I think I like doing this as more of a rotating list than list my all-time favorites, it's more fun that way. Here's who I've been digging lately:

Sons of Otis
Ufomammut
Lento
Electric Wizard
Noothgrush
Warhorse
Graves at Sea
Ultraphallus
Orange Goblin
Iron Monkey

Hard to pick a favorite from Orange Goblin. Been playing "Thieving in the House of God" a lot lately, especially Black Egg. Been wanting to get around to Ufomamut...love that name.

These are the only metal artist who've released albums that have stuck with me. Kayo Dot isn't even purely metal, so I don't know how they fit.

Kayo Dot
Boris
Converge
Electric Wizard
Atheist
Necrophagist

Some metal bands I enjoy from time to time: Anthrax (purely Among the Living), Arsis, Wolves in the Throne Room, Dillinger Escape Plan, Megadeth (purely Rust in Peace).

Metal has always been hard for me. The majority of the stuff that people wish to recommend me is too boiler-plate or run-of-the-mill for me to even feign interest. It seems to work best when I sporadically find stuff I like on my own.

The only Orange Goblin album I have so far is Healing Through Fire but I'm certainly digging it. And, yeah, Ufomammut are really good, definitely worth your while.

No, I don't think so. I only have Erode the Person.

I haven't but I think I want to. The only bands on Janszoon's list that I even know are Sons of Otis, Electric Wizard, and Iron Monkey. Should I be excited about these other bands? ( I trust both of your metal tastes' so lemme know)

that's how I feel about Tool.

My metal list:

(in no particualr order)

Motley Crue
Metallica
Megadeth
Anthrax
Faith No More
Pantera
Down
Marilyn Manson
Black Sabbath
Guns N Roses

though, to be fair, I consider Motley, Sabbath, GN'R, and Down to be blues bands that play heavy, but for the purposes of this list...

Down is blues? Wtf. I can see how some of their stuff has a kinda bluesy feel to it, but to actually say they are blues... Idk maybe it's just a matter of perspective or something like that. I get what you're saying with Sabbath and GNR tho.
