My favorite genre, one that tends to be wide in spectrum and very encompassing of a lot of differences and influences.
I usually tend to go for the more of the "extreme" versions of it, and i might be the only one, but post your favorite bands!
I know we have a Dream Theatre fan. Also, please be aware that some band names are a bit... um, dark.
Personally, I like Black Metal, some Death Metal, Doom and a little of Thrash here and there. [Oathea, Negura Bunget, Suffocation, Intestine Baalism, Agalloch, Novembre, etc]
What are you favorite bands? Your favorite shows? Iron Maiden is playing soon in California, I've been considering to go see them, except the venue isn't the best.
I went to see Iron Maiden as a kid. my mom is a huge fan, she really loves metal. or loved. i dont know anymore. I dont remember much about the show, only that i was hiding under a seat because the music was too loud.
from all of my mom's records, the only musician i sort of enjoyed was Yngwie Malmsteen, he's a fantastic guitar player.. too good to be ignored.

from modern versions of metal...i like Deftones, but i'm not sure if they're considered metal these days. they seem to have channelled their sound into something else. something more quiet.

Dream Theater, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Guns N' Roses, Incubus, Ozzy Osbourne are some of my favourites..
I listen to metal for 5 years from now.
I started with heavy(Of course Iron Maiden where kings for me at that time,and I still love them)then black,death,viking,power, and now the ganre that I most love is mix of symphonic power and gothic,but I like industrial metal too.
My favorite band Therion.Their music is perfection for me

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Suffocation, Bathory, and High on Fire (these guys are more stoner rock than metal, but the singer does sound a lot like Lemmy).
I am so glad to find this thread. Although my taste in music has tamed down (my roommate hates it when I blast on Disturbed and Slayer,) metal has remained my favorite genre since middle school! I don't pay attention to the music nowadays, so I have to ask if there're any new (or revived) bands you recommend? I am up for anything from Alice in Chains to late Garbage to Opeth.

My boyfriend LOVES Opeth. He just got their logo tattooed on his back, hehe.
As for new bands? You should definitely check out High on Fire. I probably tell that to everyone who says they like metal.
Well,I'm listening to metal since I'm a kid,cuz my uncle used to listen to Iron Maiden and that sort of music,I'm now 15,wow I feel super young here! and I'm passing the"metal" tradition to my brother.
