Top 10 Single Growls in Metal Songs

This is when a vocalist with harsh vocals provides a more distinct growl (or black metal shriek) that is usually longer and stands out.
It's usually found in extreme metal subgenres.
The Top Ten
1 Towards the Pantheon - Emperor

Ihsahn - about 23 seconds long at 1:05.

2 Lucifer - Behemoth

Just play the song sample.
It isn't among the longest ones on this list (it's about 10-11 seconds long) but it sounds extremely evil. Goog job, Nergal.

3 Harvesters of Death - Shade Empire

A very brutal one and is about 24 seconds long (in the intro).
Shade Empire are an obscure metal band form Finland.

4 Silence Calls the Storm - Quo Vadis
5 Eyrie - Ne Obliviscaris

Xenoyr - about 16 seconds long at 7:55 (a song of 2017 that came out this morning, Oct 27)

6 Fire in the Sky - Hypocrisy
7 Everytime I Die - Children of Bodom

It's on the song sample so you can hear it. Not very long but I love how it sounds. Very good, Alexi Laiho.

8 Slit Your Guts - Cryptopsy

Lord Worm - 8 seconds (not very long but it's extremely gutteral, at 2:22).

Lord worm rules

9 Blackwater Park - Opeth

Impressing growl

10 Warpath - Hypocrisy
The Contenders
11 Return to the Morbid Reich - Vader
12 Turned to Stone - Obituary

About 11 seconds, intro growl

13 The Carrion Eaters - Broken Hope
14 Priests of Sodom - Cannibal Corpse

7 seconds - not very long compared to the others on this list but deserves an honorable mention.
Before you ask - in Make Them Suffer it's more like a scream than growl and I didn't add Make Them Suffer.

15 Psychosocial - Slipknot

Beginning growl is the best ever!
