I’m not talking about the FASTEST, the LOWEST, or the MOST CHAOTIC song, but what’s the HEAVIEST song you know?
I’ve been thinking about this for awhile because I’ve been trying to figure out why my choice feels so damn heavy to me. I know faster songs, I know more chaotic songs, I know more doomy downtempo atmospheric songs, but for some reason the way these elements come together in this song just feels so massive and crushing to me.
So with that being said, my pick for heaviest song is:
Tsukuyomi (feat. Travis Worland of Enterprise Earth) from Tsukuyomi: The Origin by Distant
Like I said, I know there are songs that are more way extreme in individual ways, but the way these elements come together in this song just feels so goddamn heavy to me - genuinely heavier than a lot of stuff people refer to as heavier.
Anyway, what’s the heaviest song you know, or at least the heaviest song that readily comes to mind?
A bit of a tangent, but I just saw Meshuggah this week and they are by far the heaviest band I’ve seen live (so far) in terms of sound. And Cannibal Corpse was with them on tour mind you. No other metal band (of the ones I’ve seen live) compares, and I had the stankest of stank face the entire show. I think the second heaviest live that I experienced was Tesseract.
Broooo pretty with you there. When I saw them they played Dancers to a Discordant System and the walls frickn shook… And so thusly was I.
Yeah, I bet Meshuggah are fucking insane live. Jealous of you for that one
