Depends, metal is just such a vague genre.

A few are good, Metallica are the kings of the genre imo. Ozzy, Black Sabbath, etc.. to me is not Heavy Metal, just hard rock.

I love Metallica's older stuff,

Inb4 hipsters call Metallica "too mainstream".

I really wouldn't consider Fear to be metal, but more on the hardcore punk side.

Random Fact: Fear's lead vocalist, Lee Ving, played Mr. Boddy in the Clue movie.

Here's one of my favorites.

Not necessarily Heavy metal, but close enough

Hatred? Check.
Anger? Check.
Mermaid? Check.
Murder? Check.

Heavy Metal is awesome. I love LMS Killbook.

I like all metal, Except Black Metal stares at HitlerOnHacker
it's full of posers.

Which is why I only listen to NSBM instead of mainstream black metal.

Touché

Varg Vikernes hates the modern black metal scene. He says that everyone acts like stereotypical Negros.

I really can't stand Death, Black, Power.

I used to love metal but Tbh I'm kinda over it now.

Is Bal-Sagoth "mainstream" black metal?
'Cause I like Bal-Sagoth.

I'm a big fan of metal music. I've been listening to a lot of symphonic metal recently, anyone else like that?

I like Symphonic.
heck as long as people don't start subdiving aimlessly I'll listen
"no man that DSMVMC metal"
"what?"

I personally love old-school death metal and old-school thrash, I love stoner as well. has anyone heard of the band Entombed?

Post-Punk >>>>>>>>>>> Heavy Metal

He could be singing about Nazi's, but I think hes angry with chicken, and enforces the kitchen.

Who knows, I can't speak European.

Yes, I do love the comic book.

> Post says Ozzy and Sabbath are not metal

> No one says a damn thing

Why?

i know sabbath and ozzy are metal.

but it was his opinion that they were not.

There is a technical definition of what constitutes the Metal music genre. Wikipedia explains at some length, if anyone's interested:
