Today I was talking with a friend and he said to me, "I want to ask you a question, If somebody walked up to you and said, "I've never heard a metal song before, What is Metal? Play me a song." What song would you play?, that you feel best defines the genre?" So I decided to ask the same thing to you mylotters, what song would you play? I answered The trooper - Iron Maiden because that was the first metal song I heard a long time ago and my friend answered Breaking the law - Judas Priest.

I would have to say for me I would play Metallica For Whom The Bell Tolls. That is a great song. It is a great song and for me it defines the genre quite well.

It's indeed a great song, but imo there are other songs that define the genre better, but I think this is a very personal question and you have chosen a great song, thank you for sharing your opinion.
