Metal Songs With the Best Intro Screams

The Top Ten
1 My Curse - Killswitch Engage

Yep, it was pretty cool

2 Shattering the Skies Above - Trivium
3 The Heretic Anthem - Slipknot
4 Ruin - Lamb of God
5 Tears Don't Fall - Bullet for My Valentine
6 Harvesters of Death - Shade Empire

Brutal and about 24 seconds long. This is a Finnish band.

7 Angel of Death - Slayer

One of Metal's most recognizable scream intros of all time.

8 Mysteria - Edguy

A long (10-11 sec), not easy but perfectly crafted scream - the best intro scream I've ever heard. Tobias Sammet - great job!

9 Silence Calls the Storm - Quo Vadis

About 16-17 seconds. Epic death metal scream.

10 Are You Dead Yet - Children of Bodom
The Contenders
11 The Great Southern Trendkill - Pantera
12 Fire in the Sky - Hypocrisy
13 Make Them Suffer - Cannibal Corpse
14 Destruction of a Statue - Suicide Silence
15 Laying the Demon to Rest - Theocracy

The longest intro scream I know - 23 seconds. Call me if you find a longer one.

16 Dig - Mudvayne
17 Necropolis - The Black Dahlia Murder
18 Don't Bring Me Down - Northern Kings

Absolutely beautiful and powerful scream from Jarkko Ahola.
This is a cover song (Electric Light Orchestra) and there's no scream in the original. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard.

19 Highway Star - Deep Purple

This wasn't already here? Come on! Ian Gillan is great.

20 Queen of the Ryche - Queensryche
21 Masses of a Dying Breed - Miss May I
22 Everytime I Die - Children of Bodom

This is more like a growl and not a scream.

23 Poor Man's Crusade - Demons & Wizards
24 Disturbing the Priest - Black Sabbath

Psychotic screams from the first metal screamer - Ian Gillan (of Deep Purple originally).

25 Eyeless - Slipknot
