Yeah, that's the gag!

At first, I though your list was true, but than I saw Poison, and the other 8.5 bands, you got me.

So I take it you don't like metal?

I was about to ask for some good recommendations actually. I have Oblomov, Neurosis, Pinkly Smooth, and Mr. Bundle (if that counts). I need some stuff for a total newbie and I don't really care what sub genre it is (although I can tell you I don't care for black metal, satanic metal, or symphonic metal).

There goes half of my stuff.

1. King Diamond
2. Taake
3. Burzum
4. Mr. Bungle
5. Black Sabbath
6. Drudkh
7. Emperor
8. Mercyful Fate
9. Judas Priest
10. Carpathian Forest

Don't listen to too much metal but guess my top would be
1)Disturbed
2)Metallica
3)Sevendust
4)Some Godsmack and Avenged Sevenfold
5)In Flames

1. In Flames
2. Dead By April
3. Altaria
4. Within Temptation
5. Nightwish
6. Marilyn Manson
7. Sonic Syndicate
