Guest Broskirose Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) What are some of our favorite band's magnum opus? Not necessarily the best selling song or the most well known song but, the masterpiece of a band. For GNR I think almost any fan can agree on Estranged. So how about some other bands/artists?I'll start with these 2 Madonna - Like A Prayerhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zcy6ORQm-iMMuse - Exogenis Symphony (Parts 1, 2 & 3) Honorable mentions to Knights of Cydonia & United States of EurasiaShare, debate, discuss...

Johnny Drama Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 MetallicA's Outlaw Torn - Creeping DeathAlice In Chains's Frogs - Would?Soundgarden's Like Suicide - Slaves and BulldozersFNM's The Real Thing - OMG this is my one of my favourite fucking songs at the momentRHCP's Especially In Michigan - Give it Away or Otherside, cliched, I knowGnR's ComaPantera's Floods - No way, Cemetery Gates man. By the time Floods hit, Phil could only dream of singing like he did on Cemetery Gates.Megadeth's Holy Wars... The Punishment DuePearl Jam's Inside Job - Good tune, but Evenflow is a classic. Nirvana's Heart Shaped Box - Pisses me off hard when people talk about Teen Spirit over this songKoЯn's Here To Stay - Mr. Rogers. That whole "my childhood a failure" line fuckin really resonated with me for some reason - my childhood was fine.STP's Plush - Adhesive, Silvergun Superman, And So I KnowBlack Sabbath's War Pigs - Children of The Grave, but War Pigs a very close second. Love FNM's versionWell the band's out of those that I listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Cemetery Gates too, but, idk, I just love Phil's lower reach on Floods, not to mention the solo/out-solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetchupNotMayo Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Pink Floyd's High HopesYou have GOT to be kidding! Yeah, I'd definitely put Echoes up there as their magnum opus rather than High Hopes. That or the utter classic that is Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only do I think it's the best song on the album, but it's also my favorite STP song. I literally can't recall ever hearing someone say they didn't like that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
