Progressive, because, when done right, has the best of every genre

I really love just about all types of Metal, however I do prefer clear vocals over growling vocals. That doesn't mean I don't listen to bands that use growling vocals though, I just don't like them as much. So my favorite would have to be Power Metal. But then the lines between genres can be so blurred anyway.

I also like Mudvayne, too. Strange, eh?.... Although lately they've kinda blown for me.

Recently black metal has been of most interest to me, so I'd say that. Post-metal like ISIS, *shels, Rosetta, YONL, etc is also up there though...

NWOBHM is not a type of metal, it was a movement ffs.

It is commonly looked at as a type of metal though.

I don't really see how a movement that consisted of bands from Def Leppard to Venom can be considered the same type of metal.
