Metal & Rock Music Recommendations

I'm looking for black metal more than anything.

I have some but looking for more (focusing predominantly on synths/keyboards/piano if possible)

Feel free to add me... That's my current last.fm to give an idea what I'm looking for

If you haven't heard another band in your life then maybe, yeah. :p

Im into 'older' music mostly, my top 10 bands would probably be something like

The Rolling Stones
Allman Brothers Band
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
Dire Straits
Jimi Hendrix Experience
ACDC
Cream
Jethro Tull
Rush

(+ all the work the bandmembers did solo so that covers Clapton, Knopfler, etc)

and I very much like blues (BB Kings earlier stuff, John Mayall, you get the idea).

ANYWAY, the deal is, I wanna get into some newer music (mostly for the chicks, heh). Ive recently started listening to Muse and Oasis (bought discographies) - Oasis sorta failed at impressing me cause they sounded incredibly generic and dull, but Muse kinda got me hooked.

ANYWHOOOoo, recommend me some 'new' talented musicians (if you mention people like Rob Thomas I will e-stab you) and bands that I can give a shot. Mostly rock (the progressive variety) and I will consider blues if its incredibly talented (dont want 20 year olds ripping off good musicians claiming it as their own ****) and would love some jazz.

Oh, and Tool is also out of the question. I hate those ****s.

Go.

Actually sounds sorta decent, reminds me of Pearl Jam heavily (atleast the Phantom Green song). Will give em a spin.

I need something not too heavy. But in the Hard Rock genre.
Three Days Grace, Seether or Shinedown-like.

And then maybe something similar to Muse?

Thanks.

Listen to Radiohead and Placebo

Radiohead is always good.

I'm looking for some intense extreme metal/ deathcore that sounds something similar to this...

I need to update my workout playlist, I'm getting bored with all the **** I have now, so the more reco's the better, thanks.

You might like Grunge music.
Give these bands a try, and if you like them I can show you some more that aren't as kind of more raw and less....listener friendly? I'm not sure what to label them as but you get the idea.

Nirvana
Soundgarden
Alice In Cahins (I think you'll really like these guys.)
Maybe some Dinosaur Jr.
