Welcome to Round 2 of the Devil Horn Region. We've tallied up the votes and through your efforts, eight has been narrowed down to four in this region of 2012's March Metal Madness.

As you can see, the Devil Horn Region has been narrowed down to some of heavy metal's most classic pieces. Black Sabbath's 'Paranoid' is still alive, having chopped up Sepultura in Round 1. The pioneers of the entire metal genre have now advanced for a head-to-head war with Van Halen's 'Runnin' With the Devil,' which was able to wipe out the modern icon Marilyn Manson and his track 'The Beautiful People.'

We can't emphasize enough how close the battle was between Megadeth's 'Peace Sells… But Who's Buying,' and Dio's 'Holy Diver.' Dio took a quick lead, but thrash fans caught up to the late legend in a slow crawl to the finish, which at one point after thousands of ballots cast, showcased a Megadeth lead of only 'TH1RT3EN' votes.

Megadeth will now take on Slayer's 'Raining Blood,' which secured a clean victory over Korn's 'Freak on a Leash.' That's right people! We've got a battle for 'Big 4' supremacy in Round 2 of March Metal Madness! Cast your votes now to advance your favorite song into the next round in this supreme battle to crown the greatest heavy metal track ever. (Voting for Round 2 closes on Sunday, March 25 at 11:59 PM ET.)
