Best Hard Rock/Metal

K peeps..this might sound crazy..but i don't care...i just wanna get this off my chest...this is MY CHOICES & OPINIONS...the rest of u...feel free to join n share with me ur views...seriously...
Best 10 Hard Rock/Metal Artist
1. Black Sabbath - Be it Ozzy or DIO fronting the band...they have always pulled it off...a whole lot of songs that are in the best song category...
2. Rainbow - k...another band with many line-ups and frontman changes...i always loved that DIO era...
3. DIO - well...if any of U out there has his anthology collection..i'm certain that is not enough..cos i have that...and i believe it could do with a few more songs...
4. Rage Against the Machine - if u people know me well enough..this was an obvious choice..i grew up listening to them...and the anger they showcased..was something i always wished i could have done the same as well...
5. Dream Theater - yes...they are the masters of progression...and yes...the tempo changes and all those nicely arranged songs with lotsa patterns are what makes them unique...
6. System of a Down - well-documented to be the 'heavier & noisier' version of Rage Against the Machine...and i've got absolutely no complaints about that...
7. Search - huh? who? haha..they are Malaysians peeps...yes surprise..haha..can't believe i added in a Malay band? now u got 1...i always compare them with Wings..and certainly...they seem to have more hits..
8. Nightwish - just the name alone you'll understand why i love this band...and FYI...the drummer took a 'dare' challenge in which he was supposed to drink a cup full of urine...and he promtply finished that...erks...
9. Stratovarius - k seriously i like this band alot...because of Jens Johanssen..this ex-Malmsteen keyboardist has found a new platform to showcase his keyboard wizardry..ala Kevin Moore & Derek Sherinian (ex-Dream Theater keyboardists) plus Jordan Rudess (the Current Dream Theater keyboardist)
10. Ozzy Osbourne - well...the mad man never seems to lose it even when it seems the world is falling on him...but alas...he kicked-off his solo career with a bang
