The Ultimate Band???

[Thespawned]

Okay, what would make up your ultimate metal band??

Steve Harris - Bass Guitar
RIchard Christy - Drums / Percussion
Robb Flynn - Vocals
Peter Tagtgren - Guitar
Anders Bjorler - Guitar

i think that would be....interesting LOL

[bluevoodoo1]

drums - richard christy
lead guitar - marty friedman
lead guitar 2 - jason becker
vocals - tobias sammet, or maybe the dude from Heavenly
bass - les claypool
keyboard - j.s. bach :D

i guess they would have to be a speedy power metal kinda thing, or chris barnes could sing and they could be a speedy death metal bit (with keyboards)

[Salamurhaaja]

Well, here's my answer from another board:

Vocals: Vintersorg (Vintersorg) or Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity)
Bass: Joey DeMaio (Manowar)
Drums: Frost (Satyricon)
Keyboards: Peter Tägtgren (Pain/Hypocrisy)
Guitar1: Niklas Sundin (Dark Tranquillity)
Guitar2: Sathonys (Agathodaimon)

Ehh, my picks would probably make a band that would be considered "pussified" to the more heavier fans, but here we go...

Vocals - Ronnie James Dio
Guitarists - (pick two of the following) Steve Vai or Timo Tolkki, Adrian Smith, Yngwie Malmsteen or Jon Schaffer
Bass - Lemmy or Geezer Butler (two classics)
Drums - Cozy Powell (RIP)
Keyboards - Jens Johannson

:drunk:

In the Oxford dictionary they should replace Heavy Metal with Judas Priest. They are the ultimate incarnation of heavy metal! But not without Rob of course...

If I would put together a band with favourite musicians...that's harder. Maybe something like this:


Vocals: Rob Halford
Guitars: Tony Iommi, Viktor Smolski
Bass: Steve Harris, Lemmy, Geezer
Drums: Cozy Powell (R.I.P.), Neal Peart

Or something completely different :cool:

[Mr. Lapin Kulta]

Bass: Cliff Burton (R.I.P)
Drums: Janne Saarenpää
Guitar I: Alex Lifeson
Guitar II: Glenn Tipton
Keyboard: Henri Sorvali
Vocals: Taneli Jarva

Drums: Bill Ward (Black Sabbath)
- He would get a good swing into this band.

Band two:

Guitars: Richard Ebisch (Occult), Somnium, R.I.P. (ImpNaz, Finntroll)
- Two kick-ass players with some awesome riffs.
Bass: Demonos Sova (Barathrum, Arcv666 (Impaled Nazarene)

Drums: Jan Axel Von Blomberg a.k.a. Hellhammer (Too many to list, but Mayhem and Arcturus are the best ones)
