any cannibal corpse songs are intense :yikes:

"Ilyena" and "Wax Simulacra" by The Mars Volta are damn intense.



...and Cannibal Corpse is certainly NOT intense.

Retrovertigo-Mr. Bungle

I'm listening to Esoteric's "The Pernicious Enigma" right now and although its not really the type of (double) album that can be taken on a song by song basis, the oppressive atmosphere lends itself to a very "intense" listening experience.

/\ By far probably the most metal album I've ever heard.

THIS song is intense.

Like it or not, that album art is amazing.

.

Anaal Nathrakh's music is pretty intense, including this one:

Never Fucking Again



.

I'm getting tired of hearing that boring drumbeat in every damn heavy metal song. It never does anything interesting. It may as well be a machine gun.

Pushit, by Tool.
I still cannot believe the intensity of a song that's that technical.
I don't know how they did that.
It's so intense that I hardly ever play it because only thinking about it is usually anough to give me shivers.
