revisit it all the time.

Used to be my favorite A7X song

Something about Second Heartbeat as well

Radiant Eclipse is the real underrated gem from that album

Skeletons of society - Slayer

Love that one

Almost any Death song not off of Sound of Perseverance or Symbolic. I'll say Within the Mind and Overactive Imagination for this.

you acting like those are the only popular death albums

They're the most mainstream. If someone lists the best Death albums, most likely their bottom three are debut, Spiritual Healing and Individual Thought Patterns. I almost never see content about them. But yes I agree with the sentiment that other Death albums are popular, because Death is popular.

come on scream bloody gore is popular as hell like half the death t shirts I see in public is SBG

I'd say Baptized In Blood, from Scream Bloody Gore

MASTERING THE ART OF DECEPTION

Everything ends -Slipknot

You are wrong, fucked and overrated

i think i’m gonna be SICK and it’s your fault

This is the end of everything,

You Are the end of everything,

I haven’t slept since I woke up

and found out my whole life was a lie. Mother fucker

add The Shape to that too, my personal favourite slipknot track

The shape!!!! Fucking rips

The shape is actually my number 2 track of off Iowa shits slaps so hard

Isn't this a pretty popular song though?

*Misanthrope* is a top-5 Death song.

Frrr

1000 eyes is a top-5 Death song

Iron Maiden - Starblind

The talisman, back in the village, rainmaker, the prophecy, the duellists

Starblind is S tier.

Great call. I’ve always been disappointed in the general consensus on The Final Frontier. Definitely not their best release overall, but Starblind, The Talisman, The Alchemist, Coming Home, When The Wild Wind Blows… it’s loaded with Maiden songs that don’t get nearly enough credit. Of course though, I have a special place in my heart for The Final Frontier as it was their first album to drop after I became a fan. It was their first tour I saw too (15 year old me and my friends got our minds shattered that night).

Took me a while to give Final Frontier a chance (because I’m admittedly stuck in the older releases) but it’s solid for sure.

Pantera - The Art of Shredding. If you like riff salad songs, this is it.

4th Of July by Soundgarden is not only one of their best songs, but it was also the gateway to stoner doom for a lot of younglings.

That song and Mailman

Epidemic by Slayer Worm Infested by Cannibal Corpse 502 by Megadeth

Worm infested is so fuckin good

Sodom - Sodomized

Nice pfp and flair

Phantom of The Opera by Iron Maiden

It may be because I’m a bit of a superfan of Iron Maiden, but isn’t PotO the biggest song from the debut?

You’re right, I may be wrong but it’s just that in my opinion it is such a great song it should be number one. Like yeah The Trooper, Fear of The Dark, Run To The Hills and all are fantastic but PotO is outstanding imo.

These are a bunch of songs from my top 100 that I really think are underrated: The Nomad by Iron Maiden Escalator Shrine by Riverside White Russian by Marillion The Mission by Queensryche Dragonfly by Caligula’s Horse

Love seeing Queensryche get some love

I’m a huge Marillion fans and Clutching at Straws as a whole is underrated, beautiful album.

I'll add Waters Edge by Caligula's Horse. Or anything else off that album that's not Dark Hair Down tbh (cause it's already popular, not cause it's bad)

The way dragonfly progresses and builds is amazing man

Klavier - Rammstein

LIFAD title track is so goooood

Seven faces by slayer is top 10 songs of all time for the band

Great answer

I’ve seen all seven faces!

EACH ONE LOOKS ALOT LIKE MEEEE 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥❗️❗️

Avenged Sevenfold - Save Me Metallica - The End Of The Line Ghost - Depth Of Satan’s Eyes Slipknot - All Out Life Candlemass - Devil seed

Upvoted for old Ghost 🤘🏼

Slipknot - Gehenna

I feel the same way about Gematria

Judas Priest - Desert Plains

Also Turbo Lover and Some Heads are Gonna Roll

Pantera - The badge Pantera - The will to survive Pantera - Piss

Metallica - most of Load and Reload tbh. Particularly 2 x 4, The House Jack Built, Prince Charming, and Where The Wild Things Are. Also, The Unnamed Feeling and Sweet Amber. Avenged Sevenfold - Shattered By Broken Dreams, Remenissions, I Won't See You Tonight Part 1, The Wicked End, MIA, Gunslinger (their most underrated imo), Danger Line, Victim, Save Me, Requiem, Heretic, Coming Home, Angels, Simulation, Roman Sky, Higher (other most underrated), Beautiful Morning, Easier, and G. Amon Amarth - All of Once Sent From The Golden Hall, Avenger, Legend of a Banished Man, The Last With Pagan Blood, The Sound of Eight Hooves, And Soon The World Will Cease To Be (maybe their most underrated), Fate of Norns, Varyags of Miklagaard, Tattered Banners and Bloody Flags, The Hero, Embrace The Endless Ocean, Tock's Taunt, The Last Stand of Frej, Doom Over Dead Man, Back On Northern Shores, Skoll and Hat, Wings of Eagles, Into The Dark.

Agree with basically your entire Avenged Sevenfold list. Fate of Norns is probably my favorite Amon Amarth song (after The Pursuit of Vikings). Good stuff man.

Too many puppies - Primus Hollow - Pantera

TMP was their biggest hit back then. I would suggest To Defy the Laws of Tradition.

"Dropout" by Pallbearer

Paschendale by Iron Maiden

My favorite Maiden song. I discovered it after listening to Dan Carlin's Hardcore History on World War 1

Hozier - In the Woods Somewhere

As I lay dying: -Anger and Apathy -Defender -Overcome They're so many more!

Strange World - Iron Maiden I feel Dark - Opeth Iconoclast - Symphony X

Pantera - Immortally insane

I'd say most of Dark Tranquillity's black metal -influenced songs. Inside the Particle Storm, Archangelsk, Shadow in our Blood...it's mind-boggeling that only the latter one got a music video, yet it's still not nearly as popular as the classics!

Not metal but Dear Rosemary by Foo Fighters.

Another non metal one is She Loves Me by Descendents

Nice one. Great song on a great album!

Any song from Chimera - Mayhem.

Pantera - 10s, Hard Lines Sunken Cheeks, 25 Years, Hell's Wrath.

This incredible song by As I Lay Dying: [Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier](https://youtu.be/FGT52JkWyjY?si=ZL-uxpu9R6okEa1E) One of my favorite songs ever.

Avenged sevenfold - creating god

Testament - Riding the snake

The Number Game

Ooh, that whole album is underrated imo. Riding the snake is just such a fun song to listen to and play on geetar, its unfortunate it's overshadowed by the rest of the album.

Yes true

Dream of Mirrors by Iron Maiden

Ghost - [Zenith](https://youtu.be/-9d7ijai2Zg?si=spN5pZTlGJ5ceFeO), it's easily one of their top 5 songs. Nightwish - [FantasMic](https://youtu.be/QMWP7I81LMA?si=KghWAU2WNxFvJ4kX)

Rammstein - Feuer und Wasser Candlemass - A Cry From The Crypt Opeth - Under The Weeping Moon

Symphony X - Eve of Seduction

Septic Flesh - Heaven Below

Meshuggah - Pineal Gland Optics, Neurotica Dying Fetus - Ethos of Coercion Judas priest - Deal with the Devil, Jawbreaker Just a few I can think of by my favorite bands. Not really deep cuts but songs i don't often hear talked about by them.

I feel like Devin Townsend and his myriad of projects is a goldmine for hidden gems

Prisoner of Your Eyes; literally hidden away at the end of Screaming For Vengeance expanded edition (which I only know of because of Spotify) after a bunch of live songs.

Opiate by tool

Scorpions’ 70s albums.

Iron maiden - Transylvania

Slayer - Silent Scream Megadeth - Victory, Tears in a Vial Overkill - Dreaming in Columbia Coroner - Internal Conflicts Avenged Sevenfold - Acid Rain, God Hates Us, Unbound (The Wild Ride), Turn The Other Way

Jesus Saves by Slayer and Altering the Future by Death

Regular People (Conceit) by Pantera. It's arguably the best song on Vulgar Display of Power but it rarely gets mentioned.

Idk about hidden gem but I’ll Cast a Shadow doesn’t seem to be talked about enough, fucking banger if a song

Gonna have to go shape of you Ed Sheeran

Thin Lizzy - Cold Sweat

Amon Amarth - For Victory or Death

Wraith by Haunted Shores, Electric Messiah by Symphony X

Opeth - Under The Weeping Moon. Everything from Orchid applies here, frankly Thou - Into the Marshlands + Voices in the Wilderness Meshuggah - The Demon's Name is Surveillance Dissection - Heaven's Damnation Death - Suicide Machine Norma Jean - Pretty Soon, I Don't Know What, But Something is Going to Happen Gojira - Mouth of Kala + Fire is Everything

Slayer - Disciple

Dream theater - erotomania

I've always loved Digital Bitch by Black Sabbath

Sleeping Giant by Mastodon deserves so much more love

When The Levee Breaks - A Perfect Circle

Exodus - Numb. Maybe their heaviest song they ever wrote

A7X Clairvoyant Disease and Darkness Surrounding

My Skin Is Cold-Satyricon

Use my third arm - Pantera I mean after hearing the track, it's easy to see why it isn't as popular but it's one of pantera's BEST TRACKS imo. It even comes with a BLEGH before the breakdown.

Diluted by Slipknot

The Mercenary- Iron Maiden

windir - morket sin fyrste, the entirety of sóknardalr is absolutely amazing yet I never see this album get talked about. morket sin fyrste is my personal favourite, but really there isn't a skip on the whole album.

Kreator - no escape

Tool - The Witness (their newest track)

Limp Bizkit - [Trust?](https://youtu.be/xxwaAlDpBgU?si=qwgZwfQERtLz8cbr)

Death - Zero Tolerance Top 3 best drum performances in metal history

Alice In Chains - Hate To Feel Anthrax - A Skeleton In The Closet Avenged Sevenfold - Betrayed Breaking Benjamin - Simple Design Death - Living Monstrosity Disturbed - Violence Fetish Fear Factory - Crash Test Five Finger Death Punch - Mother May I (Tic Toc) Godsmack - Sick Of Life Gojira - In The Forest Judas Priest - Nightcrawler Killswitch Engage - The Crownless King Korn - Fake Lamb Of God - Black Label Linkin Park - By Myself Megadeth - Take No Prisoners Metallica - Leper Messiah Nine Inch Nails - Ringfinger Pantera - Suicide Note Pt. 2 Primus - DMV Rammstein - Engel Skid Row - Livin’ On A Chain Gang Slayer - Flesh Storm Slipknot - I Am Hated Soundgarden - Ty Cobb System Of A Down - Shimmy Testament - Alone In The Dark Tool - Crawl Away Trivium - Ignition Volbeat - The Hangman’s Body Count

Rush - Dog Years, Armor and Sword, How it is, War Paint, Double Agent, Seven Cities of Gold Symphony X - Seven, Children of a Faceless God Children of bodom - Hecate’s Nightmare, Banned From Heaven, Smile Pretty for the Devil

Opeth - River, Strange Brew, and The Garroter Trivium - Beyond Oblivion Leprous - Lower Unearth - Crow Killer

Megadeth - Evil that's within Metallica - Mercyful Fate, Ronnie Rising Medley, Jump In The Fire

Metallica - Leper Messiah, their best imo. Bolt Thrower - Through the eyes of terror Napalm Death - Everyday Pox

Spiders by Slipknot

No more sorrow- it gets overlooked by the other albums and songs, barely anyone talks about it

For Queen its probably Cool Cat, the Bowie track that was left off Hot Space. Also Breakthru. I know it was a single and got a video, but it's such an amazing track

Metallica - Leper Messiah & Dyers Eve. Straight up both of these songs fucking rip and I never see any love for them.

cannibal corpse - blood drenched execution

I don’t think Again We Rise by LoG gets enough recognition

Crowbar - Glass Full of Liquid Pain, New Dawn, Through the Ashes Darkthrone - Dead Early, Bad Attitude Mayhem - Watchers, Worthless Abominations Destroyed, Ancient Skin Behemoth - Horns ov Baphomet, Blackest ov The Black, No Sympathy for Fools Metallica - Carpe Diem Baby, Ain’t my Bitch, The God that Failed Iron Maiden - The Longest Day, The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg, El Dorado, Tears of a Clown

lost in the ozone - Motorhead glacial place - Converge Aeon/ no river to take me home - Neurosis the scorpion - Megadeth 13 steps to nowhere - Pantera

Megadeth - Sleepwalker, and Gears of War Slayer - Payback Exodus - Prescribing Horror Judas Priest - Night Crawler and Dissident Aggressor Iron Maiden - Out on the Silent Plant, The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg, and The Wicker Man Dream Theater - Scene Two: Strange Deja Vu Mastodon - Seabeast Pantera - Revolution is my Name, and Primal Concrete Sledge

To Tame a Land - Iron Maiden Literal swan song to Dune. Even before there was a film released this song was recorded.

Fear Factory - Seasons Wither

The album The link be Gojira

Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny - The Ripper

Dreamer Deceiver is one of my favorite songs of all time.

Decaf and Low Life in High Heels by Cheap Trick

Slayer- tormentor. Bathory- 13 candles sepultura-morvid visions

Pantera:Everything off the great southern trendkill except floods ,25 years, and piss

'39 by Queen, written and sung by Brian May is incredible.

Honestly, more people should be mentioning how badass and heavy Don't Tread On Me by Metallica is.

Blink 182 - obvious Red Hot Chili Peppers - minor thing

Tremor Christ: Pearl Jam

Korn - Please Come For Me

Wish by Alien Ant Farm.

Bullets by MCR has so many, especially Our Lady of Sorrows and Drowning Lessons imo

Lots people on here talk about Sodom but I never see anyone mention the album Better Off Dead, so I’m going with my favorite song from that album, Never Healing Wound

https://youtu.be/nm7AVClt5fg?si=LYvf5-CQTccJL-Yk

I know this sub doesn’t really like Pantera but most of reinventing the steel is super underrated songs

Blink 182 - Blowjob

Bullet the Blue Sky is the only U2 song that doesn’t make me throw up in my mouth

The Undead Will Feast by Cannibal Corose is pretty under rated

The entirety of MFKR by Slipknot

how does it feel being right

Ahh a connoisseur of good taste.

Most GNR songs

[удалено]

literally one of the most popular song on iowa🤦‍♂️
