Best Metal Songs from a Debut Album
Majesty is majestic! It's fast from start to finish and it's 7:30 min long. Amazing vocals, chorus, riffs and solo.
This is the first song on their debut album (1988) - such a great start! And Blind Guardian are still great, 30 years later!
Annihilator's debut album is so good that every song is awesome but there are 3 masterpieces: Alison Hell, Human Insecticide and Schizos (Are Never Alone).
Human Insecticide is heavier and faster than Alison Hell and I like it.
Human Insecticide is insanely good and deserves to be in the top 10, too.
These teens from Finland blew my mind in 2013 (debut album).
This is one of the top 3 fastest thrash songs I've ever heard.
The video to this track is one of the coolest I've ever seen.
Chills guaranteed right here. If you are not familiar with this song, don't miss the chance - I'm sure it would be a great addition to your collection of impressive metal songs.
There are only 3-4 songs in the world that have ever moved me so much.
It's a very dark, deep, sad and emotional song (released in 2000).
This is one of the most breathtaking vocal performances I've ever heard.
Vox and lyrics: Hansi Kürsch
Guitars and music: Jon Schaffer
Well, in my opinion, it is only the 3rd best song on the album after Into the Coven and Satan's Fall but it is still a beast. Melissa is one of the best albums ever made and it is 32 years old and still fresh today.
A perfect song. Maybe it's somewhat underrated.
Incredible song from their debut. Better was to come.
Trust me, the outro of this song is the most beautiful vocal performance in the world!
Known for his harsh and powerful metal voice, here Hansi Kürsch comes up with his softest, angelic and almost spiritual voice.
The whole song is amazing - the riff, melody, lyrics, etc.
Just perfect.
Amazing ballad giving chills - music, lyrics, story, vocals, the epic outro... The scream is one of the best ever - long, powerful and melodic.
The story behind the lyrics: the singer & lyricist (Hansi Kürsch) saw two car accidents in one week and two kids were killed - a boy and a girl.
In the song this story goes like that: Death took the life of the boy by mistake and to make up for it, the reaper also took the life of the girl, who his soul mate would have been in life. The reaper talks to the girl: "Would you mind if take you? "
