Probably Black Sabbath or Judas Priest or Thin Lizzy if they count.
Oh and Rush.

Come to think of it, Paranoid seems to have been around forever.
Every time I hear that song, it amazes me how long it's been going and still doesn't sound out of place.

Metallica. But I never liked them much.

Only metal bands I listen to now are Opeth, Mastodon, and Agalloch. I like some releases here and there by other acts, though wouldn't say I like the bands.

Since when are Rush, Thin Lizzy and Zeppelin metal? O_o

First metal band I listened too would have been Black Sabbath or Iron Maiden.

My next door neighbour had an Ian Gillen Band single which he stuck on a tape for me. I think that was the first metal I ever heard.

I am embarrassed to say this, but the first metal band I ever listened to was POD. I came a long way from that terrible phase.
