Top 10 Metal Songs with the Best Bass Solos

The Top Ten
1 Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) - Metallica

I didn't explain something in the list description because I thought it was clear but maybe it wasn't clear.
The list is about bass solos and not about any accentuated bassline. Bass solo is like a guitar solo but on bass. A bassline that is used to create rhythm, obviously isn't a solo. For example, there's no bass solo in Dawn Patrol by Megadeth.
And yes, songs without bass solos shouldn't be on this list.

The entire song is a bass solo.

2 Orion - Metallica

All cliff songs...

3 The Dance of Eternity - Dream Theater
4 Intra Venus - Ne Obliviscaris
5 Metropolis Pt. 1 - Dream Theater
6 Omnipresent Perception - Beyond Creation
7 Sting of the Bumblebee - Manowar

The entire song is an insane bass solo.

8 And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope - Ne Obliviscaris
9 My Last Words - Megadeth

Fatal Illusion is not a bass solo rather a riff, whereas the intro here is straight up Dave's solo

10 Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation - Viraemia

The all mighty god of bass guitar Scott Plumer your legacy will live forever!

The Contenders
11 N.I.B. - Black Sabbath

The bass just speaks to you. Even better in concert!
