Hells Bells vs. For Whom the Bell Tolls...

 Hells_Bells had quite an impact for the rock world of 1980.

Back_in_Black became one of the most popular albums in music history.

Of course METALLICA had to have their own version of a cool and intense BELL song.

Such great cool songs with the bell theme and sound in the 1980s.

However, BOC had their own cool take on the bell sound in the 1970s with, (Don't_Fear)_The_Reaper.
