Heaviest Metal Songs of the 21st Century

Please, don't add Slayer, Metallica, Slipknot, etc., because even the heaviest thrash metal songs wouldn't sound heavy next to the songs on this list.

If you aren't sure what is the idea of "heavy" in metal as of today, play at least the samples to the songs that are currently in the top 3:
Pandemonic Hyperblast by Anaal Nathrakh
Carrionshine by Cryptopsy
Spill the Dirty Blood of Jesus by Infernal War
The Top Ten
1 Pandemonic Hyperblast - Anaal Nathrakh

Very heavy but I hate it!

2 Carrionshine - Cryptopsy

It's heavy start to finish but the sound they get at 1:48-2:00 is really insane. Nuclear explosion?

3 Spill the Dirty Blood of Jesus - Infernal War
4 The Violation - Fleshgod Apocalypse

I think that the symphonic arrangement makes the sound very dense and although it brings some melody, it actually makes the song less accessible.

Listening to it just makes me speechless...

5 Castigation and Betrayal - Anaal Nathrakh
6 Slaves Shall Serve - Behemoth
7 Two-Pound Torch - Cryptopsy
8 Quantum Catastrophe - Brain Drill

This madness lasts for about 11 minutes. Most of the other songs on this list are about 3-5 minutes long.

9 Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis - Xavlegbmaofffassssitimiwoamndutroabcwapwaeiippohfffx
10 Bleed - Meshuggah

How the hell is this not number 1?

Those damn drums.

The Contenders
11 Let the Blood Spill Between My Broken Teeth - Benighted

There are several bands named Benighted - this is the French band.

12 Kafir! - Nile
13 Unveiling the Abomination - Vulvodynia
14 666 - Slaughter to Prevail
15 Apocalyptic Feasting - Brain Drill
16 C**tcrusher - Infant Annihilator
17 Disemboweled Engorgement - Extermination Dismemberment
18 Agorapocalypse Now - Agoraphobic Nosebleed
19 Phathom - Portal
20 Survival - Extermination Dismemberment

These guys 😳

Extermination Dismemberment is a fairly underground slam/brutal death metal band from Belarus, of all places. Their music is flat out destructive. This is probably my favorite song by them

21 Curtain - Portal
22 Sullen - Impetuous Ritual
23 I, Despoiler - Ingested
24 Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel - Behemoth
25 Boiled Angel - Dragged Into Sunlight
