"All My Best Friends Are Metalheads" is a single by Florida-based punk band Less Than Jake. The two live tracks on the single are taken from a 7" track that the band did in 2000.

It was released on 4 July 2000 although the album was recorded in 1998. It is one of the group's best known songs. It is featured in the video games Street Sk8er and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, and was part of the soundtrack for Digimon: The Movie.

There are two versions of the intro to this song. In most cases, it starts with a clip from a Victor Lundberg speech called “An Open Letter to My Teenage Son.” The other is a clip from the documentary Heavy Metal Parking Lot.

In the UK Singles Chart, it got to number 51.
