First of all I'm not sure "heavy metal" has or can be definitely defined but still has caused lots of useless flame wars based on people being bias and subjective, and 2nd of all what is considered the "best" often ends up again being bias and subjective. But yeah that list is quite hilarious.

Oh, absolutely any "best of" list is subjective and quite dependent on who is voting.
