MaidenFans Best Metal Song Tournament

[Siddharth]

Hey everyone! Since GMSC has been on a hiatus (hope @LooseCannon's doing fine), I thought about starting a new tournament, for the show must go on!!

I would request all the members to send me maximum 10 songs (NOT including Iron Maiden songs) they wish to nominate in this tournament, through a personal message. All styles and sub-genres of Metal are welcome and I know there's a hairline difference between Metal and Hard rock in case of many bands but let's still keep it on the heavier side of things!

Last date to nominate songs - 5th August, 2026. From then on, we shall commence!

Really looking forward to it!

Maybe it would be a nice idea to not nominate the obvious songs like Master Of Puppets, Hangar 18, to name a few, to make it a little more exciting.
I was thinking to nominate 10 other songs than I sent to LC for the GMSC for the same reason.

To keep things more varied, I'll stick to one rule: only one song per band or artist on the list.

Same here.

Nice, I'll go for different picks too this time, even though I know you're all looking for an excuse to hear Deconstruction again...

Totally gonna play and totally gonna pick songs outside my own hypothetical Top 10. No point nominating Puppets cos someone else will. Surely. Ooooh, what it no one did, aaaaahhhhhh

Something like that won't ever happen

Does this also discount their solo discographies?

You may nominate songs from their solo discographies.

You guys know what, I have 7 lists with me right now and not one of them have Master of Puppets! There are barely 2 Metallica songs in the nominations right now. So, I'd suggest if you feel the well known songs like Master of Puppets, Tornado of Souls, Crazy Train or any such deserve to be called the best metal songs then do not shy from nominating instead of showing off your varied music tastes (like me)!

Tornado of Souls was on my list, but I deleted it.

Edit: also Holy Wars...

Only 1 day left to send your nominations to @Siddharth folks!
