Rolling Stone: Αυτά είναι τα 100 καλύτερα heavy metal τραγούδια όλων των εποχών

Άλλη μία λίστα που αναμένεται να ανοίξει μεγάλη κουβέντα παρουσίασε το Rolling Stone, που αυτή τη φορά μετράει αντίστροφα για τα 100 καλύτερα heavy metal τραγούδια όλων των εποχών. Ή για να το θέσουμε καλύτερα μέχρι τις αρχές του αιώνα, γιατί από την τελευταία εικοσαετία τα τραγούδια στη λίστα τα μετράς στα δάχτυλα του ενός χεριού.

Το Rolling Stone κάνει αυτή την καταγραφή με συντάκτες του αλλά και εξωτερικούς συνεργάτες, ενώ δεν δίνει πολλές λεπτομέρειες για τον διαχωρισμό των ειδών αφού για παράδειγμα βάζει στη λίστα του Motorhead και τους AC/DC, αλλά αφήνει εκτός του Guns N’ Roses και τους KISS.

Οι Black Sabbath με έξι, έχουν τα περισσότερα τραγούδια στη λίστα, ακολουθούν οι Metallica με πέντε, ενώ από τρία έχουν οι Judas Priest και οι Iron Maiden.
