hmm... if people consider Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin to fall into this category in their own right then I guess Thin Lizzy. The degree to which I like Thin Lizzy is quite scary lol.

I enjoy metal quite a bit.
A few mainstream bands:
Xasthur, Nargaroth, Nortt, Leviathan, Ulver, Deathspell Omega, Satanic Warmaster, Judas Iscariot, Nachtmystium, Fates Warning (1986-1994), Agalloch, Sculptured, Drudkh, Emperor, Immortal, Atheist, Darkthrone, Arsis, Lykathea Aflame, first 4 Burzum albums, Dissection, Impaled Nazarene, Alcest, Cattle Decapitation, Bloodhag, Negura Bunget, Wolves in the Throne Room, Grand Belial's Key, Averse Sefira, Doomsword, Zero Hour, Daylight Dies, Borknagar/Vintersorg, Winds, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Unexpect, Rotting Christ (going to see them in February)

Less mainstream bands:
Velvet Cacoon, Weakling, Make A Change... Kill Yourself, Catacombs, Strid, Mutiilation, Triskele, Wolven Ancestry, Astrofaes (whom I'm listening to now)

No, I do not blindly collect Black Legions bands, nor am I a black metal elitist, as many people presume.
