Its the opening riff in Dont Count On The Wicked that tops the pile for me.

When Louder asked us to put a list of our favourite 10 songs together, it was so hard that we decided the fairest way was to pick two each, they tell us.

So, without further ado: the best Billy Talent songs, democratically chosen by each member of As Sirens Fall.

As Sirens Fall Nothing To Lose (Billy Talent, 2003) Mikey (vocalskeys): Its really easy to forget how hard high school was for a lot of people, including me.

This song reminds me of that in both the best and worst possible ways.

This song conveys the feelings of grief effortlessly, and Id encourage anyone going through grief to give it a listen.

The melodies are beautiful and the words cut straight to the point.

Mix that with those crazy stops and chord progression what a recipe Perfect World (Billy Talent II, 2006) Adam (guitar): They opened with this track when I first saw them back in 2007, and they extended the intro and I loved it.

Viking Death March (Dead Silence, 2012) Richard (guitar): This is just a fantastically written song.

From the perfectly executed vocal harmonies building through the verses, to the massive main guitar hook that repeats throughout.

Combine those facets with a politically charged lyrical content, and a musical dynamic that ebbs and flows throughout the varying sections of the song and you have the makings of a true anthem.

Red Flag (Billy Talent II, 2006) Mikey: When it comes to Billy Talent, it just has to be done.

Line And Sinker Jason: My favourite live Billy Talent Song, after watching their set I can never get it out of my head.

The lift in the chorus given by the change of pace and the space the guitars give the vocal really makes this song for me.

An anthem that stands for the acceptance and equality that the rock scene is so known for, this song is lyrically very important too.

THE RIFF Its impossible not to move in some way to this song its heavy, funky-fresh and angry.

Oh so angry. This Suffering (Billy Talent II, 2006) Adam: This songs probably from my favourite album by Billy Talent.

I really like how the song cuts to just guitar and vocals on the build up to the chorus, and how it creates tension.

Then when the double vocals over the top of each other kick in throughout the chorus its awesome.

Dont Count On The Wicked (Dead Silence, 2012) Richard: I actually struggled to choose a second song.

It was so close between this, Fallen Leaves and Worker Bees all for the same reason: the guitar work.

Ian Dsa is able to switch seamlessly between intricate clean licks and crushing distorted riff work.
