megadeth
sepultura
metallica
motorhead
black sabbath
iron maiden
ministry
candlemass

pentagram (the doom metal band not the power metal band)

Depends on what you consider to be metal I guess...

Off your list I like: the mighty Sabbath, *some* Metallica and Sepultura, Ministry and Motorhead and have been known to listen to Iron Maiden when I'm feeling nostalgic... sssh.... Metal bands I prefer are Type O Negative, Moonspell, Tool, Deftones, Fear Factory, Cradle Of Filth, Rammstein, Spineshank, and occasionally Korn and Slipknot.

my favorite bands are: mercyful fate, metallica, death, morbid angel, megadeth, ac/dc, black sabbath, ozzy osborune, king diamond, deep purple, boc, iron maiden, rob zombie.

What bands I like changes. I'll listen to the same few bands for a long time, then suddenly switch.

Right now I'm into Lamb of God, Devildriver, and Mastodon.

My all-time favorite band is Tool, although I don't consider Tool metal.

i concider Tool to be Prog.Metal

I suppose one could classify them as such. But in my opinion they stand out from the rest of the prog metal crowd.

old sepultura, pantera, white zombie, slayer, megadeth, old metallica

I've never bothered with memorizing what band is in what category, but I think these bands are metal.

Black Sabbath
Ozzy Osbourne
Metallica
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
Rammstein

I don't listen to much metal, mostly just Ozzy.

If you like Ozzy Osbourne You should really give the first 4 Black Sabbath albums a listen. They are, (In Order of Release)

Black Sabbath (Self Titled)
Paranoic
Master of Reality
Vol. 4

Also, you may also be interested in the last Black Sabbath album with Ozzy Singing, entitled "Never Say Die". It Sounds more like an Ozzy Record....With Black Sabbath as his backing band. A lot of people don't like it because because it has Keyboards, Horn Arraingements , as well as more Orchestral arraingements.

i like the: we sold our soul for rock and roll album

my favorite songs form that album:snowblind, paranoid, sabbath bloody sabbath, nib

also try some ronnie james dio era black sabbath
dehumnizer
heavan and hell
and the mob rules

My list, since you have not limited it to a specific number, is this:

Blind Guardian
Iced Earth
Iron Maiden
Helloween
Dimmu Borgir
Emperor
Opeth
Death
Slayer (old)
Kreator
In Flames
Immortal
Amorphis
Thryfing
Finntroll
Amon Amarth
White Skull
Nile
Behemoth
Morbid Angel
Suffocation
Mastodon
Demons & Wizards
Carcass
Manowar
Rhapsody
Nightwish
Sinergy
Megadeth
Metallica (old)
Hammerfall

Tool
Rammstein
Korn
Slipknot
Metallica
Sabbath
Ministry
Iron Maiden
Pantera

Nine Inch Nails

I enjoy metal, but don't really obsess over it or listen to a lot of it. Right now the only Heavy Metal group I listen to on a regular basis is Soilwork

I'm told a lot of the bands I listen to that I think of as metal are really "rock". But I don't give a crap because they rule anyway.

My favorite metal bands...

Alice Cooper
Black Label Society
Dog Fashion Disco
Down
Elvenking
Falconer
The Hellacopters
Lacuna Coil
Machine Head (older stuff only)
Metallica
Monster Magnet
Murder City Devils
Orange Goblin
Savatage
Sonata Arctica
Revielle
Rob Zombie
Temple of the Dog
Trans-Siberian Orchestra

I'm currently looking into more symphonic metal and stoner rock. My favorite bands of the above are Savatage, Orange Goblin, Monster Magnet and my favorite of all of em, Dog Fashion Disco. Though I didn't like Mr. Bungle for some reason.
