Whether making memorable moments, pushing the envelope with explicit imagery, cinematic technology, or just telling the gripping tale of well-thought-out storylines, music videos have always been a beacon of expression, which is why we took a look at the killer videos in Roadrunner’s long history to find ten of our most unforgettable.

You’ve seen our universal choices for numbers 10 – 6, and now as we reveal our top 5, we get some insight from our Head of Video Promotions/ veteran employee Elias Chios as well as our artists on the cinematic excellence, groundbreaking creativity and overall bad-ass entertainment of these music videos. From the viral strength of DragonForce’s Sam Totman chugging a beer while Herman Li shreds, through Killswitch Engage’s Adam. D. playing a fair maiden, to Slipknot destroying a house in Iowa, we give you the finale of our worldwide-staff-approved Greatest Music Videos.

Check out there full article here.

    Woooooo, awesome!!! But I think Through the fire and flames is only in the top 5 because of its fame :| A video like Operation Ground and Pound should’ve been in its place… now THAT would deserve even more than 5th!!!!! :D

    5º? 1º? dragonforce simple woul’d not be compared with another band from the world because dragonforce is better than every band (Excpet scorpions)

    good luck finding a singer better than ZP. i know about a couple, but they both live in america, and it would be a hassle for you guys to work with one of them. if you were wondering who they were, chris robertson from black stone cherry, and chad kroeger from nickelback, (hes not exactly better but he’s tied).

    †LUH†,
    He had a custom guitar that became a production model. It was called the V-Blade. It was a string through with no vibrato bar in black or white. Don’t think there were any special pickups or anything. Not in production anymore obviously since he has a new signature.

    k ondaaaaa carnales son los mejores espero su proximo disco que seguramente sera de lo mejor como los anteriores sigan echando desmadre en los conciertos y para Herman ojala que siga sacando guitarras perronas igual para Sam aunque DragonForce ya no sea igual sin ZP ojala que encuentren a alguien con una voz parecida por que como la de ZP no hay bueno me despido sigan siendo los mejores del power metal
