Band

Easily one of the worlds most successful rock bands. The band produce an atmospheric sound, with passionate vocals and lyrics that are thought provoking. They also consistently reinvented themselves.

U2 – Sunday Bloody Sunday (All Rights Are Retained By U2)

Song

This is a power ballad that blends melody with metal. While focusing on lyrics about regret and personal struggle. It is and I think always will be one of Metallica’s most enduring hits.

“The Unforgiven” is a power ballad that mixes metal and melody with introspective lyrics about regret and personal struggle. It’s one of Metallica’s most enduring hits.

Metallica – The Unforgiven (All Rights Are Retained By Metallica)

Rocker

Udo’s raspy vocals is what defined the German band from the 1980’s. As Accept’s frontman he helped popularize European power metal.

    Wow, that Accept album was fantastic. I actually had it on cassette (showing my age!) and played it until the tape frayed. Udo’s voice, that angry rasp, was perfect for the band.
