I don't like much metal, but I like a bit metallic, so I guess they are my favorite metal band.

either of those band are hard enough to be called metal :P the real deal is any kind of gore metal or doom/death metal.. more blood, more satanic and more sacrifice

Hmm, probably Into Eternity.
Another of my favorites would be Slayer.

The level of ignorance in this thread about heavy metal is astounding and offensive. Nu metal is a misnomer, Slipknot and Disturbed are not metal in the least. Hatebreed is NOT death metal in the SLIGHTEST. Rammstein isn't much of a metal band either.

With that being said, the best metal band (and my favorite) is doubtlessly Iron Maiden. Like someone already said, they have never sold out and never will.

Definitely Iron Maiden. That band is a classic with awesome guitarists and powerful drum beats. Unanimously, one of the best bands still around.

The only Metallica that is considered Metal is some of the older albums like Master Of Puppets or Kill 'Em All for example, but the band itself is considered hard rock now.

No Metallica is still considered metal they just have not been very good lately.

Agree with Fyrefox's first statement though

Metallica are nominated for a hard rock grammy. Even the mainstream knows they're not metal. Do some research before you start saying things.

Faith No More for me. Though, they sing a lot of songs outside the genre of metal, which is good thing for me because I can't take to much of it
