Despite Eddie Van Halen being able to shred there is nothing METAL about this: YouTube - van halen - jump

I feel manlier watching a video from The Cure than that

Led Zeppelin aren't even Metal, let alone the first Metal band.

I really hate ranking my lists so the following are all in no order:

Entombed
Dimmu Borgir
Napalm Death
Cannibal Corpse
Down
Sepultura
Cattle Decapitation
Obituary
Mastodon (I guess they're relatively arguable, but even if they are an off-shoot or sub-genre I definitely think they're more a derivative of metal as opposed to general alternative or any other genre with that said.)
Necrophagist

I also find it important for me to note that while I am big on Priest, Sabbath, and Motorhead, I don't like mixing NWOBHM w/ true metal, so yeah, wanted to keep them out. And btw, anyone who thinks Led Zeppelin is metal really needs to bone up on music entirely.

In no real order (and bound to be altered later!)

Electric Wizard
Evoken
Entombed
At The Gates
Metallica (generally pre Black Album)
Iron Maiden
Pagan Altar
Megadeth
Opeth
Pentagram

iLoveBlood · 03-01-2008, 02:39 PM

in no particular order...

Between the Buried and Me
Converge
the Dillinger Escape Plan
The Black Dahlia Murder
At the Gates
Dragonforce
Every Time I Die
Gojira
Slayer
Iron Maiden

some are old favorites and some are just the most recent metal bands that I haven't been able to stop listening to, the BTBAM album Colors hasn't stopped getting regular rotation in my car since it came out.

1 Dog Fashion Disco
2 Acid Bath
3 System of a Down
4 Strapping Young Lad
5 Today is the Day
6 Slayer
7 Mr. Bungle
8 Pantera
9 My Dying Bride
10 Mindless Self Indulgence

I know some of those may not be considered "metal", but its close enough.
