I had to vote for Black Sabbath because they did lay the foundation for metal that others followed.

Yup. For sure.

I'm sure Metallica is the least influential on this list, but I like their music the most.

Hearing Ozzy doing Sabbath songs on the Speak Of The Devil album as a kid is what got me into metal, here it is some 30 years later and I was listening to the Never Say Die album earlier today.

I voted Metallica because they have such a wide fanbase and are the only band out of those listed that can still sell out entire stadiums. After 30 years in the business, that's definitely what I would consider influence.

I don't think you understand what the term influence means. It has nothing to do with being able to sell out concerts.
