Favourite metal song?

I don't like trashmetal.

More into Sludge and postmetal or, if it should be wild, screamo, post-hardcore and stuff....

Isis - The Beginning and The End

Envy - Footsteps in the Distance

Boneflower - Starless

My two favourite tracks at the moment:
Immortal – All Shall Fall
Godflesh – Regal

C'mon! That's a very though question to answer. At least for me, it's almost impossible to answer. On the other hand, I find it easy to mention several songs, in no particular order, that I love very much and that I never get tired of listening to.

Primal Fear - All for One
I don't have one favorite metal song but it's the one that came in my mind. it's awesome!

Does this count as metal? This? What about this one? And this one? These two probably also count, right? Oh, and can't forget this, this and this. Oh, yeah, and there's this one too.

Um, I don't know music genres. Do any of those count as metal? Well, if they do, then they are my answer. XD

So I'll just show what I'm listening to latelly..
Ulver

Avantasia - The Scarecrow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6wLizV5Xpc&ab_channel=WackenTV

Any of this band works, but here is one.

Sabbath and especially Maiden have a bunch of tunes near the top of my list, too. I'll skip those since they're already well represented here. Five cool songs that immediately sprang to mind when seeing the topic:

Dir En Grey - Vinushka: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APITF3yAvGQ

Manticora - When Forever Ends (probably "only" a top 5-10 Manticora song for me -- most of their individual tracks aren't up on YT -- but all my favorite songs by them are pretty close to all-timer status for me): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPzQcz4iGIE

Ayreon - Isis and Osiris: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6YFbgMzkZY

Leprous ft. Ihsahn (whose work in Emperor is top 10 worthy, too) - Contaminate Me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78-vJwCVJvk

Death - Flesh and the Power It Holds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wK4VPM-0ssU

Marta Gabriel is awesome, polska heavy metal \m/
https://youtu.be/caPi0V_5Tvs

Peavy Vagner and his "Rage" are FOREVER
https://youtu.be/2HaPsPwlUIE

Love and can't never forget Elisa C Martin's vocal (she also singed with early Black Moor)
https://youtu.be/GfRHySn0oTs
"Conquest of the Seven Seas" is the best (for me) power metal album for last 5 years (even if it was made only by Peter Crowley alone)

also Bulgarian prog metal band are awesome too (wish they had more albums)

It's one heck of a stretch and then some, but I think it's worth it to get away with sharing this. Just saw it and it made me lol. We'll just put quotation marks around the word metal, and then I think it'll count.
