I've gotta know!

Nosferatu with the intro by Coroner is my all time favorite instrumental. Earthquake from Electric Sun is pretty spectacular as well. Other favorites would be Grapes of Wrath by Rage, Merciless Onslaught by Metal Church, Thrash Attack by Destruction, March of the Crabs by Anvil, Dr.Phibes by Angel Witch and Endtime by Trouble.

Nosferatu is an unbelievable song. I mean, that is just pure air guitar bliss right there man. It sounds like metalized European Classical music!

Dr. Phibes is short but sweet and I've always been a huge fan of Thrash Attack. The latter is a song I'd love to hear live.

Buckethead.

Riot - Narita. Best instrumental ever. Period.

Joel's picture

Awesome choice. Shit, I just finished seeing them here in San Francisco!

Joel's picture

That's one hell of a song. Early Speed Metal classic I was listening to at work the other day.

Sentenced - Mourn off their Frozen album. Anathema - Violence off A Natural Disaster album. These two come to mind very quick for me.

Joel's picture

It's not technically a true instrumental since it's got a brief spoken word part, but Descending Curtain of Death is an amazing Death Metal song I recommend listening to (if you haven't already).

Jester's Dance by In Flames. I love it so much it's really good to lay back and relax.

DisgustingSemla's picture

Good choice!

Death-Cosmic Sea and Yngwie Malmsteen-Blackstar

Joel's picture

Both are wonderful songs.

Another true classic.

Was listening to morbid angel "blessed...." the other day...the instrumentals on that album are fantastic..."doomsday celebration" always makes me think of some horrible battle between otherworldly creatures in a wintry setting and the Richard brunelle penned "desolate ways" is one of the most beautiful acoustic guitar pieces I've ever heard. The closing piano bit "in remembrance" is nice as well....they all add so much to make listening to the entire album a magical experience! Still my favorite death metal album.

Joel's picture

I'm not really a fan of Morbid Angel, but Desolate Ways is really good.

Queen Catsie's picture

Graveworm's Threnody is my all time favorite.

DeathFuckinMetal's picture

Cannibal Corpse From Skin To Liquid! Totally awesome song.

Cage of mirrors's picture

Annihilator - Crystal Ann is a classic one and I personally enjoy Invocator-To a Twisted Recess of Mind

Joel's picture

The former is really impressive.

The Painless's picture

Love "The Minds Eye" - Dark Tranquillity, as well as Testament's "Musical Death (A Dirge)" - even better having witnessed Alex and Eric play this live! And of course "Christendom" by Paradise Lost!

Joel's picture

Musical Death is a great song. It sounded fantastic when they played it at the Regency Ballroom up in San Francisco on April 1st.

TooFastForLove's picture

Surprised nobody said Transylvania by Iron Maiden. Probably one of the most well known instrumentals in Heavy Metal history

Joel's picture

True.

NinnyHonestLiar's picture

Heathen - Guitarmony, Megadeth - Dialectic Chaos, Faith No More - Woodpecker From Mars, Cacophony - Speed Metal Symphony, Destruction - Thrash Attack

Nater90's picture

Buckethead, John 5, and many many more! Normally when I listen to instrumental music I listen to Dark Ambient & Classical.

Joel's picture

For me it's Classical too.

Megadeth - Into The Lungs Of Hell, Coroner - Arc-Lite. Coroner's instrumental tracks are awesome.

Joel's picture

I haven't listened to Into the Lungs of Hell in years. Maybe it's time I got back into it. Nosferatu is an incredible song.

MetallicA - (Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth
MetallicA - Suicide & Redemption

Joel's picture

Rest in Peace Cliff. You were the most noble member Metallica has ever had.

DraconianStark666's picture

Don't forget The Call of Ktulu

Joel's picture

How could I? It's a classic.

Odiumediae's picture

I like middle eastern themes. Nile's instrumentals fantastic. The first song of Nervecell's album Psychogenocide is great too, and Melechesh has some nice instrumentals.

Retep76's picture

Yngwie- blackstar

DraconianStark666's picture

What about Icarus' Dream Suite Op. 5? Black Star is great, too.

Mr.Something's picture

English Dogs - Brainstorm
Destruction - Beyond Eternity
Annihilator - Crystal Ann
Ghoul - Psychoplasm
Black Sabbath - Orchid
Black Sabbath - Fluff (Iommi is a god he deserves two tracks on the list)
Metallica - Anesthesia (Pulling teeth)
Misfits - Abominable Dr. Phibes
Judas Priest - The Helion (If this counts i realize it just an intro)
Mastodon - Joseph Merrick
Baroness - Yellow Theme (if they count as metal)

And an honorable mention to Heavens Fall by Gorgoroth, it's almost an instrumental aside from a guttural noise towards the end

Cheezyname's picture

Metallica - Pulling Teeth
Metallica - Orion
Metallica - The Call Of Ktulu
Metallica - To Live Is To Die
Van Halen - Eruption

Joel's picture

All are classics. To live is to die isn't technically an instrumental though.

More 'scene setters' than full length instrumentals I guess but 'The Ides of March' by Iron Maiden and 'Innocence and Wrath' by Celtic Frost are both great and also have that feeling of 'something real good is coming along shortly...'
