Montségur as #1. Then pick two more from the following: Face In The Sand, For The Greater Good Of God, These Colors Don't Run, The Talisman and When the Wild Wind Blows because I just can't leave any of these out.

Still during the 90's and early 2000's some bands started to do all kind of crazy mixes involving Doom Metal: I remember how confused yet amazed I felt when I listened to this vinyl in 1993. Confessor takes Doom and throws it in a complex time signature labyrinth with guitar riffs not too far...

Great track! Like I said before I believe no one can even start talking about Doom Metal without mentioning Saint Vitus, Pentagram or Witchfinder General. Yeah, I think it's true they pretty much emulated the doomier, heavier and darker side of 70's Sabbath. But if it wasn't for them rehashing...

Amazing show with the band firing at all cylinders. The opener MITRM and Killers are simply mind blowing. The rest of the setlist is amazing as well yet I'll go with Total Eclipse since it was never played again after this tour and the band nailed it 100% here.

There are also some Post Metal/ Sludge bands that occasionally go reaaaaaaaaaaally Doomy. First and foremost: Obscure Sphinx. Amazing band with a jaw dropping frontwoman in Zofia Fras (in every aspect). This track is a voyage. Enjoy. A more well-known name is Neurosis. Starting as a Hardcore...

When it comes to more psychedelic and retro sounding Doom bands (yet giving it a modern twist) Sleep comes immediately to mind. Even so, Sleep isn't even my Al Cisneros favorite band. IMO OM is even more mind blowing and diversified: Another truly hypnotic group that's been around for a fair...

Suddenly the whole Death Doom thing spread like wildfire across Europe: Now, despite recognizing the mastery of Katatonia as musicians, the fact is most of their releases never rang with me, except their masterful sophomore Brave Murder Day. Looking for the Doom parallel of early Opeth? Try...

Was not aware there were so many Doom Metal fans like me here at the forum. That being said, some of my favorite records within the genre. Despite loving Witchfinder General, Pentagram and St. Vitus I won't include them on this list, since their brand of doom was almost identical to what Sabbath...

Another masterpiece... way ahead of its time.

This one suffices... Masterpiece.

IMO, this record is virtually perfect. The only mistake was not including Last Judgement.

Like I mentioned in my post, it is merely my take on what could be a cool edition. It is by no means 100% my prediction on what the band would do if they were to release a Best of. Even so, even if it was the case, I don't think it is that far-fetched, since TWENTY of the tracks on my list would...

And since I'm in a mood for thematic shows... Channel 666 Tour The Wicker Man (The Wicker Man movie) Twilight Zone (Twilight Zone TV show) Children of the Damned (Children of the Damned movie) Dance of Death (The Seventh Seal movie) The Fugitive (The Fugitive TV show) The Prisoner (The Prisoner...

Manuscripts of the Beast Tour The Ides of March (William Shakespeare) Murders In the Rue Morgue (Edgar Allan Poe) The Duelists (Joseph Conrad) Brave New World (Aldous Huxley) Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Samuel Taylor Coleridge) When the Wild Wind Blows (Raymond Briggs) Lord of the Flies...

Maiden History Tour: Stage 1 - WW2: Aces High Tailgunner The Longest Day Stage 2 - Gulf War: Afraid To Shoot Strangers Stage 3 - 19th century: The Trooper Run to the Hills Stage 4 - WW1: Paschendale The Aftermath Death or Glory Stage 5 - Medieval Eastern Asia: Senjutsu Genghis Khan Sun...

Only recently came to the conclusion Metallica don't have an officially self-released "Best of". Here's my take on what could be a cool 2-disc set: Disc 1: 72 Seasons Hardwired Dream No More Spit Out the Bone That Was Just Your Life Frantic * Some Kind of Monster (single version) The Unnamed...

Best fast banger: Plenty of amazing tracks on this department. "Aces High" is by far my favorite yet I think I'll go with "Montségur" at #2. Best long epic: Easily "Rime of the Ancient Mariner". Best long based on books or movies: Yeah... "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" once again. "Sign of the...

"Sign of the Cross" (Former members) This track is in my top ten and is, by far, my favorite post 80's one. Furthermore, it has everything Maiden's top tier epics are known for. I prefer Rock in Rio's live version: a slightly faster pace truly benefits the track and, obviously, Bruce's...

My #1 pick is easily Long Beach 1985 (the gig that came out in audio format... on the video one Bruce kinda lacks muscle on a couple of songs). Then I would also love to see them on their fiercest version during the Killer World Tour. 1983 is a really close second, too.

If it was just personal favorites: Disc 1: Sanctuary Phantom of The Opera Murders In the Rue Morgue Genghis Khan The Number of the Beast The Trooper Revelations Still Life To Tame a Land Aces High Powerslave Rime of the Ancient Mariner Caught Somewhere in Time Wasted Years Heaven Can Wait...
