Best German Metal Bands

Definitely the best. This is an elite metal band - they are perfectionists (studio and live). Complex songs and arrangements. Nothing commercial.

They are the only metal band I know that has been improving over time - every next album is better than the previous one. Altogether 10 albums and almost 30 years of exemplary musicianship. The only metal band that has never disappointed me.

I just listened to their 2015 album and, like many times before, I thought it was their best. Similarly to other people, I'm also beginning to think that Blind Guardian are comparable to Maiden and Priest in terms of quality and consistency. - Metal_Treasure

They are really the best. Most talented guys and developed their own unique style.

One of the greatest bands of all time! They have a unique sound, great songs, an extraordinary great singer and not a single bad record! Totally deserve the first place! - BlindGuardianValhalla

Should bee number 2.

One of the best thrash metal bands! Germany has a kick ass metal scene! - BlindGuardianValhalla

Helloween! The prioneers of German power metal! They created a whole scene! These guys are legends! Either with Kiske or Kai or Deris! I don't know why everyone fights over the singers... - BlindGuardianValhalla

Awesome band!

There is no words that can discribe how great this band is! Just listen to their music and you will feel the ultimate awesomeness! - BlindGuardianValhalla

Rammstein aren't exactly metal. - Metal_Treasure

Rammstein is the definition of musical perfection that sets a standard of synchronized metal masterpieces unlike any other; Grand compositions the likes of which include Bück Dich, Du Hast, Rosenrot, Ich Will, Mutter, Küss Mich, Sehnsucht, Tier, Spring, Mann Gegen Mann, Benzin, Eifersucht, Spiel Mit Mir, Engel, Du Riechst So Gut, Amerika, Bestrafe Mich, Donaukinder, Weißes Fleisch, Buckstabu, Haifisch, Amour, Nebel, Stein Um Stein, Heirate Mich, Klavier, Moskau, Waidmanns Heil, and Morgenstern. As the only band that has that many brilliant tracks, Rammstein broke the very ground that Neue Deutsche Härte metal music stands upon.

They are actually hard rock but these guys made it so far! One of the most classic bands! I have been to their concert in July and it was mind blowing! And every record is a classic! - BlindGuardianValhalla

In fact they are more a Hardrock-band than a Metal-band. But songs like "He's a woman - she's a man", "Dynamite", "Now! " and many more are so full of energy that the Scorpions should also be higher on this list.

They are both of hard rock and heavy metal - somekindofaguy

A Vote From Persia

An awesome band in their subgenres - technical and progressive death metal. Currently one of my most favorite metal bands. - Metal_Treasure

Omnivium was my favorite album of 2011 - Caleb9000

Master kai Hansen, after leaving the legendary band Helloween he created another legendary band, gamma ray... That's enough to say I guess - BlindGuardianValhalla

Excellent band. Very talented guys.

A band with no weak spots - godly singer, awesome twin lead guitars, sick drummer with fast double bass, great bassist/talented songwriter.

All band members are masters at what they do. Their most recent album (2014) was amazing, too, so they proved quality and consistency.

Songs: Strike, All For One, Rebel Faction, Diabolus, King For A Day, The Man (That I Don't Know). - Metal_Treasure

One of the best power metal bands! So underrated! - BlindGuardianValhalla

Best. Supergroup. To. Ever. Form
I mean, Tobi is a hell talented man! Every avantasia and edguy song is totally epic! Their new album ghostlights rocks! - BlindGuardianValhalla
