[Wolf Frankula]

1. Meatloaf

He weighed a ton all by himself.

Wolf

2. Bachmann Turner Overdrive (You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet). Big 'ol Canadian boys.

8. That was my first choice

I might also plump for The Guess Who. Those boys didn't miss many meals.

10. Randy Bachman was a member of Guess Who and one of his brothers was for a bit also.

Good eye there!

3. The Iron Butterfly

[NBachers]

4. Stooges, MC5, and Motorhead

Iggy and the Stooges: "Search and Destroy"

MC5: "Borderline"

Motorhead: "Ace of Spades"

7. You must be a Michigander. I'd add The who.

Eastside Detroiter here.

[NBachers]

12. I spent a few years in Kalamazoo during the days of John Sinclair and The Sunday Funnies

[GReedDiamond]

5. I'm gonna go with Green Jelly..."Misadventures of Shitman"

Warning it's more disgusting than heavy, but it's pretty fuckin HEAVY, nonetheless.

6. Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Ministry, Tool, Electric Wizard, etc., etc.

I love Led Zeppelin and they are one of the greatest, but they are not the heaviest rock band ever.

9. Rob Zombie

11. Accept

Accept was one of the first speed metal bands, and (at its founding) was fronted by Udo Dirkschneider, the ugliest man in rock and roll.
