Reed's Top 10

Here is a list of my top 10 favorite songs from the month of June, 2013.

10: The Glass Prison- Dream Theater

A great heavy song which calls for extreme talent.

9: For Whom the Bell Tolls Live in Mexico City- Metallica

Personally I think the studio version drags a bit, so the live version takes care of that.

8: Kick the Chair- Megadeth

A nice smooth power metal song with great guitar solos.

7: Universal Mind- Liquid Tension Experiment

I wouldn't call this song heavy, but its flow is so great matched with great orchestration.

6: A Nightmare to Remember- Dream Theater

16 minutes of heavy to soft and back to heavy.

5: Through the Fire and Flames- Dragonforce

I had heard this song many times years ago, but at that time I didn't enjoy music like I enjoy it now.

4: Set the World on Fire- Symphony X

A nice and heavy song with a deep grungy voice which I like in this case.

A new band I discovered this month which I totally love.

2: Still Alive- Nocturnal Rites

Another band I discovered this month which has a little more Dream Theater to them than Masterplan.
