So you mean, post-hardcore, nu metal, alternative metal, metalcore mainstream? Oh... well in that case...[QUOTE="ChiefvsGordon"]I cant pick 1 but currently my favorites r Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, and Atreyu.MissRiotmakerDo you even know what metal is...?

Just wait until the real elitists come to this thread... Disturbed is alternative metal... Avenged Sevenfold and Atreyu are metalcore...I really think Children of Bodom is. :D I love all of their albums. :)silence790Children of Bodom is probably teh greatest all-around thrash band. I concur.
disturbed? atreyu? what the... thats not metal fer sure.
Mastadon, Meshuggah, and Opeth are my favs right now.
If I had to pick one particular band, I would probably say All That Remains. I do like Shadows fall and Disturbed as well. What do you guys think?gearsofAK
These are not metal.
The only good metal bands I know of today are thrash (Slayer) or weird punk/thrash/hardcore bands like The Exploited, who many people don't even like anymore anyhow.

These are not metal.
Yes they are.
They are a combination of hardcore, rock and alternative metal... they are not true metal, I'm sorry. Get your facts straight.[QUOTE="gearsofAK"][QUOTE="peeviness"][QUOTE="gearsofAK"]If I had to pick one particular band, I would probably say All That Remains.

Yes they are.
They are a combination of hardcore, rock and alternative metal... they are not true metal, I'm sorry. Get your facts straight.There's no true definition of metal. Metal has fused with everything now that music is so experimental.
Vehemence, Disgorge, Devourment, Suffocation, Ragnarok, Heinous Killings, Darkest Hour, and Banishment are all bands I really like at the moment.Squire_Ramza
The mexican band or the American band? the reason I ask is because there are two bands with the exact same name.

They are a combination of hardcore, rock and alternative metal... they are not true metal, I'm sorry. Get your facts straight.They are still a form of metal though.

I don't believe mallcore is metal, but we all have our own definitions I guess.

A very weak, askew representation of the metal genre as a whole, sorry I'd rather choose better.[QUOTE="gearsofAK"][QUOTE="peeviness"][QUOTE="gearsofAK"]If I had to pick one particular band, I would probably say All That Remains.

Get your facts straight.My goodness you like to argue don't you? well for arguments sake he did not specify "true" metal, just metal, and if it has metal in the genre classification, then it's freakin metal! But hey arguing on the Internet is like running in the special olympics...

I am a true metal head, and I could care less. It's the annoying elitists who give a damn.
Wow, some of you guys sure are on your high horse about this.
Who cares if someone's band doesn't fit your narrow definition of what constitutes a metal band? Everyone has their own feelings and descriptions. You can discuss these differences without trying to belittle people and fluffing yourself up in some display of bloated self importance.
Hmm...that's a list i wouldn't expect Darkest Hour to be on :PX360PS3AMD05
I listen to just about every type of metal there is except for pure Hardcore, I hate it:P

Please, do finish the cliche internet olympic speech, please. You'll be like the other half a billion people to use that pathetic line. It was funny the first time used, and got old real fast.the bottom line is, if a band is not on this website, they are in fact NOT metal:

QFT, which is why i like the union here, it's a cool place where no elitism is really allowed.With so many incredibly talented current metal bands, this is a difficult question. Here are the most talented imo:
Opeth
Katatonia
Agalloch
Isis
My Dying Bride
