The ONLY decent thing on that stupid ass channel called MTV. On during the late 80's through the early 90's. Hosted by a cool person named Riki Rachtman, he'd feature kickass metal. He actually knows what he talking about. There is a new version of the show, but isn't good, or the same as the old one, because today's nu metal blows.
The old Headbanger's Ball was cool because that's when metal was metal. Fuck MTV.

THE best television program out there! All metal, all the time...
It was a dark day when they discontinued Headbanger's Ball, but now it has returned! Rejoice!

Show that shows the same videos from the shittiest metalcore bands in the world over and over again for 8 minutes, followed by 9 minutes of comemercials,followed by 8 more minutes of shit, 9 minutes of commercials for 2 damn hours. videos interrupted by that faggot jamey jasta (who deserves to die,considering hatebreed is shitty). sometimes they play a good video or two, but i usually get bored with all that shadows fall and unearth they play in a constant loop and change it before anything good comes on.
just download your own music videos, and cut out the shit.

A show that was once cool but is now a mere shadow of its former self. Too few metal videos, man...
If they show that godawful Zakk Wylde video again, I'm going to scream.

A metal show on MTV2. The shis pretty formuliac: Shadows Fall video, Unearth video, 9 minutes of commercials, 8 more minutes of atreyu/avenged sevenfold. 9 more minutes of commercials, shitty videos interrupted by Jamey jatsa (who deserves to die, considering Hatebreed is so shitty), an eighteen visions video, then more commercials, then another unearth video, etc. Sometimes they actually show good videos, but its usually those shitty watered down metalcore bands. I usually get tired before a good video comes on and i change it.

dont watch it, seriously, just download your videos.

A late night show on MTV that once showcased metal and hard rock acts of the time. This gave a big break to many aspiring talents (Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, etc.)
Let's get some pizza and beer and watch Headbanger's Ball
