@woody_7007 - 'slit ur wrists'... since when has Heavy Metal had anything to do with hurting yourself. That's EMO. The two don't sound anything alike. Go listen to your RAP while you stuff your fat face and slowly die.
Anyway... lol. I like Disturbed, SOAD, KoRn, Slipknot, Dragonforce, BMTH, Billy Talent and uh... that's all I can remember.
My favorite heavy metal bands are Metallica and Iron maiden but I like other kinds of metal more like Melodic death metal.My 2 favorite melodic death metal bands are In flames and Amon Amarth.But there is also other metal bands like Lamb of god,Children of bodom and Opeth that I really like.
Alright well i guess i have time now and i'll post my favorites for some specific genres.
Metal (original)-Iron Maiden Progressive Metal-Dream Theater or Ayreon Progressive Death Metal-Opeth or BTBAM (tho they could be prog metal with harsh vocals...idk hard to describe) Metalcore-the Devil Wears Prada Hard Rock-Chevelle Death Metal-Necrophagist (really technical death metal...) then there's all those other "core" genres that i'm not sure fit in here but whatever Technocore(hells yah)-Sky Eats Airplane Hardcore-As i lay dying Rapcore-RATM mathcore-Protest the hero and ummm yah...thats a good list i suppose.
